Film Appreciation Session #1

Yes…We started at sharp 1:30 pm…. Bhargav was the host for Session #1….at 1:35 pm vikram and his friend joined us. and before 2 o clock Japan also joined us. He could have joined session on time but he was lost in finding Bhargav’s home….
We strongly discussed characterization of Guru (abhishek bachchan),aishwarya rai (i forgot her name in movie while writing….)and Guru’s father.Ritesh drawed our attention towards the symbolism used in first part. Jaimin (studying in std 9th) was quite viewer and inquisitive during the session. Japan throwed few query regarding single cam shoot or multi cam shoot…he was satisfied by knowing the continuity rules.
I reveled few mistakes ,lighting facts and special effects issues. Bhargav too was on the same track…he also explained his point of view regarding symbolism used in previous part. We couldnt finished whole movie.
we fell short of time…Ritesh and Vikram has quite different image of FTFM before they came… But after meeting FTFMites very first time he totally painted again the previous image of FTFM in his mind….Yes Just reading mail and blogs wont give you the feel of FTFM… B A Part of US….B A part of our activity….
B the Feathers of the spreaded wings of FTFM….keep track on yahoo group for next session next sunday…..
Next sunday A cinematographer (12 year exp in mumbai film industry) is joining us……
