BIG Animation announces the release of ‘Little Krishna’
Tue, 12 May 2009 23:03:00
‘Little Krishna’, the maiden high-end 3D animated TV
Series from BIG Animation, a Reliance Big Entertainment Group Company,
is all set to grace the small screen .The 13-episode series is a
co-creation between BIG Animation and The Indian Heritage Foundation
(promoted by ISKCON Bangalore). The show boasts of world class &
never-seen-before quality of animation on Indian TV screens.
Ashish S.K., CEO, BIG Animation, says, “Little Krishna is a fitting tribute to our legendary ‘prank-star’ that not only has a huge fan following within India, but is also extremely popular internationally. We are proud to associate with Nick and we could not have got a better platform for this series in India. The series represents a seamless blend of Global standards of technology with creative excellence. It has the true potential of becoming a turning point for Indian animation industry, in earning the patronage of International buyers.”
Each episode delivers 23 minutes of enthralling
entertainment, showcasing an amalgamation of both, the lighter humorous
antics of Krishna as well as his prowess as a warrior. Using the
traditional tales of Krishna’s childhood adventures as a foundation for
morally inspiring children’s entertainment, the tonality of the stories
is light-hearted, energetic and gripping.
Under the able
leadership of Prafull Gade (Associate Producer), who diligently married
economics with creativity and Ravi Mahapatro (Line Producer) who was
responsible for managing the day-to-day operations, the series was
scripted by Emmy Award ® winner Jeffrey Scott, directed by Vincent
Edwards and R. Balasubramaniam, and the music was given by J.V
Varaprasad.
Adds Nina Elavia Jaipuria, Sr. VP & GM – Nick India, “Nick’s biggest strength is its endearing characters that have created a lasting bond with kids. We have been looking for the right local animation show over the last 2 years and our search has now ended with Little Krishna. Through naughtiness and magical powers, the series has the potential to engage kids not only through world class animation, but also a compelling narrative. Kudos to BIG Animation, for finally taking the local Indian animation, to international standards. ”
Chanchalapathi Dasa, Vice Chairman, The India Heritage Foundation, says, “Krishna is one of the most enchanting and captivating characters out of the Indian heritage. Our involvement in the research corroborated the authenticity and selection of some of the most interesting stories. The objective was not to develop ‘yet another content’ around Krishna, but to serve the audience with a masterpiece which was historically correct and authentic. At the same time we also wanted the kids to enjoy the series. Interesting stories of Krishna in his younger days allow the kids to form an immediate association with our legendary character”
One of the leading and fastest growing animation studios in India, BIG Animation has established and tested pipelines for Design & Pre-production, 2D, 3D and Post-Production. With one of the finest IT backend setup, running on AMD Opteron 64 Bit Quad Core Processors and Foundry Big Iron RX laying the bedrock for its network, the studio boasts of infrastructure, technology and creativity that matches Global standards of deliveries. With the right blend of expertise in traditional as well as modern technical skills and exceptional artistic and managerial abilities, the studio is creating the next-generation animation, from ‘ideation-to-script’, and ‘script-to screen’, all under one roof.
The studio team has no doubt that ‘Little Krishna’ will emerge as a beacon which shall throw its light to embellish the Indian content in the Global market and shall leave an indelible impression in the minds of the Global audience. In the endeavors to establish Indian Animation’s footprint in the Global markets, the journey for BIG Animation, and stylized Indian animation, has just begun.

My Dear Caruhasa das;
Please accept my blessings. I have received your letter undated and
also seen the picture book. You should know it that Krsna is not a
plaything. These things should strictly not be done.* If you do this,
then Krsna will become a fairy tale. Please drop this matter.
I hope this meets you in good health.

