The Bloody Interview

Our new motto is now going to be , ‘It’s been a while’, (also, the OST for The Glitch.)

Yes, we chose Staind because Hard Rock still plays Sweet Child of Mine.

Firstly, here’s wishing everyone a Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, Happy bloody Lohri Pongal, Republic Day…Valentine’s for one and all those other one’s that we fast for.

Second of all, there’s A LOT that has been happening. And since, this is my first day of updating this blog, I’m going to come to the “A LOT” part very soon.

And just because I have been given access to the main blog, I’m going to go ahead and write about my interview and not talk about myself.

Cause that’s polite.

This is our address by the way, : Shop 1, Benzer Apartments, Near Air India Colony, Yari Road, Versova, Andheri West.

Shop? Good question. Formal wear usually sums up as jeans with a top that covers most of me, so that’s what I wore.

Now when you find the “shop” (now office) you see what appears to be exactly what you thought of a shop in your head. Glass door. White tiles.

But what you didn’t expect was a Pulp Fiction poster on the wall. (Classy shop eh). Also, the knob of the glass door is inside. So, it’s more like people trapped in a shop. That fucks with you for a while, but you get over it in a while.

Right after that, you walk in to find out that, it’s actually a big ass shop. Don’t try to figure out which comic book has been shredded to make the table mat. Just have fun with the ‘Swoosh’ and ‘Swump’.

And here’s the best part:

Rohit:  Hey, so we are kinda making this webisode which involves like you know….a live-in relationship kind of a thing…it’s called Bleep, Bleepity & Bleepers. Bleep is a rock, Bleepity is a stoner & Bleeper is a complete chick. So, let’s get a write up on that then?

By this time I’m only saying this in my head: HE SAID STONER??!!

So then there’s just no way out of this cause if you write well they’ll know you smoke up and they’ll know you’re retarded.

And after that.

Mehak: Have you seen Coupling yea? So it has to be a bit of a tease also, coz BLEEPER is this really bubbly chick, who keeps seducing her boy friend..

And to write this well you’d have to be a stoner & have sex.

All in all, this post is getting too big and let’s just say, I really liked them.

[Dad: You got into a place that is a synonym for 'A Defect?'. How will you're resume look like?]

Post is too long now.

Mehak: Hey! First day yeah? Do you smoke? Do you drink beer?

Okay stop it now..stop!

I dressed up as a cab today and yes, I love beer.

… And a week later!

The last time this blog was updated, Beer was cheap in Mumbai, Petrol – not so much… But like we promised to keep this blog updated before, we do the same this time as well (hoping you will get bored of reading it frequently and ultimately ask us to stop).

So, we have moved to our very new hide-out from where we create the entire ruckus now.  We still call it the Glitchplex. (Varun surprisingly has become the Mayor of this place, since “Lil Twit’s” phone gave up on logging onto Foursquare). Anywho, talk about growing bigger (not only our bellies), we have welcomed a lot of new people to our party viz. Priyanka, Rexan, Sourya, Zain, Sunny, Jay, Sartaj, Binoodha and Sahil and it has only grown wilder..

About the latest happenings in our lives, the pani-puri wala next to the office is thankful to us for always giving him a reason to smile by listening to our internal banter with the BLONDE of The Glitch. And so are we thankful to him for his awesome ice-cold pani-puris.

Apart from that, works going pretty well with people excelling in their own fields namely Counter-Strike, FIFA, drinking-and-dancing and snatching head-phones.

Also, people have stopped barging in to the office mistaking it for a cyber cafe.

Work on the other hand is becoming a little hectic with London Fakir, UTV Fitness series, Rockstar’s social media promotion, an interactive online game for the movie “Players” and a super exciting futuristic tech-show for Nickelodeon.

That’s a lot of time been wasted on this blog now. Have more important things to do in life, time for the final episode of “Game of Thrones”.

Catch you all with more of what we do here.

Whistle-Blower at The Glitch

You look astonished…we wonder why.

Ok we just erased what we wrote.

and now we’re in no mood to rewrite it.

So well sorry for not being regular. By which we mean non existent.

We must tell you there’s quite a bit of stuff to talk about, but let’s just start by saying we have grown bigger… and this time it’s not just the beer to blame.

Gavin, Mehak, Mikhail, Vibhor, Shobhita have now joined ranks with the other slaves. On the work front, it’s been very noisy, with a Big Ass channel V show in production, Bollytics. A super hot office workouts with Nadia, itching to go on air, a stereoscopic 3D project, which almost blew our systems out… there are a lot more …. but we shall talk about them slowly if we don’t slack this time.

From slacking, we remember we recently got a beating from one of the elderly people here. He went running behind us with a production umbrella asking us to get the blog updated or he will fire us. He would have, had it not been for the production guy who came in between and asked him to put the umbrella down immediately or he would have to suffer financial implications.

Thank god for pure hearted, kind and generous production teams.

But we shall not trouble the weak hearted elderly anymore and update the blog more frequently….

Amen to that. And come back before the end of this week for more….

cheers

The new Bird

Aye

How goes it?

The last time we updated about the happenings in our super busy entertaining lives, we were really drunk. But that’s alright, a lot of you expected us to be.

We have finally rated Leonard Cohen’s version of Hallelujah as the goose bump song of the year (whichever year it was released in). We have also decided to play it full blast at the “house” warming party of the new Glitchplex. (Why do they call it that.The only effects of a house warming party are hangover and a big mess to clean.) Yes we’re moving, and very soon. There will be a social media campaign conducted to invite those who we wish to invite. Which is just a fancier way of saying we’ll put it up on Facebook. And for the rest, you guys can always crash the party. That’s what we usually do when someone “forgets” to invite us.

