Nature lovers feel connected wherever they go!  I experienced this lately when I visited my cousin who lives in far away San Diego.  The cabbage butterfly I saw in the botanical garden of San Diego reminded me of Dr.Surya Prakash from whom I had learnt that the Indian cabbage butterfly migrates by flying 300 to 400 miles a year. It  is one of the three in India which migrate long distances.   Want to learn more fascinating facts about butterflies from Dr. Surya Prakash?  See the short film in our you tube channel 

The sparrow happlily mud bathing on the ground of an open restaurant reminded me of the sparrows mud bathing back home.  It also made me appreciate the fact that the restaurant owners who had grown local flowers all around, had made the ground  inviting for birds with leaf moulds and mulches.      

On a cruise in the Soth Pacific Bay, the tour guide kept calling attention to the naval might of the USA and the ships and drones which had occupied the shores of the Bay.  On one side a large group of Cormorants were busy fishing, reminding us how nature, especially birds, can adapt anywhere.  The sea lions displaced were huddled up on bait barges (because of which the cruise was called "Sea lion Cruise").  Having seen the interaction between a mum and pup sealions on the Pacific coast near the Torrey Pines Reserve,  the bait barges seemed like a zoo.  Again, the foresightedness to put these barges for sea lions lazy enough not to go to other available shores? was worth appreciating.  

Want to feel some of these emotions I went through?   Watch the short film at

Importance of VFX Technique in Film Industry

Posted by arenaanimationudaipur on June 15, 2017

 
Forum Post

There’s often discussions about the costs of visual effects.But for now let’s take a look at something seldom discussed and that’s thevalue of visual effects.

What are the benefits of visual effects?

Freedom for filmmakers, writers and directors to tell anystory they like.  Humans have beentelling stories since communication made it possible. Verbal and written storytelling can and does cover everything imaginable. A writer has full freedom todo anything including having their main character turn into a giant cockroach.Myths from around the world describe actions and creatures that don't exist inreal life. Even the Bible has a number of stories that would be difficult torealize beyond the written word and paintings.

The various mediums of storytelling all have their place andgood stories are tailor made for each medium. Converting a novel to a filmscript takes specific writing skills to boil the essence down to 2 hours. Italso means that writer descriptions that would form images in the readers mindnow need to be generated in photographic reality for the movie viewer.

Visual effects cover such things as:

 

Creating entirely virtual shots

Changing the background

Creating the background

Adding actors, characters or creatures

Changing actors

Adding objects or props

Removing objects

Obscuring objects

Specialized speed changes

Fixing problems on the set, adding eye effects, removing wignetting, etc. Arena Animation is a leadinggraphic designer in Udaipur provides Broadcast Training Institute in Udaipur.

The visual effects team works closely not only with thedirector but also the cinematographer. Working with the production designer wecan expand the sets that are built or build sets that would be impossible tobuild for real. Working with the stunt team we can remove their rigs (carramps, wires), help to provide the visuals needed while trying to maintainreasonable safety and can extend or create a stunt if it’s not possible.Working with the special effects* team we can hide their rigs if required andexpand and enhance what they’re able to provide. Working with the wardrobedepartment we can expand the capabilities of their costumes when required (IRONMAN, BLACK SWAN, etc) Each of these departments are very helpful in providingvisual effects with what we require to get the best material.

Visual effects isnormally focused on the augmentation or modification of live action but visualeffects artists and tools are also used for:

Computer graphics animated films (Pixar, Dreamworks, SonyAnimation, etc)

Video games

Previsualization

2D to 3D conversion

Titles

Logos

Special venues and multimedia (in addition of course tofilms, television and commercials).You must have watched the movies “Sultan" and “Bahubali"There are so many scenes and sequences which willgive you goosebumps. The cost and the time spent on capturing the situation ina real way is really high. Therefore visual effects are used.The usage ofvisual effects is a double edge sword. You have to make sure that it appears“real” to the audience.

I hope you can understand the importance of VFX. Are youlooking for the professional VFX animation designer and join the qualified VFX Animation Courses in Udaipur?Than Arena Animation help you to find it.

Located in the center of a reserved forest and spread in the area of 1727 sq.km,Tadoba National Park lies in the Chandrapur district of Maharashtra. One of the largest and oldest national park, which has infinite treasure trove of large number of species of trees &plants and wildlife like panthers, tigers, wild dogs, barking deer,sloth bears, jackals, bison, sambar, herd of deer to name a few. Overshadowed by teak & bamboo, and with a charming landscape of rugged cliffs, marshlands, lakes, etc., it's full of different flora and fauna, which was once privileged by shikaras.

According to the 2016 National Census on Tigers,there are about 88 tigers in the reserve, which is one of the highestc ount in India. Here are some highlights of the park…

  • The park is open for visitors from October to June every season and remains closed one very Tuesday.

  • The botany of Tadoba forest is of Southern tropical dry deciduous type and is spread on around 626 sq.km.

  • Teak is the foremost tree species in the forest and there are a few lakes, which makes sure the park has rich water resources throughout the year.

  • Most part of this forest lies in the hilly area, thus many hillocks and terrains provide shelter to the wild animals here.

  • It has a thick forest area, deep valleys, smooth meadows and a great atmosphere to stabilize more numbers of tigers.

  • The main attraction of the Tadoba National Park is Jungle or Tiger Safari in an open top gypsy.

  • One can find some of the Central India’s best domestic woodland bird species in this forest.

  • Accommodation facilities are available and are mainly concentrated among two of its popular entering gates i.e.Kolara Gate and Mohurli Gate.

The Tadoba National Park is separated into three separate forest ranges, i.e. Tadoba north range, Kolsa south range,and Morhurli range, which is organized in between the first two.There are 2 lakes and 1 river in the park, which gets filled every monsoon, the ‘Tadoba Lake,’ ‘Kolsa Lake,’ and ‘Tadoba River.’ These lakes and rivers give vital components needed to sustain the park’s life.

Best Time to Visit Tadoba

This park gives a large visual treat of wildlife. To view the actual wildlife, the best time to visit is from February to May. During this time, tigers ,gaurs, herd of deer and other animalsare easily seen in large numbers. Exploring these animals give exciting experience and big treat to a trip.

How to Reach Corbett
Nagpur is the nearest airport from where it takes 3 hour taxi rides to reach the park.Chandrapur and Nagpur are nearest railheads.Nearest bus stop is Chandrapur and Chimur, but bus or cabs are also available from Chandrapur to Mohrali Village.

Interlinking of Rivers

Ken Betwa Link

  • The figures on the water availability in the Ken and Betwa rivers and their water balance have not been shared in the public domain and remain shrouded in secrecy. The Detailed Project Report (DPR) has been prepared by the project proponent and, against all good practices, no independent study has been commissioned on the project. An analysis by the South Asia Network on Dams, Rivers and People shows that less than 10 per cent of cultivable land in Bundelkhand will benefit from the project, even if the questionable claims on paper are taken on face value. In reality, this is likely to be even less, since, as noted in the Forest Advisory Committee meeting minutes of March 30, 2017, few Indian hydroprojects, if any, have delivered their claimed promises.

As compensation for the pristine tiger habitat that would be inundated by the project, the Water Ministry had agreed to acquire about 8,000 hectares of forest land from the Madhya Pradesh government and revive them as forest.

But the FAC said this land was not good enough as it was fragmented, and, to meaningfully revive a forest that is part of tiger habitat, the land acquired ought to be contiguous. This would require, according to the FAC, “revenue lands/non-forest lands by way of purchase or otherwise by the project proponents and the government”.  Read more at
