Apeejay Stya University (ASU) student Vedant Chakraborty secured the second prize at the National Short Film Festival, 2023, organized by Bharati Vidyapeeth’s Institute of Computer Applications and Management (BVICAM), New Delhi on 2 December.
Vedant Chakraborty, a 7th-semester student pursuing Bachelor of Design in Animation and Multimedia, showcased his artistic prowess with his silent film, “Anonymous Flower.” Out of 52 initial submissions, only 9 were selected for screening, and Vedant’s film emerged as one of the three awarded at the festival. The film delicately portrays the value of human relationships beyond utility.
Expressing his gratitude, Vedant acknowledges the pivotal role Apeejay Stya University played in honing his visual storytelling skills.
“I am grateful to Apeejay Stya University for teaching me the art of visual storytelling. Without the continuous support of my teachers and the institute, I would have never achieved this recognition,” said Vedant.
