Dhyana Written and Directed by Suchet Budon
Starring: Michael Budon as 'Wan', Chung Wong as 'Hia', Baldeep Dhillon as 'Gobind'

Also starring: Amalia Farmeliari, Arpna Kiri, Suchet Budon, Poonam Panesar, Bina Mistry and Neelam Mahay.

Voice cast: Michael Budon as 'Hia', Suchet Budon 'Gobind'. Characters in power-out scene following the volcanoe are voiced by Michael Budon and Suchet Budon.

The Gandhi and Hitler voice recordings have their own copyright - I could have acted/impersonated the voices myself but decided on the originals as the quality was excellent for what I was trying to achieve. These voice recordings of Ghandi and Hitler are subject to their own copyright -

The radio news broadcast of Russian volcanoe exploding was from the 50s or 60s - I could have acted this voice recording out myself but again as with the Ghandi and Hitler recordings - I decided to go with the original as it was so dramatic. This is also subject to its own copyright.

The reason I selected these recordings was because they were powerful distractions - You cant help but listen to these characters when they talk. Wan visited many areas through the power of meditation - He could see past, present, and future. He was sitting in one of the most dangerous spots on the planet, he had no fear because his master taught him the power of meditation.

Dhyana.

My movie about a Budhist monk and his Sikh Guru meditating in the Himalayas. This movie won the Best Sound award at the 2005 Degree Show Exhibition for Animation Students at The University I studied at. I was well pleased to receive this award as I had produced and mixed the soundtrack. I also dubbed a few of the character voices myself - My brother Michael Budon was the star though, He did Voice acting for at least 3 of the characters in the movie and played the lead role of Wan (The young Budhist Monk).

I did everything on this movie - filming, animation, blue screen filming, screenplay, sound effects, sound track composition - It was a nightmare shoot and Post Production was hard as I had other assignments at the time but I managed to get a good audience and win an award -
I am in the process of making a more epic version of this movie (Less experimental more Dances With Wolves style.)- maybe actualy going out into the Himalayas with a big cast of actors would be cool.

For the production of this movie I used a Canon MVX100i Camcorder, a tripod, a huge Blue screen studio, various locations around the Midlands which I would digitaly alter to look like the Himalayan landscape - also some of the landscape had to be digitaly created from scratch.
