9th YEAR DECISIONS

Dear friends,

Various programs and meetings had been conducted for the last 8 years under our Film Literature Confluence. An entirely different Cinema Sangamam, program had been conducted last Sunday, 13^th January morning.

Usually our programs will be conducted in the auditoriums, that may be a marriage hall or Discovery book house, and everyone will come there, and the meetings, discussions and interactions will be conducted. But this time, in a different way, Cinema Sangamam had been conducted in the Chennai Book Fair.

As the fair starting at 11 AM, met some friends before that itself in the huge stage in front of the fair, and then met many friends in the small stage inside the fair and talk to many while walking also. Talk about many things.

It is happened only because of some decisions taken earlier. We decided to change the style and schedule of our confluence in this new year, and so collected the advices and opinions of the friends came to this Sangamam also.

According to all those opinions, in this beginning time of 9^th year of our confluence, we had taken 4 important decisions.

First of all, decided to conduct Cinema Sangamam now onward at your place, time and convenience, instead of conducting meets by myself and inviting you for that. If five or ten friends joint together and fix a venue for Cinema Sangamam, I will come there and we can talk about cinema.

You know, the topic for Cinema Sangamam for the time being is ‘How to Make Films in Low Budget’ and we can discuss about it. It will be useful not only for film producers, but also for artistes. directors, technicians and students. The details of this programs will be announced soon.

Secondly, we are decided to share the details and updates of our Film Friendship Production regularly, especially about the shooting of our first production.

As third one, before starting the shoot, we decided to select the artistes for its Characters in a week. Artistes for heroine role and four supporting roles have to be selected. The details will be in following posts. The ad for this is posted in facebook and Whatsapp. Interested candidates can be send their photos and details to my email. And please do not call and disturb me. I am making this as a ‘request’.

And last, as our Confluence is completing 9 years and entering into the 9^th year, we are decided to conduct the 9^th Anniversary very soon, most probably after the shooting of our first film. The details will be announced soon.

Please be with us continuously through sangamamtv.in, youtube channel and filmfriendhip.com site..

Let us meet again..

Special Project Request

Dear Friends,

Even facing many struggles and hurdles, our 'Film Literature Confluence' is going on successfully for the last 8 years continuously. In this occasion, I am thanking all the chief guests, participants, patrons and friends, who made this attempt a success.

In the Successful 9th year, we are marching ahead in a broader way. The First Step in that way is; 'Institute of Practical Cinema' and 'Film Friendship Production'.

The aim of these two is, to make everyone understand 'How to Make Films  in Low Budget'. Not to make Low Budget movies, but to make movies in Low Budget!

In this way, our current target, the dream project is; making the novel 'PONNIYIN SELVAN' as a film in Tamil.

I think this is a chance, given by the Time, to make a film, the persons like ‘Puratchi thalaivar’ MGR, Kamalhasan, Manirathnam and many want to make.

In the current situation, everyone knows that the 'Ponniyin Selvan' can be made into a film of three parts, only with a budget of 'minimum 300 crores'. And I know better than you that, we can't do it in this situation.

That is why I made a PROJECT ROUTE aiming at the current target.

Before making Ponniyin Selvan, we are planning to make a Mass Hero Movie, with a budget of 30 crores. Before that we are planning to make a Heroine oriented Movie, with a budget of 3 crores. Before that we are planning to make a New Face artiste’s Movie, with a budget of 1.5 crore. Before that we are planning to make a Low Budget Movie, along with Twin dramas based on Ponniyin Selvan. And planning to release both simultaneously.

As a beginning or base for all these projects, we want to shoot the low budget movie now. For that, we need your help and co-operation. The investors of this project will be paid 20% profit on investment and a book on update notes and details of every day actions of this production. Hope this will be very useful for everyone!

This project is planned not only to collect fund for this production, but to attract many new comers to the industry, mainly to the production field.

To join this project, no need to send money in advance. Tell what amount you are interested to invest and Send it only before shooting starts…

So, Welcome ARTISTES / WRITERS / DIRECTORS / PRODUCERS / TECHNICIANS / STUDENTS / FILM LOVERS…

Join as a Student Producer to Learn...    Accompany as a Co-Producer to Earn... 

Co-operate as a Patron to Encourage...

With love

Kamalabala B.Vijayan
