Evolution of a Story!





A polished face, immaculate fabric, adequately lit up studio and a clear pristine voice projects to us the Television news . More than often the viewer dismisses it over petty glitches. This video, initially made for the NDTVmi, documents how a news story is conceptualized, implemented and takes birth. 

The movie is an amateur attempt shot on the SONY PD170 and edited on Avid Media Composer. 
The concept, storyboarding, camera, editing, voice-overs all are credited to the complete team.
Yamini Joshi
Sapna Dhanwani
Nit Ranjan Srivasta
&
Rajan Luthra.

Well, the 9 minute video would explain it all, that what is it that the viewer doesn't know about the 24hrs news he watches, cribs, talks, discusses, argues, swears, and again flicks back to. NEWS isn't just a pretty face, even if it's about terror, a pretty lady or the rich tomatoes!

Dear Rajan and Friends, hats-off to this small clip which speaks out clearly what it takes to make a report.May this clip be cherished for the forth coming generation of Reporters as an example of "what is expected from them".
I have found this video a great source of knowledge,how small minute elements of reporting are necessary for a three minute clip.
Its is the responsibility of people like you that such back stage small works get more exposure and knowledge in public.

Dhawal.
