While the magical world of films continues to bedazzle us, we tend to think of it in terms of the output. Often the connection between what meets the eye and the meticulous planning to ensure the detailing and import of visual communication is lost on us. This writer feels that some idea about what goes into making a film frame by frame can add to their magic. Vikramaditya Motwane’s latest 10-part magnum opus titled Jubilee draws the audience in with its stunning visuals and redolent colour-grading. We can’t help but wonder what went into putting up the signages of bygone decades. In a candid conversation that will be moderated by Maria Goretti, Motwane and VFX director Arpan Gaglani will talk about the creative process of recreating India of the 1950s.