http://www.chakra.org/discussions/BMJan02_03.html:
I went to Prabhupada one day in Los Angeles when he was having a meeting with Yadabara's wife about some art she was doing, and the GBC were in the room as well. I had done a film of some effects work to show his Grace on a film projector that I had. I was outside the door of his room when he called me in to set up the film for his viewing and all the people that were there. I was happy that he was finally going to talk to me face to face about the movie preaching work. He told me to sit right next to him because of the room filled to the brim with devotees, there were no more seats. I was so happy to sit next to my spiritual Master that I almost fainted. Prabhupada was so nice to me I good not hold back the tears and sat next to him on the corner of his seat. Then I put the projector in front and showed everyone the film on the walls in his LA room. The film was made up of my stop motion work on a Nrsinghadeva film and some clips from Harryhausen films. After the show he was happy with the presentation and asked me how they did it , and when I told him he said he thought that all Vedic story matter would look good in this media.Some of the devotees said to his Grace that Hollywood only wants to do stories with sex and violence. But Prabhupada said "yes there is all that in Krsna stories". He then told me if I could not convince Hollywood to do them then do the movies my self, and then when they are successful they will want to do them to. I never talked to Prabhupada again about the matter ,then he passed away shortly after that.
...
With Regards,
Caruhasa

Krsna as a plaything/cartoon and Krsna seriously depicted on film is not exactly the same thing.
Plus one side of the case is archived as a letter and the other is a memory(easily mistaken). The letter in question and the subject would appear to be applicable for all and not just this one devotee.
I think opinion on this(letter vs. memory) would be good.

Hare Krsna Pratyatosa das
I personally hold no stock in karmi's opinions on Krsna conscious standards.
That I do not like the method of presentation, is just my opinion and nothing more. Though July9th has come up with a good case for rejecting cartoonish figures.
As for Madhu Pandita? My OPINION is that material success does not directly indicate spiritual awareness. He lost me long time ago(98') with rejecting implementation and division of devotee activities according to guna and karma. He has failed to 'do' 50% of the instructions of Guru. No school I know of passes a person that only has satisfactory achieved a 50% completion of the curriculum. At least 60% is lowest I've ever heard of.
So I'm not very blinded by his merger shine. He is definitely a good business man, puts up a great show/presentation in his temple. But spiritual champion? I do not think so, not without implementing DVD from top to bottom in his organizations, NOW. A mere 14 yrs after I talk to him.

It depends on how it's done. Animation has come a long way since the 70s. Also, Srila
Prabhupada's advice to Caruhasa Prabhu does not necessarily apply to devotees who are actually competent movie-making
professionals. Here's another letter to Caruhasa from Srila Prabhupada:
8 August, 1974

My dear Caruhasa das,
Please accept my blessings. I beg to acknowledge receipt of your letter dated July 26th 1974 with the enclosed slides. I appreciate your interest in making the Krishna book film but it is not important for now. I therefore think that you could use your talent better if you work with Yadubara. In Hawaii I understand that he is making TV programs. So you can go and help with him. I do not care very much for these filmings because by presenting Krishna in this way it makes it something like fantasy. It is better to have people to read my Krishna books what I have written so that they can understand Krishna fully. I think you can understand this. I hope this meets you in good health.
Your ever well wisher,
A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami
ACBS/bs/ps
You may find the following 2 reviews of Caruhasa's latest efforts to be very revealing as to why Srila Prabhupada may have encouraged him to not act on his own, but instead to work with someone who is actually competent, such as Yadubara Prabhu.

What you have said is ok, still I can't help but focus on this part of the letter.....
I do not care very much for these filmings because by presenting Krishna in this way it makes it something like fantasy. It is better to have people to read my Krishna books what I have written so that they can understand Krishna fully.
It would seem to support the similar reasoning in the first letter poster by July9th.
Not sure if it is a matter of quality or content/media venue. Is this second letter also relating to animation?
Anyway, is this small or a big thing?

Hmmmmmmm. Maybe. I do not watch videos because I can't hear them, so I have no experience to critic them.
I will accept your OPINION on this for now, lol. Unless someone else see something I do not(like cartoonish animation being inappropriate? As apposed to live action film). Are these letters relating exclusively to cartoon characterizations or all filming, live action or not?

The point is, if we are going to do something for Krishna that the public will see, then it should be 1st class, such as the Little Krishna video series.
If Caruhasa Prabhu wants to give his side of the story, then he is welcome to join the discussion, but I don't know his email address, do you?

