Hand of God- Monetrix

This year Monetrix- the finance club of SCMS came back with its biggest event from last year “Hand of God” v2.0 on 9th September 2014. It was divided in two rounds – elimination round and the final round. It was a team based event, having four people in each team.

The elimination round was conducted in TY-D on the 6th floor of the college. There were about 22 teams that took part in this round. Each team was given a set of 20 questions of 1 mark each. They were given 15 minutes each to solve these questions. These questions were based on football and transfer market. Participants were not allowed to use internet for these answers. One team scored a 20/20 and was directly sent to the final round.

For the final round 8 teams were chosen on the basis of the elimination round. The final round was based on transfer market. Each team had to bid for a club. They were given an option of 10 clubs. Participants were given a list of the teams were a fixed capital for the same. After acquiring the clubs, teams had to take out 9 players and put them up for auction for other teams to buy. They were only allowed to buy 7 players, such that their squad was of only 21 players.

After that they were asked to make a squad for one match out of the players left with them. Teams had to keep in mind that each player could play only 2 matches in total and there were only 4 matches to be played. After that a surprise element was introduced. Teams could now buy legends. These players had a higher base price, no salary, fetched more revenue and could only play one match. After the auction, participants were asked to send their squads for 3 more matches and then these were uploaded on Facebook for the teams to collect likes.


WAR OF DJs- ENCORE

After pulling off successful events like ‘Tribute To The Legends’ and ‘Crew Launch’, it was time to put up another great show. EDM being one of the most popular genres today, Encore decided on hosting ‘War of DJs’. The event was an inter-college competition which involved five DJs showcasing their skills and battling it out to prove themselves.

The event took place on the 3rd September, 2014. We had participants from SCMS, SIMC and SID. The venue was the highlight of the evening. We organized the competition in our college basement. Right from contacting the sound technicians, decorating the basement with lights to marketing the event, the afternoon of 3rd September was a busy affair for Encore.

As the clock struck 5, we were finally through with our work and were ready to roll. The basement was flooded with a humungous crowd- something which hadn’t happened in this college before. The footfall was around 250 students. Our judge for the evening were tripshot crew, a well known duo from Mumbai and Harshman, who has enormous experience and has played numerous gigs.

Participant after participant, the crowd continued to be entertained and enthralled. They cast their votes on post-its for the participant who they thought was the most deserving. After a long two hours of cheering, clapping and dancing, the event came to a close. The results were announced the next day. Devansh from SID took the cake and was declared as the winner.

CANVAS- VASUNDHARA

Vasundhara, in its fourth event for the semester, brought to all five institutions of Symbiosis Viman Nagar Campus, a chance to bring art, management and marketing together, in a way no one could’ve imagined. With a two part competition, held on 13th and 15th September, it aimed to find creative and out of the box ways to get students to understand the importance of environmental conservation- through painting, drawing and sketching. Having teamed up with the NGO Blue Cross especially for this event, the club hoped to spread awareness on prevalent issues such as animal cruelty. In the first part of the competition, the participants were given a white chart paper, and were allowed to paint, draw or sketch, and let their imaginations run wild, only restricted by the theme- the Environment. In the second part of the competition, participants were told to sell their paintings, for the purpose of a fundraiser, a portion of which was promised as a return to them for working so hard at raising funds. The rest, was directed to the NGO for vaccination of dogs, and proper treatment of them. The club managed to donate 10000+ rupees toward the NGO and managed to keep their participants just as happy. The participants were not only happy, but pleasantly surprised by the way the event was conducted.

The campus was coated with posters and brimming with enthusiasm. The sponsorship support received for the event was enormous. At 12:00 sharp, the lobby of the college campus smelt of the aromas of sandwiches, rolls, biryani and momos. People of the college rushed to the stalls and flooded the entire area for the hours that followed. The turnout at the food stalls was beyond expectations. But that was not it.

For the next four hours the members of the core committee worked continuously calling the different participants, the judges, getting different specifications in place and marketing the event. When the clock finally struck 5:00, the stage was set. The walls of the auditorium began reverberating with the sounds of the MC’s voices – Jasprit Singh Sudan and Rohan Jolly. The finals had officially begun. The show opened with a soulful rendition of ‘Teri Deewani’ by a sponsor ‘DD School of Rock’. The competition was ignited by an eruption of cheers and applause from the audience and the presence of the judges ‘Indo Gypsies’ who had come all the way from Mumbai just for the competition.

Each band kept taking it up a notch and taking the standard of performances higher. One after the other- Moonlight Flame, Switch, Circle of Fifths, Parallel Universe, Altered Theory and After Acoustics- kept enthralling and entertaining the audience and took the competition to a whole new level. The event closed with an acoustic performance by two of the members of ‘Indo Gypsies’.
