It was a great day 7th Aug, 2007 for all of us as Sathya's first video project titled "Sathya's Synthesis" was shot yesterday. The interesting fact is it was done at the "AM Studios" the state of the art studio owned by Sri A R Rahman. Sathya is indeed blessed to have got this oppurtunity and this is another great day to be remembered.
Originally the shoot was to have happened on the 4th followed by a live concert on the 5th Aug'07. However due to unforeseen circumstances it could not happen and when we were worrying on the status of the project, Mr Paul Jacob who has taken all efforts for the making of this project called up on the 6th afternoon and informed to be ready for the shoot on the 7th at the studios of AR Rahman. We were thrilled and so were the other artists involved in the project namely Donan Murray - Lead guitar, Balu - kanjeera & mrudhangam, Siva - drums, & guest artists Embar S Kannan - Silent violin & vocal and Ananthakrishnan - Hinsdustani vocal.
Mr Balaji was co-ordinating the camera units with Mr Anias and the audio was controlled by Mr Siva the engineer at the studio along with Mr Tony, his assistant. While the set up took a little time the recording started around 1245 pm and the entire list of songs were shot by 1030pm. It is indeed a miracle of sorts that this could happen as normally for this kind of a project it takes a minimum of 2 - 3days considering this to be visual project.
The project consists of a sloka redention by Sathya to begin with followed by Mallari. Two pieces of Sathya's own composition on ragam Keeravani & Thilang, Six Thirukkural phrases for which Sathya has composed tunes and performed in ragamalika format with vocals, one on Srothasavani by Embar S Kannan, classical numbers in Narayana - Suddha Dhanyasi, Niravathysukatha - Ravichandrika, Krishnanee Begane baro - Yamuna kalyani and kavadi sindu are the other numbers.
The recording was indeed a great success thanks to Mr Paul Jacob and team lead by Mr Hemanth administrative incharge who had put lots of efforts for the same. It will take a while for editing the visuals and should be ready for release by mid September. We look forward to perform a live concert before the release in front of large audience and request all your support for the same.
Happy to share few photos taken during this recording. It has been a great experience working on this project and it is certain the album will satisfy the interest of the viewers.
