I recently gave my masters graduation project presentation on designing for social impact and using photography as a research tool to help in the creation of social awareness solutions. I focused on the issue of child education in rural Bihar (India). The project was well received in the presentation and the overall consensus was good. The final outcome of the graduation project is the website Pick Me, Click Me, Educate Me! This project serves to provide a platform to people from different backgrounds (photographers, writers, educationists, social workers, donors etc) to collaborate. It allows to utilize the work done by one group (like photographers who go to these locations and shoot), for discussion with the others who are not able to. It therefore allows aims for promoting , discussing, writing about, and finally donating (again not the prime focus) for, the issue of child education in rural Bihar. Here is the promo video for the project And this is the presentation that I made in the class. Pick Me Click Me Educate Me View more presentations from Kshitiz Anand. Me along with a classmate (Vignesh Ramesh) participated in the Microsoft’s Imagine Cup student design competition in the photography section. We made it to the second round – the semi finals. The challenge here was to use one of the 8 UN’s Millenium Development Goals to create a story using 12 photographs only. We focused on the issue of attaining universal primary education and in particular told the photo story of educating the girl child in rural India. Here is the presentation.

I liked the participation of the audience in smiling together with me. Here is the presentation that I had used. Please note that most of my presentations are void of too much texts, and I speak more. I truly believe that I have the audience attention better that way. One audience member later summed up my talk in his blog post, “Kshitiz shared the lessons he learned from research in rural India. The slides were pictures of people from rural India and were the most interesting slides of the show, as they were the least ‘Powerpointy’.” Here is a that ‘non-powerpointy’ presentation, though I confess I did use Power Point to make it!

Human-centered design meets Agile Development View more presentations from Maria Giudice. Often I wonder where is all this heading. While some believe that the two are definitely going to cross paths in the near future, there are a few who think that this might not be the case. Lets go through the presentation and decide for oneself. I think that the possibilities are exciting! This is a part of the workshop that I had conducted recently at the National Institute of Technology, Trichy as a part of their college festival Pragyan. Introduction To Light Painting View more presentations from Kshitiz Anand. This is a part of the presentation that I gave at Pragyan 2009 at National Institute of Technology, Trichy. It is based on a simple that I ask myself, everytime I think about taking a photograph. Here in the presentation are the list of factors that I think go into the making of a good photograph. If you notice, the camera is at the last slide. It is because of a fundamental belief that I have. Its not the camera that makes a good photograph. it’s the photographer and their vision.
