⭐⭐⭐⭐ (4/5 stars).A workaholic entrepreneur Aditya Parikh and his retired father Bipin Chandra Parikh begin to explore the meaning of life as they meet a traveller named Ketki, who takes them on a journey of surprises. Please go watch and support this film because it’s a gem. It carries a very resonant message about living life without inhibitions and the parent-child relationship will strike a chord with audiences across the globe. Overall, Chaal Jeevi Laiye is one of the finest films to evolve from Gujarati cinema. It seems more dragged out and the story doesn’t really progress much – but having said that, I didn’t get bored. In addition, the story seems to drag a little bit in the second-half. The movie makes a point about how a single father raises his child, which is quite an interesting area to explore this could’ve been developed a bit more. Undoubtedly, there are many great attributes to the film, but there are also a few improvements. One also cannot help but admire the cinematic shots.įor instance, Bipin and Aditya are seated on a rock stuck inside a hill and the rotating camera-work that occurs during this sequence is par excellence. The film encompasses Garhwali culture in a subtle and fabulous way. Vipul Mehta captures picturesque views and natural surroundings. Plus, it is advised that you keep tissues with you as you WILL need it! There are so many relevant and philosophical dialogues which compel us to enjoy life and forget all our sadness/miseries.Ī memorable and poignant line is: “Life teaches us ‘sa re ga ma’ (musical notes) and us humans live life as ‘Sare gam’ (all the sadness)”. I cannot help but admire the amazing writing. It is so refreshing to see that such lines are not condescending towards the LGBTQ+ community for the sake of ‘comedy’.Īs such, the humour itself is so natural and comes across organically. The speech is also quite progressive… One such humorous dialogue is about homosexuality where Ketki asks Aditya where he is “Aadmi Hoon, Aadmi Se Pyaar Karta Hoon?” There are tongue-in-cheek dialogues which in turn mock these stereotypes and it is quite satirical. It (the film) showcases that there is a lot more to Gujarati culture than just plain ‘dandiya’ and ‘garba’ per se. Given that this is the first Gujarati road-trip film, this is one venture which breaks all other cultural stereotypes. There are an Aditya and Bipin that resides in all of us and after watching the Breaks Stereotypes Regarding Gujarati Culture This can be said about Chaal Jeevi Laiye as the movie’s concept is one which all of us can resonate with, regardless of what language we speak. For example, Wrong Side Raju is one movie that united regional and mainstream styles together due to rich content and people like Anurag Kashyap coming on board. In fact, other films have already broken glass ceilings of being in the Gujarati language. However, the most brilliant aspect of Chaal Jeevi Laiye is that it is not solely restricted to that platform a regional movie. Despite it being a self-discovery story in the backdrop of a father-son relationship, it is one which strikes a chord with the audience. Moreover, the story itself is quite unique. Though there is a strong Hindi cinema feel to the film, which makes it very easier for the general Indian audience to enjoy and relate to it. As a Bollywood enthusiast, I feel the movie has a very strong Rajkumar Hirani feel to the film and the banter/dynamic between the parent and child reminds me of 102 Not Out/Piku and I mean this in a good way.

Getting organized and becoming an expert with the Image Browser built into Fundy Designer can make you more money. And the best part is – it works so much like Lightroom that you’ll be a pro within 5 minutes of reading this blog post. The strategy with culling from a design perspective is to choose which photographs are going to have the biggest impact. Often we will import our “design selects” into Fundy Designer, but from there we can do a bit more culling and tagging to really get focused on creating some amazing designs. For example, maybe use 5 stars for images that are great on the wall and the album and maybe 4 stars for album-only images. When you are designing an album, wall art, etc, you can access the image browser by double-clicking on any image or clicking on the icon in the bottom right of the main window.Īt the top right of the image browser, you’ll see the four main views: the film strip, the grid, the compare, and the design view. Just click on the icons to navigate through the different views. To rate an image or favorite it, you can click on an image and then click on the star or heart icon. You can also use the hotkeys (1-5 for the stars and f for favorite/heart). You can also select multiple images and do the same, just like you would in Lightroom. Also, remember that if you like to do your ratings in PhotoMechanic or Lightroom, your stars will carry over to Fundy Designer. My personal favorite is to use 5 stars for images that will go into the album, or also look great as wall art or a card design. Then use 4 stars to the remaining album selects. Fundy designer v7 crack download how to Fundy designer v7 crack download software Conversely, you can add an image without having to move the other images around manually, Fundy Designer resizes everything automatically. So, 5 stars for the wow scenes and 4 stars for the rest of the selects. You’ll also notice more options for tagging images. These icons are for storyboarding for the auto design. Now that your images are tagged, filtering is easy and powerful. For example, let’s say you want to just see images that are 4 or 5 stars and haven’t been used in your design yet. Simply click the box next to 4, 5, and unused. Now, the real power is using the patent-pending auto design on your selects.

