Highlighting about the driving factor of Filmy Day, Vaibhav Kumaresh, Committee Member, TASI informs, “TASI has always served as a great platform for creating a closer dialogue between our film makers and our animation community. Closer interaction and awareness was also stressed on during the highly engrossing panel discussion with Indian animation film makers at Anifest India 12. Therefore TASI is very glad to be dedicating an entire day to this cause. On behalf of TASI, I would like to thank Team ACK and Team BIG Animation for their participation. It’s a great opportunity for our future film makers to learn about the challenges that await them.
‘Krishna Aur Kans’ has recently bagged the prestigious Asifa “Special Jury Award” in the best animation and special effects film category and is currently of the strongest contenders from India this year for the Oscars 2013 as it is placed amongst the top 21 animated films from across the world.
