Tonic Worldwide unveils 'Craft' community platform

Tonic Worldwide has announced the launch of ‘Craft’ - a community platform.

It recognises the relevance of craft, celebrates creative work and helps budding talent with the resources to succeed, the agency stated in a press release.

In an era marked by relentless technological advancements, the creative industry finds itself increasingly detached from their craft. The leadership at Tonic Worldwide found the need for an industry wide initiative - a platform that unites creatives from advertising, filmmaking, branding, product design, animation, visual FX, web design and other commercial creative mediums to share knowledge and collaborate to keep the crafts alive, it added

The platform is anchored by three main pillars:

Spotlight: This segment showcases case studies across advertising, branding, product design, filmmaking, animation, visual FX, web design and other creative mediums.

Stage: Get access to learn from the best in the industry through masterclasses, round tables and quick tutorials, which empower creatives with the resources to succeed.

Studio: The platform organises workshops, designathons, writer retreats, filmmaking sessions,  hackathons, and other events which serve as incubators for creativity.

Chetan Asher, Founder and CEO, Tonic Worldwide, said, “The technological advancements have been rapidly changing the way we perceive craft. Here is a platform where  craftswomen and men come together to focus on the basics, learn from each other's process and collaborate with the ecosystem that includes advertising, marketing, communication and other commercial creative mediums”.

Ashwin Dutt Ponamgi, Head of Craft and Chief Curator, said, “A craftsperson lives for the process, and not just the outcome. If you notice, there are many innovative and groundbreaking pieces of work that go unnoticed. It has become increasingly important to create a community that shares the love for their craft, celebrates various art forms and sustains old techniques. We aim at lauding good work, engaging creatives in community events, and imparting knowledge through curated workshops”
