How Indian VFX studios celebrated Christmas this year!

Christmas vibe is ever so pervasive this year. Its the time of the year when everyone looks forward to the festival of gifts and merriment and celebrations. Hardly anyone has grown out of the tradition where Santa dashes through the chimney and gives us just the gift we desired for! We all celebrate the festival in a variety of ways. Christmas symbolises fulfillment of dreams and hopes. Especially Christmas movies that we love to watch with fervour, sprinkle magic in our lives with fantastically regaling stories. VFX and Animation studios play a huge part in helping filmmakers portray the idyllic and magical elements in the movies. Let’s see how they celebrated Christmas this year!

Speaking about their Christmas celebrations, redchillies.vfx spokesperson shared, “Christmas according to us is the season of new beginnings and festive vibes all around. A season to congratulate and motivate yourself and others for the wonderful work done all the year round, all while you gear up for a high spirited festive break with new goals waiting at the other end. A fresh start! ”

He added, “The shades of Christmas and Red Chillies is the same. That said, the entire office beams in scarlet shades of RED. Sleigh bells, wreaths and  shiny wall hangings adorn the entire office. This keeps the vibes of the festival alive throughout the day. This year, we planned to include a little nostalgia. A dressed up Santa would go around wishing people and handing over delicious chocolates. It was absolutely ho-ho-awesome! Everyone sang carols and songs of Christmas and it was a good break for our hardworking teams!”
