Mastercrafter Award
“Shukriya” by Nilutpal Chakraborty.
“Good Idea but not quite novel. But making of the film is crisp and visual elements well utilised, with very good captures of outdoor and indoor as well as good application of light, on the whole. The editing is pretty good though the music is good only in patches. The acting is commendable. The direction deserves appreciation in holding the interest till the end. Overall a good effort.“-JURY
Budding Weaver Award
“Echoes of Presence” by Soumen Roy.
“The idea is very good and bold as it deals with abstract issues, though somewhat obscure. The making leaves a lot to be improved as the animation is repetitive and not quite interesting. There is a lot of room for expanding the film narrative with a host of variations. The maker is encouraged to try his/ her hand for more subtle communication with the viewers.”– JURY.
