How I made the film Sand - The Love Without Trust

This world does not have any shortage of inspiration and it sure as hell is not going to look for some from this thin end of the www where I walk on. But I write not with the hopes to be read. I write because, should it be read, I better have something written down! Now that I have successfully set an unclear tone for the content you’re about to read, let me sum up it for you. This is the story of how I, a nobody who has always dreamed of to be film maker, have raised funds from family and friends for a film, shot it and now going to do a preview release of it. And by extension, this is to tell you that it is possible, SO YOU CAN DO IT TOO!


Having done writing jobs for an always disappointed boss, myself – with my horribly self-critical cap – I have attempted to make this as short and snappy as possible. If I can say so myself, about me now – I have made 5 to 6 films with short duration oops sorry those were just kids play with toy but trust me those little works leads me to do more and more and ultimately came up with solemn note in my mind to myself that this time you have to be serious man and sand – the love without trust happened as a 50 minutes long film. It has got to be something; I hear individuals say it could have been made into full length film. So here goes, brief.
Write Truthfully and Believe in Your Work.
There will be a range of reasons for you to not type that first word down or for the pen tip to go drynow and next. Go on and write the damn craze down. And if it passes through your own vital judgment – which I am sure is so incredibly intolerant and cruel that you’re always back to square one – and over to someone else, YOU decide what you make of it. The important thing is to worry about whose criticisms matter and whose absolutely don’t. Stand by one cherished criticism from a unbiased source, if it helps – even if it means ignoring accepted idea or the fad. Trust your sense, introspect – but don’t surrender to popular culture without giving it a thought. More so if that deviates you from YOUR story! Listen to yourself and believe in your story. See if it moves people, the world could use one less story floating around in the video streaming universe with no purpose.
Ground a Dream Squad
You know that there are multiple departments that come together to make a film irrespective of its duration. And it is crucial that you pick a bright leader for the relevant department. Pick a compressed size depending upon the extent of the film. You do not want a lot of people too. Let the department heads decide how much of an backing they require and let them obtain it for themselves. There needs to be an unsaid chemistry and possession about the team. solid and sound. The story is what buys you that kind of magnificence. If you have written the screenplay and it made you laugh, cry and / or tear it apart – your team should experience it too! The feeling holds its holiness for actors too! And when you’ve grounded your dream team, you will just know it – till then keep looking but DO NOT COMPROMISE. Not only have you wasted a script on a wrong team, by engaging them, you’ve delayed various dream teams coming together away too!
Budget & Finance
You have story. Well now you need Finance! If you heard ever in your life that making film doesn’t require money. Yes it’s true but depends on your project only. Unsympathetic realism concerning making a really a worth film is it’s required plenty of bucks. It is quite costly matter. The debate on this topic could go in more than a few routes, let’s for now we are going to focus on low budget film. But don’t be offend I have four choices for you go with one of this your story can be transformed into a film.
CHOICE 1 – Make yourself for free. Assuming you do have some awareness of film, you can think of story, write down a script, find some people like friends and family who would concur to participate in your project and borrow a camera as well. The consequence of this option is that the quality of your film would suck but hey at least you didn’t spend any money and you told the story. Irony is I have done this many times. Trust me the quality was next to suck word.
CHOICE 2 – Simply slice some of your money from your monthly salary. If you are working somewhere and got salary then this option can work for you. Depending on your project in a couple of months may be you will make something happen. Drawback here is that would you spend your hard earned money on something that only you care about.
CHOICE 3 – Lend some money from people you know. Why not? Ask everyone. Don’t be shy. You can choose to be egocentric or a filmmaker. Ego has no room when you’re on a flight that’s with no money. You can offer them to be a part of your film (and of course promising them to perk and keep your promise later). How I did. You can do it. I borrowed from my family and friends. Show them your script; Convince them how your project will work. Ask them to help you.
CHOICE 4 – Crowd Funding. Funding the project online. This method actually need some clarification for those who have no idea what I am talking about. Well the definition for this is “The practice of funding a project or venture by raising many small amounts of money from a large number of people, typically via the Internet.” There are thousands of crowd funding websites you can use or you can do it by yourself by putting all the information on your film website add your budget , let people know about the rewards , put the account number and ask people to donate in exchange of rewards or perk. Hey go to Google search for crowd funding websites let yourself know about this.  Or click here.

