‘Imagination’ and ‘stories’ fuel our thoughts and ‘experiences’ shape our lives. In this studio, the facet of Imagination will come from exploring and drawing the surreal world of re-defined self-identity, understanding graphic and art styles and decoding futuristic tales. Further, the fictional world of stories will emerge from understanding and analysing the films of various genres especially animation or anime - Pandora's box of inspiration. Both these facets juxtaposed with an actual context brought the mise-en-scene to a real yet representational experience. Through exposure to varied creative fields like theatre, films, production design, animation, graphic design and set design through discussion and interactive sessions (hybrid) with experts from across the globe, and decoding of various genres of films, the students will be exposed to the world of scenic design. The core idea of this studio is to create a fictional world of imaginary spaces through the amalgamation of Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) with the Indian Classical Narratives. The representation will be done through the lens of the selected fictional film to create an imaginary world through narrative style drawings and scenes. The output will result in elaborate storyboards, illustrations and conceptual art.
