AYV summit: Two selected from City
Two students of the City-based Christel House Learning Centre along with their teacher have been chosen to participate at the Adobe Youth Voices (AYV) Summit to be held in Stanford University.
Only eight students and four teachers have been chosen to represent India at this event.
Supriya and Shiva Sagar are the core members of the team that developed a short five-minute film-‘We Are by Your Side’ overseen by art teacher Dhanaraj Keezhara. The film stars a destitute boy who has nothing going for him but whose life becomes more meaningful when he joins Christel House.
The film was recently awarded the second prize at DAM 09 (Digital Arts Movement film festival) at the Symbiosis Institute of Mass Communication, Pune in February, 2009.
AYV is a signature philanthropy programme of Adobe Foundation implemented in India by America India Foundation with a vision to introduce young minds to the world of digital media.
Around 67 students and 33 educators from across the globe will converge in Palo Alto to exchange ideas and learn about new developments in digital media and production.
