Project Lucia – 72 hours test!
February 27, 2012 in Uncategorized
We have had a great start. In 2 days, Rs. 3lakh is collected and another 15lak is pledged and that should come in over the week. Thank you people for trusting me and having faith in what I am yet to make. All this funding is going under the name – Audience Films! From now on, we can officially say - Home Talkies Productions in association with Audience films presents LUCIA
As promised, now I am hunting for the talented victims 
Positions in all most all departments are open at the moment. I am right now looking for my core team. And I have a simple test for those who want to join.
Make 4-5 mins long Promo video about – Project Lucia. You can read all about it on the official page . You are free to be as creative as you want to be, use any medium to shoot, it could be live action or animation, but please use copyright free music and visuals only. The promo should have the quality to go viral and should make a viewer feel like being a part of Project Lucia, if your promo can achieve this then you are close to being in the team. And you have 72 hours to make this promo. (its not impossible, my first short film was done for a competition where the deadline was 48 hours, and the film went on to be in the best 25 films). This is the only way you can get into the core team of Lucia. Like we said, there is no favoritism or influence. If you have it in you, Prove it!
Sweat some blood out, be creative and innovative. Hope to meet you 72 hours from now. When you are done with the film, write to me.
so….how do we write to you??….
Hi Pawan,
I have been closely following your website for quite sometime and i really appreciate your crazy dream about this project.
I will be funding soon for your project and i am waiting for my month end salary as i saw ur request pretty late
Can you please elaborate on what you actually need in the promo for your project Lucia?
I will try to work on that. Is it something you are looking for a teaser for your movie Lucia?
Please provide me with some more info on the video which you are expecting?
Regards,
Narasimha
how n where we can send this 72 hours test of 4 to 5 min promo to you
Hi Pawan,
It is a really appreciable act from your end to see that you are making some innovative techniques in film industry. I saw that you have already collected 3 lacs and 15 lacs is on the way. Can you clear my doubt how you can make a movie with 18 Lacs? Even if you collect Rs. 50 lacs as max will the economics allow you to make a movie?
Hello,
We are very keen on developing a video for this test and after lot of thought, we even got the script ready. But we are currently in UK and we have daily work and we report to clients. We have lot of limitations in shooting during weekdays due to the support work we do.
( I hope you understand and I wish you had posted this on a friday. We would have been able to shoot easily over the weekend with availability of friends etc.
However for our passion in creating this short film, we will be doing it over the weekend and sending it across to you. We know that will eliminate us from the core team as we did not meet deadlines, but I guess we have no choice
Pawan i have sent you a promo…Pls have a look at it and all the best for all ur initiatives..:)
ALl the best for your initiative Pawan…:)
Hi Sir,
This is Roy from the Band Swarg!!! Today we got a call from Purna Sir and I heard the tune which is uploaded here. I am very much sure that I can do justice to the songs If given a chance. We have a group of musicians with us and though I am a bengali I love kannada music and fluent in speaking the language. Looking for an oppurtunity.
Thanks a lot,

Hi Pavan,
You are doing a great job!! One has to work in a way he dreamed of. Very few people can follow their passion.
One thing i need to say here is that, I have not seen any creative films in Kannada industry. People are making the movies but quality of the movie is failing again and again. Lifu Istene was one of favorite movie. I liked the concept in that movie..
I hope Lucia will really hit the audience. No chaos, no creation!!
All The Best
Hi Pawan,
I am seeing all these very very late. But I saw couple of LUCIA promos on line and on AIR. But my question is why no updates on whether you were successfully could collect $100000 or not . Why is this website not uptodate. I think its your responsbility to update the details in here. So that people can support and trust you for your future dreams work!! else you will one among gimmicks !!!
Hi I came to know about lucia when tinbed Kami song hit the YouTube. I am late. But, Can I support your Lucia project now?
