Harmony in Frames and Beats - A Collaborative Media Project

In an exciting collaboration that pushes the boundaries of modern media, a dynamic team of creatives has come together to announce an immersive documentary film titled “Calcutta Then - Kolkata Now & Forever”. Mentored by Srinath Rao, this project seamlessly blends visual storytelling with musical artistry, marking a unique partnership with Students of Modern Media (SoMM) for the “Sound Design & Mixing” course.

The backbone of the visual narrative is built upon captivating shots captured through the lenses of the Canon EOS 77D and iPhone 7 by Srinath Rao. This conceptual vision sets the stage for a documentary-style film unfolding from videos shot exclusively for Instagram reels and story feeds.

At the core of 'Harmony in Frames and Beats' lies Team SoMM, responsible for Sound Design & Mixing. Collaborating with students enrolled in the course, this team brings technical expertise and creative flair, ensuring that every sound, beat and note resonates harmoniously with the visual narrative. This collaborative educational initiative enriches the project with a fusion of professional expertise and fresh perspectives.

A pivotal element in this artistic symphony is the inclusion of the rhythmic talents of Beatboxing maestro Arindam Das and the soulful guitar compositions by Siddhant Seth. Their collaboration introduces emotional depth that harmonises seamlessly with the visual narrative, creating a truly immersive experience for the audience. Their intricate work weaves together a tapestry of audio elements, elevating the storytelling experience to new heights and ensuring that every beat and note resonates with the audience.

“Harmony in Frames and Beats” is not just a project; it's a celebration of interdisciplinary creativity. This collaboration with Students of Modern Media (SoMM) highlights the power of bringing diverse talents together to create a sensory journey that defies conventional storytelling. It not only breaks new ground in documentary filmmaking but also showcases the potential of collaborative educational initiatives. The fusion of Concept & Photography, Beatboxing, Guitar, and Sound Design promises to captivate audiences while demonstrating the power of interdisciplinary collaboration within the educational realm.