If your addressing me, I have no dieing need to contact this devotee and challenge him one way or another. It is just an exercise in critical thinking on my part and nothing more. This is a small thing, not earth shaking that I can determine.

So then, consider the time, place and circumstance. Is it just an amateurish rendition that is rejected or the venue of animation?
Second letter would seen to be twice rejected, but we need the context to be sure, hmmmm.
It is small according to siddhanta, but big in that Krsna would not like to be made to look ridiculous. A nursery rhime myth.

If the animation is true to versions of Krsna and his associates that
Srila Prabhupada has sanctioned in the past, and the story line does
not add modern politically correct views that water down the
philosophy, then I would be happy for it.
I will wait to see, but as with anything coming from even the best of
the esteemed but still-brainwashed "65 percenter" devotees from
Bangalore who don't act according to DVD, I am prepared to be
underwhelmed (65% chance) or pleasantly surprised (35% chance).

Well Prabhu, I gotta give it to em, Bangalore and Alachua seem to be
the cream of the crop, and Bangalore makes Alachua look like a
sandbox.
I really did like that set up we had at Alachua during Janmasthami.
Remember the circular "tour of Vrndavana temples" with all the family
Deities being worshipped, discussed, etc. That was nice. So how about
an F+ ?
When I hit 70 percent, I am going to start becoming very vocal. So
far I am more like a 69-er. An old timer with a little dusty lust
still coating my mind. Kama-krodha = Maha Moha. LOL.

| Dear Pratyatosa Prabhu PAMHO AGTSP Hare Krsna My reason for asking for the "point" in this discussion is that any such venture as the one cited below - or any by Caru Hasa et al - have been heavily invested in with both labor and money and any discussion by those not directly connected with the projects - would be viewed more than likely as nothing less than annoyance at this stage of their development. Would it not be best to just leave it all alone since what has been produced will find its way and be whatever it will be? Were you yourself or anyone in this forum to embark upon any such project - no doubt - you might invoke the suggestions or counsel of anyone you saw as helpful. But since it is probably not in the realm of anyone's capacity or inclination within this group to take up such a project - then why imagine that what this group or that group IS in fact doing - and paying for in labor and money - is anyone's concern but for the men and women so engaged? I offered the example of the archives and all the commotion stirred up by Bhakta Phillip, Rocan Das and all the banter generated by it all within this forum and elsewhere. At the end of the day - the archives devotees are simply moving forward at the same pace as they were - with the same determination to accomplish the task "at hand" with the resources, money, talent and labor available to them and not a single word expressed or written by anyone - anywhere - has had - nor could have - the slightest impact on their program. They are to this very day - doing exactly what they were doing prior to all the commotion and have no reason or capacity to do otherwise. The internet often provides us an illusion of connection to the real world that is quite convincing - but in the end - it is just a means to communicate and the means itself - is never the end nor capable of accessing the end. Even if you were to find Caru Hasa's email address - do you imagine that he has not deeply considered every word Srila Prabhupada told him on this subject matter that appears to have informed his deepest desires to serve Krsna and Prabhupada from day one? I am loath to imagine that he has done otherwise. Troubling oneself with this and similar issues appears - at least to myself - to simply generate distraction from the real opportunities to be and share KC all around us - whilst we concern ourselves with what OTHERS are or IN OUR OPINION ONLY - are not doing correctly. This was the reason for my saying what I did prabhu. If you recall - in the aftermath of all the back and forth generated IN THIS FORUM on the subject of the archives - some of its members actually and by incremental steps - actually descended into the strangest quarrels; all of which had literaly nothing to do with the archives etc. I can see this subject matter - "what Caru Hasa should be doing" devolving quickly in the same way.

Yes, the tour was a very nice thing, but it still sticks in my craw that they have left 50% undone. With the effect so profound on the generations, that have come. They are, as a whole, lost to the karmi world paradigm. Frantically, unsuccessfully, dovetailing what should have been give up!
Their deity worship(show) is as always first class! Best in the world!

