The school proudly applauds the efforts by the budding students of the Film Making Team which is growing commendably under the mentorship of the Creative Advisor of the School -Ms. Preeti Bhatt whose professional expertise in the fields of writing, directing and acting in theater has tremendously helped the team……..and hence this AWARD!!!   

Kevin Shah, ( Std VII  Naranpura Branch ) the 12 year old editor of “The Snob” mentioned that during the process of editing, he realized that editing was a lot more than just cutting and pasting and it played a great role in making of a good film.

His father mentioned that his recent discovery about his editing skills has now made him introspect about his future career plans. 

One of the teachers who acted in the film expressed her happiness saying, “It was a wonderful feeling looking at the young production team who so very meticulously arranged for all the things needed for the shooting. They projected themselves as young organizers and event managers.” 

Father of Mann Raval, ( Std IX Naranpura Branch )  the camera person of the film said , “ I am really indebted to the  school management for introducing such  innovative grooming lessons in the school and giving exposure to my child’s hidden talents.

After two consecutive wins, St. Kabir School is all set for a hat trick next year!

We wish the Film Making Club all the very best for their up- coming ventures!
