Here are glimpses from the event and the TASI team’s trip to Pune and back.

TASI goes to Comic Con India

Team TASI went to Delhi for the recent 1st Indian Comic Convention on 19th and 20th Feb. We had a stall that saw a continuous stream of visitors, some friends, some members, lots of fans and many new faces. The entire TASI team had a great time interacting with each and every one of you who came by and spoke to us. We also welcome the new members who signed up on the spot.

We (Tony, Puneet, Quadri, Uttam and Akshata) had a blast at the ComicCon on both days while Vaibhav joined us on Day 2.

We held 2 Pixillation workshops, one on 19th evening and the other on the 20th, getting people from the volunteers to participate. The organisers inform us that these were the most popular workshops (Yay to Animation!).

Check out the videos below – some from the workshops and some that we randomly shot throughout the ComicCon. Enjoy!
