If it hadn’t been for the crowd, he wouldn’t have known of his existence.
And so he says..
“The pacing feet and faces unknown, amidst the crowd I stand alone..
I dare the walk, I sing my song, with faith in my heart, I choose to Unbelong..”
A short film made by me for the BBC MyWorld Film Competition 2010. Made over 2 weekends, it was shot entirely in Mumbai using my humble yet efficient Sony digital camera.
It’s my first attempt at film-making and i had great fun doing it. A big THANK YOU !!!
to Dhairya, Mihir and Dev mama for all the help and suggestions, the film wouldn’t have been this beautiful without you guys. And as for you, thanks for dropping by, i’d love know what you feel about the film, do you choose to ? …Unbelong.

Hi Anand,
This is first time I’m seeing your camera work. And must say, I’m
highly impressed by the way you handled the camera and light so
effectively.
Your skills behind the lens are extraordinary and I see a bright
future for you in that side.
On the story part, I like the concept of Unbelong and considering
the theme of MyWorld, it makes sense. But I felt that you should have
spent a little more of the reel on your world by reducing their world.
As I felt after some time (although it’s just a 2 minute film) I was
just waiting for something to happen. I was for something that would
relate to Unbelong, and it came at the end. It was a nice end but I
think you could have made it little more clearer by adding some more
seconds to your world.
But overall, it was nice and quick !
Great Stuff !!
Loved your camera skills. Keep up the good work.
Wish you luck.
PAPPA, Huu Thari short film joaeyou. Saaru film che
BTW which Camera
hehehehe sorry for the mistakes in the language if any. Nice work
dude, Keep it up. I really like the concept. Just something i would
like to say. Things you have showned is very repetitive mostly and
thats the crowd. I know that it definitely is an important aspect of
you film but still there should have been some contrast. Right now the
film totally is depending on the words you have in your blog. Just try
to get those words by the visual elements in the film it self. Stil a
great step in dyde, I too will be coming in soon
is it ? I am getting a camera next week, opted for Canon IXUS 120 IS,
Which one is yours ? and how much did that cost ?
truely awesome your… i really liked the concept and the
way you have done editing…great job…really appreciated.

Hey Andy,
As i have already mentioned to you,Video!!!!awesome shoot man….Great camera angles,nice editing synchronizing with the music,Overall a nice cool video,describing the unbelongness.And also i noticed the switching of the videos after the end of every note of music…so quite cool editing.May be the only problem is that some people may not catch the concept instantly,they may get confused with ‘Unbelong’ and ‘Abandoned life’,infact i should say people like me
….U had to explain it to me when i got the same scenario in my mind..:),Anyways,super-cool shot,splendid camera works.All the best for u,keep the good work going,But always be careful….”Cameras are not allowed everywhere,without permission” hehehehe,..Nice work wooooooooo….
Hi Andy!
Ha ha ha…Finally m writing comment on Ur short film..
Congrats Dude!good work!
I liked the film, good camera work nice framing with good editing and our very own traditional sound of music.
‘Unbelong’ to me means the one who doesn’t belong to this world or may be a particular scenario,i feel the character should have belonged to each n every shot that u have taken,because this would have made a third person like me to understand that the character is there in the scene..he is there every where….but still theres somewhere hes own world, he has his own space in this world,but the second thought that comes in my mind is.. Is he alone? why?…may be the character likes to detach himself from this “Rude” world.
thats it..Andy sorry for writing too long..
Overall I must say good attempt..wel tried
Andy All the best to You..May u create many more such films…n one day a movie..
God Bless You
Tc.
i wonna say that u inspire me.
