“POOVA VAA” is finally out now!
@supaveen @vidusan_k 🌺 Directed by 🫡
We had the opportunity to create the worlds and stories we used to dream of making – inspired by the films that got us into the business of storytelling in the first place.
When
@supaveen @vidusan_k and
@jjjermiah first approached me about the project, we spoke about doing something unlike anything the Tamil community has ever seen. Our goal has always been the same; innovate, bridge gaps, and open windows into the culture.
Thank you to:
@mooks.vzn who made everything happen. There wasn’t a single idea that was impossible, or a single obstacle that wasn’t turned into a creative advantage.
@akram.hussain7 for being my partner in crime, and working with me from start to finish to actualize this story.
@themaazeffect and
@goodlocbadloc for being genuine masterminds; so much thought and care was put into every detail, from the bolts on the spaceship, down to the placement of the dirt on the ground.
My startBAD brothers,
@uzii1999 @talhahw @r34ali @hunain.amir for putting in work day in and day out, building the sets, scouting locations, designing moodboards, crafting visual looks, etc – we put our LITERAL blood sweat and tears into this. Thank you guys ❤️
Thank you
@clorenza_ the genius, for designing the costumes with such creativity & for going above and beyond to choreo movement, and design makeup looks for the characters that
@annnieup absolutely nailed with the H&MU.
Thank you to the 🐐
@mood.webm and your entire team (
@tarek.pdf @marielyseggen ) for painting a work of art with the lighting, to
@rayul.vfx for gifting this project with your unmatched visual touch, and to
@vkferrer for operating the camera and (literally) carrying the production on your back. Thank you to
@sara_reza and
@filmbyibby for documenting the hard work behind the scenes, thank you to
@amritahujaa for killing the CGI sequences.
Thank you to
@smrxthi , who was the final piece to the puzzle, and the heart of the film itself. Thank you to
@nicksain_ for enabling everything and letting us build our dream, and thank you to
@naypalmmarketing for working tirelessly to promote this project.
StartBAD to the world 🚀
