Are you living in a new city or just shifted to a new place, don’t know anyone but still wants to connect with the local community. No worries you can contact a neighbour without sharing your number or location and ask you queries regarding your neighbourhood.   Its an app developed by Google, “Neighbourly” where you can ask any questions and you will get answers by your real neighbours. Just download the app from the play store and login with Gmail account. It will ask your location to verify your location that you are actually living at that place. It will add that as a neighbourhood. Now you will start seeing questions of others regarding common problems like does anyone knows an electrician, where is the nearby gym, where to visit for Chinese cuisine, etc.   You will see on the top right corner a button “Post”, click it and you will see different options. By default you can ask a question otherwise at the bottom you have other options like share local updates like you have some

You must have known that you can control the smartphone from your laptop like sending text messages, reply Whatsapp, look for photos, etc but if I rephrase it and say that you can control your laptop from your smartphone from anywhere in the world and it is free also. (P.S: Just make sure your PC/Laptop is turned on and connected to the internet which is the same case in controlling smartphone from your PC/laptop) So let's know how to control your laptop from your smartphone. There are many third-party apps also which provide this service but I will tell you about a service which is of Google. Go to the website on your PC/Laptop “www.remotedesktop.google.com”, (make sure to open it in a chrome browser) use the cursor to go a little down on the page and click “Get Started”. The website will show a pop-up down right corner stating to Install the software, you drag the cursor on the right and go at the bottom of the webpage, you will see an icon, on a line an arrow facing downwards

Google is the king of smartphones with Android but it also makes some apps which are very productive and easy to use. The 5 apps which I am going to mention are easily available on the Google Play Store and your Android version should be 6.0 or above. You must have heard about Camscanner app which is used to scan photos and documents but due to some malware, it was removed temporarily. There is one more app which is better and more reliable then Camscanner, it is “PhotoScan”, and it is made by Google and has an easy to use interface to scan photos and documents. It has a unique feature of anti-glare which helps to eliminate glare on documents/photos. The quality of the scan is very impressive. Next app is for people who like to edit their photos and make them Instagram worthy.   No, not the famous Photoshop, it is of Adobe but Google made an app which is also popular, “Snapseed”. It is powerful as Photoshop and you get a lot of options to edit whether its hue, saturation, brightness

You must be hearing that Airtel is enabling VoWiFi for Airtel Telecom subscribers with Airtel Broadband subscribers in select circles but what does this mean, what benefits we will get with this. Well let me start from the top, this is a similar technology like VoLTE, VoLTE works on VoIP it means Voice over Internet Protocol, that means your phone calls voice is transmitted thru the internet to the receiver. Previously you must have heard Edge, 2G, 3G, they were analogue methods to make phone calls but because of Jio coming with only 4G VoLTE technology, we cannot make phone calls on Jio on analogue. After Jio VoLTE, Airtel, Vodafone and Idea also came with VoLTE, means Voice over LTE (Internet). VoWiFi is Voice over WiFi (Internet) the major difference to note that you had to depend on cell towers to have uninterrupted phone calls on VoLTE but with VoWiFi you will be able to make calls with a full network of your WiFi. That means if you are not getting proper cellular reception at

After reading the headline, a question may arise in your mind, what is continuity? Continuity   It means maintaining the subject and objects in the same manner when we change the shot while making a film. Let's say in the film a child is eating a sandwich but when we change the shot, the sandwich is now half-eaten already. This makes a jerk in the film and it breaks the connection, the fake reality with the audience. Its a less conspicuous job though, because if done perfectly, no one will ever notice. What can be the Continuity errors? Continuity errors are subtle, such as: Changes in the level of drink in a character's glass. Length of a cigarette. More noticeable, such as sudden drastic changes in the appearance of a character. Such errors in continuity can ruin the illusion of realism and affect the suspension of disbelief. There are 4 types of errors: Visual errors- If something in the film visually changes when the shot is chang

To become a filmmaker what all things you need ??? Camera Story Script Actors But the most important thing remains the way you tell a story, Storytelling. Storytelling is a unique talent that everyone has and they use it differently. No one can copy your way of telling a story, they can copy your idea but not the way you tell the story to the audience. Because what matters is how impactful your story will be and how the audience perceives it. Now what about the camera? You would think that you need a DSLR, high range expensive camera to shoot a video. But actually, you have that camera in your pocket. Mobile, the Smartphone. Phones are getting smarter, so why not we too get smart and utilize what all we have. You don’t need professional equipment, you just need a story and your way to tell it to the audience. Ok, the story and   the script are ready and the shooting is also done. How to edit now?  I should have the knowledge about professional editi

After reading my 1st blog, my friend`s told me to write more. I never thought of that I can write good thoughts out of my mind. Everyone said it was too innocent and direct from your heart. These days I am thinking to write something but what to write, I am not been able to concentrate on a specific topic or subject. The only thing that comes to my mind is ‘How to get “internship” in my field of interest’.  First time I saw a family pressure but its positive pressure. They also want their child to get an internship in a good company and ultimately it went well. I got an Internship in a large company in South East Asia, Perfect relations, a public relations firm. There I worked for the big giants of the world like Coca-Cola, Google, Dominos, Dunkin Donuts…etc and it feels so proud when I say I was there with the “Team Coke” for the book launch of Limca Book of Records`13, Special Cinema Edition to mark the 100 years of the Indian Cinema. It was all fun and gained a lot of experience
