Missing Saturday!!

Today I had a funny experience of missing Saturday. I am in Taipei these days at my office head office. It was a working day today, as it was adjusted last week(holiday on Friday) for long weekend, but I was not aware of this. 

Today morning I went to office around 10:30 AM, thinking will finish my pending work without any disturbace of meeting and all. But when I reached my office I found office was already open and everyone was in place and working. I was totaly confused and thought I must be misteking and today is friday :p . Now before I could have started my machine, Alex came and told me everybody is waiting for me for meeting :O . I was still in confused state and directly went to meeting room. During meeting also in back of my mind, I was thinking if its Friday or Saturday.. but I was then kind of assured that I must have misteken and its Friday only.

After meeting when I logged in into my machine and saw the day then realized ohh its Saturday ..

My film making experience

This weekend I attended two day workshop on film making organized by MovieMechanix. It was a wonderful experience, though in very short time, They told us all basics and do’s and dont’s for movie making. As a spectator I never thought about details of film making, but after attending workshop I got clear picture, How many things and stages are required in Film Making. So many thing needs to be planned.

Even the worst movie we had watched so far, it had also required too many efforts

Film making can be broadly classified into three stages.

1. Pre-Production: It involves script writing, Direction ( Director interpretation of script, selecting actors, rehearsals, Visual and sound choices.

2. Production :It Involves use of camera (angle, movement, lenses, camera position, lightning etc) , Art Direction, choosing Actors and make them act according to script .

Using camera is very tactful and it one of more effective tool which gives meaning of a shot.

3. Post Production : Most time consuming part Editing and adding sounds. While editing one gives final touches to film and makes it watchable.

As for my first film making exp, I had only 1 evening( 2-3 hours) to think for story, script and to shoot i.e. the pre-production and production. Half day for editing. Anyhow late in evening I decided to make film on exams. So I caught Sonu ( My brother) and started discussing about story( just came in my mind while discussing, what should be story). As the restriction of 2 minutes for length of movie, I thought depicting a small dream of day before exam will fit best, So I explained him the story, and we started shoot by 8 PM. Dialogs we decided as the shoot goes . Took may retakes and did few rehearsals.

Finally, by 9 I was able to complete my shoot, and in morning I stated the editing part. completed my first short film of 2 minutes by 12 in noon . Though the final product was not gr8 but still thinking of first film making experience and in such short time, its not bad .

Happy Birthday to me :)

I got a surprise from my friends, Kundu and Birender yesterday on my birthday. Below are few pics

First mark of ProSUN baby :)

You must be wondering who is proSUN baby . Well let me introduce it with you.

It is a RAID Controller card (SCSI-SCSI & SCSI-SATA)*, which you can see soon in storage market. A product developed & owned by Proware Tech. Corp.

Seen lot of up and downs over the span of more then two years of product development cycle, But today finally proSUN 1.0 is released . Kudos to Team Proware ! Yes we did it

Thanks to Johri for bringing me into Proware team. I really feel gr8 to work with such team and on such product. It is really crazy, bunch of engineers chasing a dream and today the dream came true .

This product is special for me, since this is my first product on which I started working since its inception (you can ask for my resume to know what other product I have developed ), that too at this stage of my career . Also I have added a significant amount of code which is part of core in product. I really feel proud on it

The whole product is developed in house, i.e. Right from designing to development of hardware and software both from scratch and believe me developing such product (read RAID Controller where development of hardware and software is involved) is not everybody’s(read every company’s) cup of tea.

Well I wont be writing the feature set or any performance no here.. it will be soon available in press release on my company website, as we do official release in 2-3 days. So stay tuned to know more about it.

I would like end this blog with johri’s saying “Good day to be alive”.

Notes:

* A lot of more combination will be released in few months.

Law of Attraction

Have came across such situation.. that after you brought something new and you may find same thing is with many people in your surrounding. e.g. you purchased a watch /pen/car etc of some XXX brand.. and when you went to office you started realizing same watch is with few of your colleague!!!.

Well its not that it was not there before! its just you have not noticed that. Agreed? Our brain is like that.. Whatever we think or is going in mind, our brain start filtering data on basis of the same. Some thing like data-mining.

It is known as Law of Attraction. Well may of you may start goggling  on ‘Law of Attraction’. It states “you get what you think about”. Though it is a religious faith but, I think above theory gives it scientific proof.

If someone thinks, he has to achieve something, and he keeps that in his mind always.. Obviously he will start working towards it.and eventually will achieve that.

Now may of you will say, if so why people fails to achieve  there goles… hummm now it comes here distraction.. Remember  whenever we see think we will do exercise everyday and will make body like salman bhai :p. We ever bring new shoes, gym gears, tracksuit etc.. and enroll to cities posh GYM( esp. example for software engineers ) But after few days.. ” yaar  subah subah gym.. shaam ko jate hai na!!”… After few days more.. ” yaar yea gym jaa ke kuch nahi hota, we should join dance classes “

Well at first we were determined. We were focused and goal was in mind so we enroll to GYM, purchased things. after few days Morning sleep suppressed the goal in Mind. and thats it…

So ‘Law of attraction’ hold it, but there is another law , ‘Law of Distraction’

Can there be such world ???

Ofcourse.. But with human too