I don't think that any of us are trying to convince Caruhasa Prabhu to do anything differently than he is already doing. The only reason that his name came up is that there is a letter to him from Srila Prabhupada which makes animated videos such as the Little Krishna videos seem somewhat controversial.

beginning. Pratyatosa das was never, at any point, "not making
sense". You read all sorts of possible motives into his mentioning of
Caruhasa das. And when he expains that you had him wrong you tell him
that you are patient and he will catch up to you?
Sometimes your arrogance is unfathomable, depthless, and truly
unbecoming.
Your only valid and civilized original question asked "what is the
point" to which RCB replied "a mental exercise". I thought that was
good and had nothing to add.
I suppose in your 3 varna psuedo religion there is no room for the
lower classes to exercise their mind and have it dovetailed with
Bhakti yoga.
But in Srila Prabhupada's society, both the GBC AND the most qualified
local Ksatriya were both supposed to monitor activities to see that
they met the spiritual standards he set forth.
Those with something to hide (speculative deviancy) would rather not
have big brother looking in when using Srila Prabhupada's legacy to
their advantage.
Your naked attempt to chill our speech and cast doubt on our motives
is telling of your real posture. Those who have deviated since time
immemorial are beyond reproach and scrutiny, but those who are
exercising the analytical skills Srila Prabhupada wanted us to develop
for the sake of checks and balances are faux paux, "annoying", and a
waste of time.

I completely agree with Pragosh.
Same goes for the Alachua installation.
Whether you like it or not it is going ahead and I will be supervising it.
So whether you think the Alachua devotees and I are aparadhis or not makes no difference to us.
It's just your opinion. And you aren't doing anything but talking. At least we are doing something.

Haribol Prabhus,
all glories to Srila Prabhupada.
You are right to maintain Srila Prabhupadas standards. Actually that's
the reason I joined this group, although read-only by now :)
IMHO the Little Krishna episodes surely can be considered as first
class animation movie, as near to reality as technically possible
nowadays.
They have all the bells and whistles for maintaning suspense: fluent
animation, proper background music, love even for details.
Incommensureble with cartoons from the last century.
Obviously it meets the standard for getting on air and being sold: in
India, it has been a great success when aired on Nick TV, and
broadcasting rights have been sold elsewhere, too, e.g. Brazil, so it
will make its way around the rest of the world soon, I suppose.
Admittedly, the episodes don't follow the Krishna Book chapters word
for word and sometimes mix them a bit, probably some concession to
modern screenplay.
Having read the original Krishna Book before, I can't notice any real
watering down of the philosophy as far as I have watched the episodes
by now. Crucial points are even mentioned quite evident.
The most important thing for me is that children really love to watch
it and are introduced to Krishna this way. Interest for Krishna
awakens - what could be expected more?
Even if books seem to be boring for kids nowadays, which child doesn't
like to switch on TV or screen?
Decide for yourself - for this discussion, it might be useful to
actually watch some parts of Little Krishna.
You can take a look at the full episode "Deadly Donkey", aka
Denukasura, 22 minutes, online:
http://www.evergreenentertainment.tv/projects.php#movie30
(click "view clip" in the 7th line)
BTW, Madhudvisa Prabhu finally managed to offer the Little Krishna DVD
set in his store where they can be ordered easily now:
http://krishnastore.com/little-krishna-animated-tv-series-dvd-set-h-krishna-1520.html
For me, it's definitely a great new way of promoting Krishna into ones
heart.
Hare Krishna,
Michael

Welcome to the forum, Bhakta Michael Prabhu!
Good to hear that the Little Krishna series is finally available on DVDs at a reasonable price.
How many total minutes is the series?

It is very well done, also... "Little Krishna is an exciting new 3D
animation" .. So it is also very up to date to say the least.
I was staying in the Bangalore guest house in 2002. When the
construction of the studio was taking place. Unfortunately I was
staying in the floor below the studio construction site which was on
the top floor. The construction work was continual 24/7 and the
constant noise was a disturbance. However the memory of that
disturbance has been mitigated by seeing some of the the fruits which
are being produced from the now finished studio.

