I-Day special: 3,000 videos forming Tricolour showcase India's diversity

As a nation with a rich culture and varied heritage celebrates its 65th Independence Day today, a Thiruvananthapuram-based IT company has come out with a unique concept to reflect the multiple facets of Incredible India. Engineers at Invis Multimedia have created the Tricolour out of 3,000 video clippings that showcase the India that exists in different parts of the country.

“All 3,000 videos which have been used to form the national flag are from various parts of India. Places of cultural heritage and tourist importance which were recorded as part of our Indiavideo website have been used to create the Tricolour,” MR Hari, managing director at Invis Multimedia, told DNA. “It also includes video clippings of traditional art forms from across the country. Our Tricolour will help the viewer get a real feel and taste of India.”

Invis Multimedia has been the official partner of Kerala tourism’s website for the past decade and has won several elite awards.

The Celestial Symphony, a DVD series produced by the company which features all-time great Indian classical danseuses, was globally appreciated by writers on tourism as well as dance critics.

“We hope to make some business with the over 6,000 videos from the country’s nook and corner which we have posted on the Indiavideo website,” said Hari.