Pre-Production
You know what Lincoln said, right? About how if you had 9 hours to chop a tree, you’d rather spend the first six sharpening your axe! It couldn’t be more applicable for film making in comparison with pre-production. Though it was a short film, no stone was left unturned. We went through wide story-boarding sessions, shot division planning, shooting order and reading with the actors. The screenplay itself went through various changes/drafts, for conciseness and for enhancing the overall film experience. After finalizing the actors, rehearse rehearse rehearse!!! I have done that extravagance more than you can think. After such thorough planning also, things can go wrong on the day of the shoot, film making will never stop to surprise you. But lesser the injure the better, don’t you think?
Production
This part insanely rigid with fun as supplement but it is bumpier than those of your previous work. What matters more now is location. Start site seeing. Find places as your script required. Don’t forget to take permission for shooting. What now – hire everything as your dream team want to have on set? Command your squad to role camera, action and cut.
Post-Production
The third and final step in film making .This includes tasks such as the editing of raw footage to cut scenes, insert transition effects, working with voice and sound actors, and dubbing etc. Do it one by one.
Now your film is ready for screening! Congratulation. 
Be patient – crisis is inevitable – we had our share
Despite methodic and relentless planning we had our share of crisis. Of course we managed to resolve them somehow, evidently now that the film is ready!
  • The actor who was supposed to act as lead in the film first, had to quit. This was about 15 days before shooting. We then had Dev onboard. Another actor was supposed to play the anchor character had to quit then we had Archana onboard.
  • Two of the locations we were supposed to shoot in, suddenly seemed difficult. This was 2 days before shooting
  • First Day of shooting we were on the spot of shooting with junks of shooting equipments and the rain start pouring on us for 2 hours.
  • First day was worst day, we started shooting in a flat previously we took permission but after 11 o’clock at night neighbours of that flat started to complain and finally the owner came up and we had to stop the shooting half away and that particular scene we had to manage some other flat next night and we shoot till 3 A.M of morning.
  • The climax of the film was about to shot with crane but the location was in a kind of place where we could not take the crane! Drone was not in budget.
Package it!
Seal it with style! Package the whole experience. yell out – tell the world what you have done because nobody else will– thank people – give away perks as promised – give away perks that the contributors will love to flaunt! Use social media wisely.

10 Mind Blowing Indian Inventions

Hello, wish you all are fine. Today I bring something new that you may never knew about or heard before. We use these things in our everyday life but we never knew these things were invented in our very own country India. This article will blow your mind that our ancestors help the world to be modern. They (our ancestors) invented these and have put the class in our lifestyle. Okay, without wasting more time let's skip to the  main part.

India had played a very important role to shape the face of the current modern world we are living in. Bellow mentioned 10  mind blowing inventions in India which you may be proud of. So here we go -

1. BUTTON: 
Buttons were first used in Mohenjo-daro for ornamental purpose rather than for fastening. They were first used in the Indus Valley Civilization by 2000 BCE.

2. CHESS:
Chess developed out of Chaturanga, which is an ancient strategy board game developed during the Gupta Empire in India around the 6th century AD. Now you know why Vishwanathan Anand is such a pro.

3. SCALE RULER:
Rulers were first used by the Indus Valley Civilization prior to 1500 BCE. Made of ivory, the rulers found during excavation, reveal the amazing accuracy of decimal subdivisions on it.

4. SHAMPOO:
Can you believe it? The word ‘Shampoo’ is derived from chāmpo (चाँपो). It was initially used as a head massage oil for the Nawabs of Bengal during the Mughal Empire around 1762. It evolved into shampoo over the years. 

5. SNAKES AND LADDERS ( SAAMP SEEDHI):
The game, Snakes & Ladders,  was invented in India as a game of morals. Later it spread to England and eventually introduced in the USA by game pioneer Milton Bradley in 1943.

6. DECIMAL SYSTEM, QUADRATIC FORMULA AND ZERO:
It was in 7th century CE when Brahmagupta found the first general formula for solving quadratic equations. The decimal system (or the Hindu number system), which was a precursor of the Arabic numeric system, was developed in India between the 1st and 6th centuries CE.

7.DIAMOND:
Worldwide, India was the only source of diamonds until the discovery of mines in Brazil in the 18th century. Almost 5000 years ago, diamonds were first recognized and mined in central India.

8. FLUSH TOILETS:
Hold on haha! Flush toilets were first used in the Indus Valley Civilization. These existed in most homes and were connected to a sophisticated sewage mechanism. But worst part is that Indian still don't have sanitary toilets. 

