15 students of LISAA School of Design, a premier fashion school, and CREO Valley have been selected by director Prashant Ranganath from Bake Flicks for his upcoming directorial debut, ‘Gully 7’. The selections were done during a campus placement drive at LISAA School of Design on Monday.
The film is about Vinayaka, a young man who dreams of popularizing cricket across the globe.
“Bake Flicks is coming up with a film based on cricket. Being an ardent follower of cricket and an educationist, I am delighted to see the zeal with which students appeared for the campus recruitment,” said Girish Keswani, director, LISAA School of Design.
He added, “With the technical and conceptual skills we impart to our students, I am confident they will add a lot of value to the film. The fact that the film is based on cricket has definitely created a buzz on our campus!”
Avi Keswani, director, LISAA School of Design, said, “We have always been confident of our curriculum and pedagogy at CREO Valley School of Film and Television and LISAA School of Design. It’s great to see that Mr. Prashant from Bake Flicks has expressed keen interest in not only our film-making but our design students as well.”
“It is heartening, to see a good number of students being picked for various production roles for ‘Gully7’,” said Rajiv Ganesan, head of department, film-making. He added, “Though the curriculum at CREO Valley is very comprehensive, there are some skills that can be acquired only by exposing students to an actual production that has deadlines and deliverables,”
Prashanth Ranganath said, “It is a collaboration which can better the film industry. An institute which is focused on bringing industry-ready young talent and we as a production house are excited with this vision. We hope to create meaningful content in which the whole industry takes pride.”
