Architectural Workshop

After long research & discussion with industry experts, Vijigishu has curated a completely new & unique online workshop for students of architecture, interior & design students.

1. Art of Visual Story Telling:


Storytelling is a very powerful tool; it is through stories that we share our passion, fear, sorrow, hardship & Joy. Stories are universal methods that convey meaning and purpose, which helps us understand each other in a better manner and find commonality amongst others.
This workshop on visual storytelling will enhance the creative thought process of the students. They will learn the beauty and purpose of effective storytelling through brilliant examples from the field of art, photography, cinema, advertising, and design.
The workshop would also give them an overview of the various career options in the field of art and media, once they graduate from high school.
I truly believe that a community, a society, a nation is as strong and healthy as the stories that have been passed over the past and present generations.

2. Designing Spaces in Cinema:


The film is a language of visual storytelling, and so the visuals captured by the camera matter immensely.
The locations, sets, costumes, lights, etc all work together to create a new world on the screen and this world is a crucial part of depicting the film's story.
It’s important to understand the visual grammar of cinema, its shared system of terms, symbols, and syntax used to communicate thoughts, feelings, and experiences.
The production designer's job starts during pre-production alongside the director and producer of the project: they take the writer's work, the director's vision, and the producers’ plan and synthesize them all into a compelling visual story.
This workshop will give students an understanding of the process and language of film making and designing of spaces according to the film language, which together in sync weave a beautiful film.

3. Architectural & Interior Photography workshop:


"It is an illusion that photos are made with the camera, they are made with the eye, heart, and head." - Henari Cartier-Bresson
95 million photographs are shared on Instagram every day, 100 million people use the Instagram " stories" feature daily. Photography is definitely one of the most loved hobbies and a great paying profession, with interest being an attractive visual medium.
This workshop will expose students to the nuisances of shooting Architecture and interior photography with the right blend of techniques and creativity.
It's a lucrative career option too since most of the lifestyle magazines carry a feature on the interior, home, and spaces. The students already have depth and detailed knowledge of the subject, learning photography will give them an alternative career option.

4. Behind Great Designs


“Have a design or die” - Mauro Porcini, Head designer of PepsiCo
As designers- industrial designers, product designers, innovation designers- they are trained to understand all the different worlds of brands and business, R&D and technology, and especially people.
Designers become really good at speaking the languages of all the different worlds, then connecting those worlds to the design tools, and have the ability to prototype and visualize ideas. When done well, design becomes a cultural interpreter and facilitator across the entire organization.
This workshop will open up the design world for the students with ideas behind the brilliant design, the thought process, and its execution design thinking is the magical balance between Business and Art.