Also, Hallelujah to our newest and puniest slave, Mr. Bhadane. He’s not as old as he sounds, but he is that slow in his motor movements. His real name is Manu or Maheshwar or something like that. Essentially it dates back to the time when fossils used to hop around, and people wore much lesser clothes.

But alas! The times have changed now. Though people still wear really less clothes, but we shall keep up with the times and not be mean to Manu. Welcome to The Glitch :)

A lot of exciting work is also shaping up. You know one thing that we find strange is that in every post, we tell you more on this the next time. A rather bad habit which we’ve got from the Television. But this time we won’t do it. We’d just tell you that we can’t tell you a lot right now. And following the film philosophy, the sequel shall be released when we feel like releasing it. Though we can show you a promo.

So imagine a big canvas, and paint your face on it. And imagine you were the most eligible single in the entire country. Is that something you might be interested in?

Hallelujah

28 Years later… 28 Hours back

lets get done with the essentials first! Grand Old Daddy of The Glitch …. Birthday Wishes to you. We know you had a great time. Cuz we were there. Cheers

Now onto the more interesting stuff… We rediscovered the best hangover song this afternoonish morning. Say hello to Mr. Mark Knopfler. He’s jamming to heavy fuel on our Itunes…..

What is strange though is why do we remember the most random details the morning after the night we drink a little lesser than the usual 300 pitchers per person. Yes, we live in our make believe Sparta…It’s called Barta. Okay, we admit that one was bad, but what else do u expect after a night that started with Carlsberg and ended with a weird concoction of Old Monk and Red Wine. YUCK!

The guy who came up with that was politely asked to leave soon after by a very close friend and a former Tamil Movie Super Star. <And you thought we don’t have Entourage….>

We got all six seasons alright!

We also remember people trying to shoot Tampons from the coolest gun on the planet. One of them hit us in the eye and we decided to take revenge by shouting “you BITCH. No respect for Mankind eh!”

Also there were rumors last night that Nicholas Cage has finally revealed the password he used in swordfish to hack into Itunes. We distinctly remember this was that time of the evening when the party split into groups on basis of their choice in music and there was an antakshari contest! Ya Rite… we’re not that lame.

But what did happen was Mr. Duggirala leaving everyone speechless with his lack of dancing skills. But we have to give it to him, he did get the hat right. It’s Pretty cool we must say.

Okay enough, we need to get back to finishing the remaining beer.

Hail Mark Knopfler

The Technical gl/tch

We have finally taken a big leap into the future of post production… Which really means that we think we’re smart enough to approach apple for software updates on FCP.

Here’s the list

1. A comb Filter. Yes literally a comb

2. A face replacement filter

3. A costume selection filter

Then someone had a brainwave that we should just ask Apple for a “Makeup dada” filter.

Don’t frown Mr. Jobs. You have no idea how many people will find it useful and if you can’t do it we’ll just have to forward the request to Adobe. !!huh!!

Cheers

Finally, a little more….

So Here’s more news from the Glitchplex!

We have finally put up scraps of paper on our softboards and our dustbins are no more empty. There’s hardly an hour when lights go out. Thanks to the extremely varied working hours all of us have very unwittingly chosen.

B4U has been declared a success by our very revered grand dads of The Glitch. We also had a few likes on our status updates on FB, the day B4U launched! We really hope those people liked our work too, and not just the status updates, which really were not even a quarter as creative as the work we did. Shame on us for the lame status updates.

Amongst the more important things, our whiteboard was finally cleaned today. Yes it got rid of all the “art”. Now we can finally  put down some serious words on it. Any Suggestions?

I was thinking “beer” but that feels better in our hands.

We have also made a resolution (For a millionth time) that we’re going to ramble more often and more random stuff on our blog. And we have rehired a bunch of pre maturely retired self proclaimed social media experts who have been hanging around The Glitchplex from the day of its “Inception” trying to look important. But we have complete faith in their limited capabilities (: … See they can make the smileys look different!

And yeah, The best part, it’s been raining shoots along with a lot of water in The Glitchplex. Will reveal more about that stuff once we get client approvals.

Amen to that

Cheers to us

Hectic times-Season 1

Shame on us. Its been a while since our last post and our only excuse is life’s been hectic and it’s only getting worse. But we’re not complaining.

Lots of really exciting things have been happening to the glitch. We made an extremely cool interactive video campaign for the launch of  Dadagiri season 3 on UTV Bindaas….we had guns, bomb blasts and terrorists. Great fun!!

Then there is the making of our full fledged studio in the confines of versova village….will post pictures as soon as it starts to take shape…

Then there are Prashant, Venky and Radhika who join the anatomy of glitch,…they like cold beer, waking up their bosses and entourage. So we hired them !!!

There’s so much more developing here at the glitch….websites, shows, interactive campaigns but all that will have to wait till our next post.

So till then….

adios

p.s: There are tons of video’s we need to post but till then this post was the need of the hour.

Once Upon A Shoot!

I want some spatial Butter Chicken

U Shoot...I shoot..Dhichkaaaooon

Hello There

“Listen to us! Television is not the truth. Television’s a goddamn amusement park. Television is a circus, a carnival, a traveling troupe of acrobats, storytellers, dancers, singers, jugglers, sideshow freaks, lion tamers and football players. We’re in the boredom-killing business. So if you want the truth, go to God. Go to your gurus. Go to yourselves, because that’s the only place you’re going to find any real truth. But, man, you’re never gonna get any truth from us. We’ll tell you anything you wanna hear and We lie like hell.
For starters, we wont say anything actually. Except hello there, Thanks for dropping in.
