5) Spin a Yarn- Storytelling Event 4- As the name suggests, participants were required to weave a story starting from a ‘lead-in’ line and incorporate themes of projected images. This was to be done turn-by-turn wherein each member of the team would continue to narrate from the point where the other member left it. The event was judged by Mr. Mayuresh Belsare.
6) Showreel – Editing Event- The participants had to choose images from various films and juxtapose it with soundtrack from other films and weave a narrative out of it.