Very interesting. So the videos were produced right on the ISKCON Bangalore property! :-)
Was Madhu Pandit Prabhu personally supervising the construction?
How far is the guest house from the temple?

GKD. you misunderstand our aim. We have tried to show you that the
Acarya of the asrama gave standards which are being broken by yourself
and those who have taken his asrama and temple and lead it according
to something different than what he authorized. Tried to bring you
off a shallow artificial neophyte level and give you a glimpse into
the consequences of your actions. We are talking ABC's here.
Bg 9.11 : PURPORT
"so any neophyte devotee who simply gives his attention to the arca-
mūrti, the form of the Supreme Lord in the temple, and DOES NOT
RESPECT other living entities is USELESSLY WORSHIPPING THE FORM OF THE
LORD IN THE TEMPLE. There are three kinds of devotees of the Lord, and
the neophyte is in the lowest stage. The neophyte devotee gives more
attention to the Deity in the temple than to other devotees, so Jīva
Gosvāmī warns that this sort of mentality should be corrected."
****** ******* *******
Respecting others means admitting your mistakes, when you have been
misleading whether intentionally or not. It means following orders of
your Guru. It means not changing your Guru's words. If you can't do
that, your worship is useless. Not according to my opinion either.
By the fact of your actions and Srila Prabhupada's opinion on them.
You have proved yourself all too willing to presume and claim that I
am doing "nothing but talking" and that you are "at least doing
something" implying superiority to my daily activities that you don't
have the first clue as to the nature of. Arrogant presumption. Yes
you are doing something. Being disrespectful. Presumption and
derision of another living entity. I ain't much, but at least I am a
living entity. You failed again.
You are about to go before Srila Prabhupada's murti and make a
blunder. I am not so naive that I think you all will stop. I just
thought I would warn you just for your own sake, to be on the record.
And if you don't admit to making a mistake about Ganesa worship, I
will follow through on my plan as mentioned in my last post on that
thread.
So go ahead and keep doing what you were doing. Its gonna hurt you
alot more than it will hurt me. Get a grip.

Everything I have quoted is from Srila Prabhupada's books.
If you want to call that a mistake then go right ahead.

Pratyatosa: Very interesting. So the videos were produced right on the
ISKCON Bangalore property!
answer: I don't know but they were planning this sort of production in
2002.
Pratyatosa: Was Madhu Pandit Prabhu personally supervising the
construction?
answer: I don't know what his personal involvement was in the
construction of the studio but the guest house is in the temple
compound, very close. As far as I know he monitors all activities in
the temple.

Your misquotes do not count as a representation of Guru on the subject because you did not look deeper than the surface.
It is my opinion that you and NNV occupy the same self serving Hell. After many days of tring to get a cohesive answer from you, I must say you have had more than a slight chance to redeem yourself.
Never trust the current status quo, when the modes that conduct this planet changes, it will be time for a higher mode of nature to take over. Ignorance will be dealt with.

After I downloaded all 13 of them, I used FFSJ-Lite to join them into one big (1.16GB) .avi file. I tried praying it with VLC Media Player and BS.Player. Both worked perfectly. The resolution is 720x576.
It's obviously not all 3 DVDs because it is only 94 minutes long. It says that the executive producers are Madhu Pandit Dasa and Rajesh Sawhney.
Just download them one at a time in the background. It may take a day or two or three, but eventually you'll get them all.

That Krsna is there make all the difference. That much I like and applaud those devotees results

Avatar was able to spend many millions of dollars on technical effects;
comparing them on that basis;
the KRSNA film gets 'better' results for each dollar spent.
Anything in 'this' material world, maya, is a reflection of the spiritual world.
The reason Avatar is the most successful film in history,
because it is a reflection of blue KRSNA

