"Krishna Aur Kans is produced on Flash and After Effects" - Ashish Kulkarni : Bollywood News

We established that all the locations as described in the film still exists in the Vraj region even today

It was extremely requisite to carryout extensive research for every parameter in the pre-production phase of the film. Right from character design, staging, color keys, foliage, animals, habitats, costumes, properties - virtually everything. To accomplish the final character design of Krishna as we see him in the film, we experimented by making about 50 character design renditions over one and a half years time. We attempted to recreate our cultural heritage visually and the time that must have existed five thousand years ago. The colors were chosen with care so that they are soothing for the eyes. Once the script was finalized the pre-production process started immediately, the extent of our research was such that we established that all the locations as described in the film still exists in the Vraj region even today. The storyboards were created immaculately to ensure a smooth production process. Vikram and his team acted out ever scene in the film; they ensured that the animators working on the film get the exact references for the character acting and expressions in the shots. Upon the final animatic made, the music was created with such incredible detailing, that it couldve seemed like it was the final background score. The music provided the animators a feel of the mood and the timing of every sequence.

Virtual depth of field is allotted to each one of the layers

The pipeline was devised as any high-end digital 2D production, to turn the film into stereoscopic 3D was decided much later once the production was over, this created an advantage from the fact that the film is releasing in both digital 2D and stereoscopic 3D formats. The team at Reliance MediaWorks did a splendid job with the 3D conversion process; the conversion of a 2D film into stereoscopic 3D has certainly augmented a viewing experience for the film. In this process every layer as seen in the frame is separated out, where-in virtual depth of field is allotted to each one of the layers, and further rendered under the correct parameters to bring out the Z-depth giving it a 3D viewing experience. Most people are astounded when they hear that Krishna Aur Kans is produced on Adobe Flash, After Effects & Photoshop. For many, it was an impossible phenomenon to believe that a theatrical feature film of international quality parameters can be made using these tools. Vikram and our team were confident to build an effective production pipeline and deliver the movie with these tools.
