The Lens Flare Project
The Lens Flare Project is an Organization of Young and Vibrant Mass Media
Practitioners and Creative Artists, who believe in the incredible power of
films and art to transform lives and bring joy to people. We are a bunch of
crazy guys, who want to channelize our art, knowledge and expertise to
celebrate all the good and wonderful things around us, find out solutions
and make lives simpler , things easier and fill the world with gratitude and
happiness. Along the way, we want to discover and hangout with artists and
mass-medians who think like us. Now this sounds too sage-like for people of
our age who roam around in shorts (even at corporate meetings) but as Apple
said in 1997 - Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can
change the world, are the ones who do .
Our Vision
Now, this is getting too 'elderly' for us but we so want to share with you,
why we are doing what we are doing! Imagine a time, not too far away, when
the choice of plunging into an Art form will not be synonymous to a
difficult life full of struggle, pittance and the quest for that one good
opportunity to shine. You wouldn't need to know a Certain Big Guy or be
somehow related to someone, to experiment, learn and grow as an artist.
Imagine a time, when people will reach you, and present you with projects
you would love to do! When you could chat about your ideas freely with a
fellow artist, without being super conscious of the details! When you would
be able to earn respect, recognition and reward, just for doing things you
love the most.... This is our dream. This is what we call The Lens Flare
Project!
Lens Flare
Every year, we will organize a massive Festival, with amazing contests and
events, in which all those with an urge to create something, will get
incredible opportunities to do so, and with their creations, help simplify
lives and solve the greater problems of the society and the Corporate World.
We call it Lens Flare. Lens Flare is a platform that connects the humungous
pool of talent and creativity with the needs of a certain industry and the
society at large. The idea is to create solutions through films and allied
arts. Because we believe that films and art can transform the world, in
magnificent ways. And so, we have chosen to begin this journey with
Environment and Nature, which is not just the need of the hour, but a
perfect start - because Nature is where art begins and finds its
inspirations. Amazing! Sometimes, you just keep wondering at how the dots
connect and things fall in place.... Isn't it?
The Mission
Lens Flare should only exist, for building a platform which is open, free,
simple and self-challenging, to give meaningful and lasting opportunities to
talented film makers, artists, musicians and all those who enrich the
medium, to challenge, explore and revolutionize the experience and culture
of films, so as to make them ever more potent as agents of creative
solutions, joy and celebration. This is starting to sound too 'Pledge' like,
but we are sticking to it!