Then I can move the opacity down in the opacity slider and I get a dark, moody background image. You’ll notice in this design, I’ve made the background black, using the background color control. Now that it’s the background image, you have a great deal of control. You can choose to remove the image or make it the background image. We are making it easier than ever to use an image as a background.Īny image in your design or in the image well, just right click on it. We also know that we have many users who love using background images.

To add a background, simply drag that background onto the page. Not only are the backgrounds beautiful, they are extremely easy to use. We’re happy to announce that in February 2015, we are adding 20 professional background options, and will be adding 20-40 more throughout the year as free upgrades to Fundy Designer.

TFC: "Duck, did you come up with these names?"ĭ: "I only wish, sir. Here is an example from Duck and the Diesel Engine, featuring Duck and the Fat Controller having a chat about the rather stuck-up big engines. Milne's in Winnie the Pooh, is something that not only children would have a laugh about. Even the humor in Awdry's stories, which I find similar to A. This is not to say that all of the TV stories are not good as there have been some very worthy adaptations from of the books and original stories in the TV series. For those who think the ten-minute episodes are better because they are longer - I'll have you know that the quality of the writing, illustrations, and the lessons of the "5-minute" stories in this collection are astronomically superior some of the episodes we see today. These are the stories that began the massive, beautiful, and Really Useful phenomenon that we now know as Thomas the Tank Engine & Friends. These are books written by a Christian priest who told the first three stories to his son who had measles. To be fair, the concept of scrapping is mentioned from time to time, but that is just how the stories were. It annoys me to see some of the reasons that people have given to dislike this book, some along the lines of "the stories are too dark". 1 sometimes not appearing for a full book. Though the book says "Thomas the Tank Engine" on it, these stories are not only about him, but also the rest of the Really Useful Engines on the Island of Sodor, with No. His son, Christopher, has written several more afterwards. To be clear, the title "The Complete Collection" refers to the fact that these are all of the Reverend Wilbert Awdry's Railway Series books. But I am proud to own this book containing the first twenty-six volumes of The Railway Series. For a while, I seem to have had a strange idea that the TV series was adapted into the books. I could go on and on about my backstory with Thomas, but I'm afraid that it would be far too much to write. This was the first book I got in relation to Thomas the Tank Engine. It is also one of the most important thing to me that I own. This book is the most important book that I have ever read in my entire life. Strange how as I read the stories I can see Denis reading them along side me. I remember he had a far more spectacular version of this book and I remember being allowed to carefully read it when I was a small boy when we visited them. So like I say when I read the various children books - I still have so much to learn from the classics what ever they are.īut why read this book - well for me it was another connection to my late uncle who to me lived for all things historical and natural history. One thing that did catch me by surprise was that there was such a large array of engines - now again I thought a lot of the engines were creations of the various TV and toy franchises trying to expand and increase their sales of the various characters but no - a very large number of the engines where originals from the various stories. There are a short afterwards which covers of the Rev Awdry along with the two main artists who illustrated (and brought) the island of Sodor and the various engines to life. So on to the book - this is a gloriously grand collection of all of the original stories along with the artwork that brought the various engines to life. I guess they have been retold and referred to so many times that they have filtered through in to my memory and stuck there. There have since been multiple, hugely popular, Thomas the Tank Engine TV series and films.This was a lot more fun than I thought it would be and what really surprised me was I knew (sort of) a lot of the stories. The first of the Railway Series books was published in 1945, and Awdry wrote 26 Railway books in total before his son, Christopher, took over the series. Christopher asked for more and more stories and Wilbert began writing them down. Later when he was grown up and his son Christopher became ill with measles, Wilbert told stories Thomas the Tank Engine and his friends to entertain him. He used to imagine conversations between them. He grew up close to the railway and was convinced that the steam engines all had different personalities. The Thomas the Tank engines stories were created by the Reverend Wilbert Awdry, who was born in Hampshire in 1911. Children aged 3 and up will love becoming aquainted with beloved characters such as Percy, James, Gordon, and Toby down on Sir Topham Hatt’s railway.įeaturing stories from Rev.
