313 is a two minute micro-short inspired by one of many David Attenboroughs quotes, exploring the relevance and legacy of animals on our planet. Decades or centuries down the line when generations past and when and time rewrites itself, will our wild neighbors become victims of vague assumptions, a distant memory, or simply forgotten?
The PSA themed film follows three generations representing three categories of people and their experiences with a subject matter; having seen them in flesh and blood, through documented media and via pop-culture. The story telling structure is layered by color, character, composition, sound, motif and cinema references to decipher. The makers picked a species and imagined a world without them.
At a tender age of three filmmaker Ghaneshwaran found sanctuary in the pages of his father's natural history books and David Attenborough's television programs. His artistic expressions were painting and drawing during his adolescent days and later, leading a rock band for over a decade. In attempts to rekindle with his childhood passion, he found photography and film as a bridge between wild things and himself. The rest that followed are byproducts of his personal voice in writing, still and motion art. All of the mediums he explored have become an integral part of his creative and thoughts process to this day.