9. STEEL AND METAL WORKS:
Ancient Indians were pioneers in metallurgy. High quality steel was produced, almost two thousand years before it was understood by the West. One of the most remarkable feat in metallurgy: creating a seamless celestial globe, was invented in Kashmir. It was earlier considered impossible to create a metal globe without seams. Now Indirectly India is behind the Iron Man. LOL.

10. PLASTIC SURGERY:
Yes, you heard it right. Indians were pioneers in Plastic Surgery too. It was carried out in India as early as 2000 BCE.

So, we’ve always been a cool country. 😉  History is testimony to it. So what’s stopping you from being innovative? Go, win the world.

DJsAm - The Musical Beast who give sleepless nights to all top DJ of North-East India.


Hi readers, wish everything going on well in track. In this article I bring something not usually happens in blogs. I bring one of the best musical beast of North-East India. He is a DJ yes you got it a Disk Jockey.He is better known as DJsAm. Behind every successful DJ Event of North-East he is the reason for that now a days.From Lower Assam to Upper Assam to Meghalaya to Arunachal to   Sikkim he is everywhere of North-East India, Ask every kid in the town who is their favorite just one name comes out of them is DJsAm. He is smooth playlist, he is cool enough to make girls fall instantly with his perfect style of playing, and he is inspiration for thousand of youngsters. One fine day we had some chit-chat about his life, ups-down, music & fun. I have penned down for your good read. Check it out below.
DJsAm Spinning

Me: Sam thank you for joining with the readers of youngmantras, so how are you?

DJsAm: I am smooth with the road out here. I am good & jolly.

Me: Sam first tells us why you choose to be DJ?

DJsAm: Ahhh, I don’t ever thought I would be a DJ. Well it happened in 2012. It was a turning point in my life. 2012 was best and worst for me. I had a troubled depressed life, Family troubles and little heart ache you know. I was getting depressed day after day. I was studying than at IDEMI, Mumbai. I was inquisitive and still I am with big web. But tragedy sucked and kind of bunked and lost my classes. Used to be alone, sometimes locked in the dark. Then came the music in my life, I used listen a lot of hardcore, hard trance, metal kind of genres of music, out of depression actually. While listening I would go through my whole life I found peace somewhere.  Then I tend to listen other peaceful and happy genres too like country, classic, uplifting trance.  The club tunes, the hip-hop, rap came after that. So in short I found peace in the music. So gave a thought, I love the music when I keep listening. It keeps me alive and jolly, why not make it a careere. And so, here I am a DJ.

Me: Wow that is really quite a nostalgic journey. So how you will define the profession DJ?

DJsAm: DJ means Disck Jockey. A DJ is a playlist with soul. Weaving and mixing the tunes with emotions of the crowd. All alive.

Me: Which city or Town of North-East India you love to wave your playlist most?

DJsAm: It is hard to tell. Guwahati is the main city in Nort-East India, so it is the hub, you have the diversity of music and loads of commerciality. Personally I love spinning in the hilly regions like Arunachal Pradesh, Shillong , Dimapur , Diphu, every kid in the town knows the music. They have the natural energy to dance and make the night go happy. I spinned up till 7 A.M in the morning there. I love them, and love to soon there mostly. In Assam it is kind of different. Lower Assam is challenging than upper Assam. Upper Assam tends to be acquainted with the club scene and lower Assam ready to have it all. We just need to spread it up.

Me: Sounds cool enough, Sam there are lots of Kids out there want to be DJ so maybe it will help them if you tell them what is needed to be a DJ?

DJsAm: Everyone will say music but I will say combination of Music, Network, Money, Online Presence, some Internet savvy brains, a long list supporters , a leader inside you, the managing aspect , knowledge of DJing history, and the never give up attitude. Let me elaborate some of these , Music is the foremost because DJing is all about music so you need to have bust knowledge of music, Network in a sense better you know people the better it helps you in the long run, if you have money you can buy the stage or create your own events, online presence is must now a days more than half of my own gigs are booked from people from facebook,. There will be time you know when everyone you know will against you or what you do, so you need a positive attitude to standby and go-on.

Me: How you define success?

DJsAm: (Laugh) It cannot measured dude, cannot be measured just like the beauty. Its the limit you perceive your success to be . There is no harm in it, but once you reach your limit you will want more. So there is no limit to success or it cannot be measured. It only what you perceive your success to be.

Me: Great, so let’s have some fun ask-tell game, what you say?

DJsAm: What I supposed to do?

Me:  Nothing just answers comfortably.

DJsAm: All right, I am ready with my guns blazing.

Me: Okay, so name three things you can’t live without?

