The seminar that I conducted for Mahindra College of Engineering, Salem, on 24th July 2009 in response to their invitation, was a resounding success. It helped the students to understand the nuances of animation techniques and technology. It also served to inspire them for a career in animation.

After interacting with the students in depth, I found a lot of creativity in them awaiting the right channels for expression. Given the proper guidance and training, this fresh group of talented individuals can be groomed for a successful career in animation that can attract many international and national industries.
I was born and parented in Chennai Santhome, a place celebrated world over as the Detroit of Asia. My father, an illustrious artist had designed many commendable Indian Postal Stamps and logos for companies of national repute like Nirma, Pilot Pen to name a few. Little did I know then, that his passion for art was infectious and I will be its immediate victim and inspire me to become a full-fledged Animator. His care and guidance fetched me many rewards in art competitions held in various Schools and Colleges.
Today my efforts have been profoundly honored at Mahindra Satyam Computers as I am bestowed with the responsibility of Creative Head and Heading the Graphic Asset Management team for e-Learning division.

Two films I made in the past two months for my portfolio to animation colleges (CALARTS!!)

KARMA deals with a hunter who has shot a bear.
(if you don’t know what’s going on, it’s not your fault, my storytelling is not that great…)

RUNNING BOY is just a pencil test that grew into a bigger project. Includes super cheesy accordion music! I like this one better.

(UPDATE: I got in to Calarts!!)

Avery Centre is a 1400-acre planned unit development in northeast Round Rock. It includes plans for a town center, which will be located near the intersection of FM 1460, or AW Grimes, and County Road 112.

The Avery family, whose ancestors have owned land in Round Rock for more than 100 years, hired Waterstone Development to manage and plan this large-scale project. The Averys previously worked with the CEO of Waterstone Development, Bob Wunsch, to develop Avery Ranch, an 1800 acre residential community in north Austin between Round Rock and Cedar Park.

The master plan for Avery Centre is a New Urban design featuring a mix of retail, residential and commercial development. The pedestrian-friendly design will cater to walkers and bikers–those attending universities and colleges such as Texas State University, Austin Community College and the Texas A&M Health Science Center.

Seton Medical Center Williamson also exists at Avery Centre today, with complementary development planned for the site. For example, a privately owned medical office building will be built just south of the hospital. A book store, coffee shop and sandwich shop is planned near the college campuses to serve students.

The development is expected to be fully built out by 2018.
