Photography @ Auroville-by Abhijith S Dev

May 6th, 2010

It has always been a wonderful experience to shoot movement and more over to showcase motion in a single frame. For me it was so exciting to capture various compositions and the lighting adding up to the frame. The utilization of space and mixture of dance gestures were just brilliant. Their immense dedication and passion made me magnetized; their movements were so rapid that it was a challenge for me to capture it. I struggled a lot to get a composition in which Rohan and Vishwa are flying literally, and somehow was successful in doing it.

For me, i relate to shapes, forms and patterns more than scenic beauty in a single frame. While shooting, I always saw these dance movements as patterns and moving forms, and to visualize the entire aura through the viewfinder was just truly amazing.

I have always enjoyed tagging along with the team, and I must say I really enjoyed being around with them in Auroville. Altogether, it was an unforgettable experience traveling with the team of Nritarutya to Auroville.

Diet-Never thought it would be so vital!

October 26th, 2009

Following the tips that we shared in our older post- “Fitness for all”, we are here with many more,
this time bringing you the goodness of a wholesome diet.

Any Dancer’s diet like his/ her lifestyle is very very different.
Any individuals’ diet requirement is based on performance and output.
This makes a different place for a Dancers requirement.

For energetic and very zestful performance, where a dancer displays his best,
he/ she needs to be adequately fueled. Dancers need to ingest sufficient energy
to meet rigors of hard training. While it is important for a performer to be cautious of
the weight of his body, a low caloric intake can cause an under-ingestion and compromise
energy availability.

A dancer would need a diet plan which will meet the energy demands of dance. Thus
obtaining a calorie intake that should suffice is not only a real task but also
of high importance.

To estimate calorie intake required for a performance while undergoing heavy training is:
45-50 calories/ kg of body weight for females and
50-55 calories/ kg of body weight for males.

After the calculations of calorie intake are made, one needs to estimate the
needed amount of Carbohydrates, Fat, Proteins, Vitamins, Minerals and Fluids.

Continuing with the series of this, wait up guys for our next blog, where we get into the details of food,
nutrition and proper balanced diet for a dancer.
We’ll get comprehensive on one of the considerably neglected aspects of a dancer’s lifestyle!
Take care and stay healthy until then :)

Nritarutya Design studio

September 1st, 2009

A qualified Graphic/Digital designer for more than a dozen years, my designs have even survived the eyes of my perfectionist dance colleagues :) That’s my masters degree……. to read and sense a dance company’s design motivation. And here you have some of my framed imagination

Being a dancer myself, with experience exceeding my design years, I kinda know how well balanced a dancers bank account is (as we are trained to go off balance while dancing ) so the rates could be negotiable.

The Idea is to digitize your creativity….

• Logo
• Brochures
• Calendars
• Posters