The following is an interesting quote which echoes Srila Prabhupada's
concerns which he expressed in his letter, posted previously.
That being that people may take Krishna as being a mythological
figure.
Personally I thought it was well made but will Krishna now become like
Donald Duck, Mickey Mouse, Popeye, Superman etc?
"In Iran, in August of '76, Jnanagamya was keen on making a
commercial, full-scale movie, with a budget of millions of dollars, to
popularize the movement. His idea was to show a scenario that included
the devotees, so that people could see how devotees lived and
appreciate the devotees' lifestyle. Prabhupada wasn't very keen about
it. Jnanagamya brought up five or six different angles, to get a "Yes"
from Prabhupada, but Prabhupada would not endorse it at all.
Prabhupada dismissed the idea. Prabhupada said, "For the kind of money
that you would spend on such a film, how many books could you
distribute? I have personal experience in spending so much money and
getting practically no result. When I first went to New York, I put a
classified ad in the New York Times. One small ad, which ran for one
or two days, cost me so much money, and I had practically no money. I
got three responses from that ad, and none of them bought my books. It
was a waste."
Of course in India you can make movies about Krishna, and they've done
it often, but they tend to focus on Krishna's pastimes with the gopis.
When we were in Bhuvaneshwar, in late January and early February of
'77, two or three moviemakers came. They told Srila Prabhupada that
they were making a movie and that they wanted to popularize Krishna's
pastimes. They said, "Hare Krishna is becoming popular, and we want
everybody to know about Krishna. We want to show Krishna's Vrindavan
pastimes.
Since you are the guru of the Hare Krishna movement, we would like to
get your blessings for making this movie, and in the movie we'd also
like to offer you our humble thanks for popularizing Krishna's
pastimes." Prabhupada immediately told them, "No." Prabhupada said,
"Why do you immediately jump to Krishna's pastimes from the Tenth
Canto? Nobody will understand. They will take it as mythology when
Krishna kills the Trinavarta whirlwind demon or whatever other
pastimes." They said, "But, Swamiji, everybody in India is a Krishna
bhakta."
As it happens, the evening before, Prabhupada had had a conversation
with an educated Indian man who asked, "Who is Krishna? " Prabhupada
had been shocked and chastised that man, saying, "You are born in
India and you do not know who Krishna is?" Prabhupada mentioned this
conversation in his evening lecture also by saying, "Here we are in
Bharatabhumi, but now people are so degraded that they're asking, 'Who
is Krishna?'"
So when these film makers said, "Oh but, Swamiji, in India everybody's
a Krishna bhakta," Prabhupada said, "You say that they're Krishna
bhaktas, but last night a guest asked me, 'Who is Krishna?'" Then
Prabhupada said, "Why don't you first make a movie of the First Canto
and then go progressively through the Bhagavatam and do the Tenth
Canto at the end?" But, of course, they wanted the Tenth Canto,
Krishna with the gopis, and they were simply trying to capitalize on
Prabhupada's popularity by advertising, "Oh, this movie is approved by
Bhaktivedanta Swami." But they could not get an endorsement from Srila
Prabhupada. Prabhupada would not budge an inch even after they brought
up various arguments for about a half an hour. Prabhupada said, "If
you make one movie of the First Canto, then we'll see." "

India and you do not know who Krishna is?" Prabhupada mentioned this
conversation in his evening lecture also by saying, "Here we are in
Bharatabhumi, but now people are so degraded that they're asking, 'Who
is Krishna?'"
So when these film makers said, "Oh but, Swamiji, in India everybody's
a Krishna bhakta," Prabhupada said, "You say that they're Krishna
bhaktas, but last night a guest asked me, 'Who is Krishna?'" Then
Prabhupada said, "Why don't you first make a movie of the First Canto
and then go progressively through the Bhagavatam and do the Tenth
Canto at the end?" But, of course, they wanted the Tenth Canto,
Krishna with the gopis, and they were simply trying to capitalize on
Prabhupada's popularity by advertising, "Oh, this movie is approved by
Bhaktivedanta Swami." But they could not get an endorsement from Srila
Prabhupada. Prabhupada would not budge an inch even after they brought
up various arguments for about a half an hour. Prabhupada said, "If
you make one movie of the First Canto, then we'll see." "

That means the the DVD that I downloaded is DVD #3, which makes sense, because they are both 94 minutes long.
I downloading another one right now. So far, I've downloaded 5 out of 12 files.
Bhakta Michael Prabhu, do you know how to rip the subtitles from DVDs to SRT files?