DJsAm: My laptop, Internet & Mother Nature.

Me:  Name five things you never forget to take with you on your journey to play?

DJsAm: My Hard Disc (HDD), Chargers, A pair of T-shirts, a pair of Jeans and my mobile phone.

Me: Interesting, okay Sam, whom you will credit your success?

DJsAm: My failures.

Me: So philosophical, tell us if you have a wish to live a life of any music legend whose life you would love to live?

DJsAm: (Laugh) My own. I don’t compare myself with any of the legend & I don’t want to live any of their life either, I respect them but will live and create my own life.

Me: So self-sufficient.

DJsAm: Yeah, self-sufficient and self-satisfied.

Me: If there is a bag full of US$ and a high end DJ machine and you can take one only, which one you will take?

DJsAm: I will rather divide the money take a lot small modular DJ controllers.

Me: Finally any words towards your fans and music lover?

DJsAm: Music is meant for sharing. Spread the love and whenever you feel down plug in your head-phone and tune your favourite track. You would be happy, you did. Love you all.

Me: Thank you Sam for your valuable time. It’s nice to have you in the blog. Thank you so much. Wish you more success and good health.

Releasing the zero budget hindi short film Soch - The Thought

Welcome to my blog once again. For sure you are here for the link of Soch - The Thought that's why I will not take much time of yours. I know you don't have that much time due to your busy schedule, do you know this time and business (busy-ness) for ourselves only brought us where? A place where there is no humanity, there is lack of personal communication, there is loads of ignorance,there is loads of selfishness. We don't have time look after others, don't have time to look around, don't have time to raise the voice against crime. We are on the way to office and there are bunch of goons beating a innocent people we don't stop because we are already late for the office. On the way to home at night there are some shit-headed people molesting a girl we never try to stop them even don't call the police because we are late for the home and our family members are waiting for us. Still we think we are human? Candle light march doesn't make us human after letting happen the same thing we are marching for! It's high time to reconstruct the humanity, to repair our soul , to fill the heart with feelings, we need to change the SOCH  (The Thought). My film is based on two different thought processes describing on a single plot. Wish my little work with amateur hands can make a difference. 
I want to review my own work because I think from my review you can find some answer of your question after watching it.
1. Technically there is little problem with the volume if you are watching it in you cell-phone without head-gear, you will find it little low without ear-phone. Why this happened? - I have edited the film and the PC was connected with woofer that was in the peak of the volume that's why I could not catch the standard volume. So I will recommend you to put the ear-phone on while you are watching it.  
2. In a scene - group of guys check-in the frame and within a few seconds they goes out of the frame. It looks little faster. Why this happened? - It was Friday noon time and being a Muslim I don't miss the Friday Prayer like every other Muslims, so we were running a little out of time. I decided to took the shots of that scene within two shots. I was not expecting it will look this much faster.

Anyway I have already consumed valuable times of yours. You can see the link below, click and watch. Put on ear-phone. Don't forget to feedback.

Experience of making a zero budget film

Soch-TheThought is a 5:23 minutes hindi short film that has been shoots with low quality handicam. No crew members have used as there was no any filming instruments like lights, Reflectors, Tracks, Trolly, Make-ups, Boom Mic, even I din't used the camera stand or tri-pod or multi-pod. There was no cinematographer so I was handling the camera along with direction , as I am not a professional cinematographer it was obvious of shaking camera when I moved for panning so it was really a big problem for me, as there was no stand for camera so I used different angle just get rid out of shaking. As it's a zero budget independent film I have requested some of great friends like Maahi Salman Ross Kaif Babu Khan Lotip Maya Chowdhury Arif Chowdhury Dev to help me out on location and asked them to act in the film , though they are not actors or even they don't have that much knowledge of acting still they did accept my request and did what I asked for. Local people of the location helped me during the shooting with water supply as it was really sunny day and frequently everyone used get thirsty. I couldn't take long shots though it was necessary in some scenes as i couldn't afford the dubbing charge of the studio. I edited the film as there was no one who will do it free for me. I tried to tell my story and pass a message through a film cause it can strike the heart as well as head of responsible and sensible persons. Wish everyone will like it. I remeber once someone told me " Xahid Quality doesn't matter, all matter is your content" , on the basis of this phrase I started the film without the budget and without thinking about filming instruments and crews . You know where there is will there is a way. Anyway let me come to the main point is film has only two days to enter the web , I will share the streaming and download link of the film. Please watch and feedback when its comes to you. Tons of love for reading such long post. Thank you.
