Meta Tiger is an upcoming short film by director Shreyans Zaveri. As the title suggests, the narrative lives in the virtual universe. It shows how tigers will be reduced to exist in the virtual world, which is a painful reality. Their population is so fragile that it will take minor imbalances in nature to create major long-term consequences. And one of those consequences is the disappearance of these magnificent creatures. Hence the need for immediate conservation of tigers and their habitat. Meta Tiger has been created as an animated film. This is deliberately done to show people how tigers will end up looking in the digital world if we do not protect them.
“I have been involved with different conservation efforts in India and the USA. I have partnered with organizations that deal with tiger census to protect the environment and work towards sustainability. The main idea behind Meta Tiger was to educate people and make them aware of protecting our environment,” said the director.
This is Shreyans’ second film this year on wildlife conservation. His previous one was directed towards marine life conservation titled, “If Only”. It is currently being screened at several film festivals on the global circuit. For this film, the director collaborated with multiple global conservation societies. They endorsed his film to protect marine life, especially whales.
Shreyans started working 9 years ago in the film and visual effects sector. He began working as a photographer, VFX artist, and filmmaker. He currently works as a senior director in the Silicon Valley region and directs commercials and advertisements. Some of his clients include Google, NASA, Mercedes Benz, and others. Steve Wozniak, Joe Pavelski, and Eric Schmidt are some of the notable celebrities he has worked with.
He is also the author of two highly popular fiction novels and several academic papers.
For the near future, the director has set his sights on a feature-length documentary. It is focused on the vultures and their habitats. He also has two upcoming novels, a biography, and a fiction novel, lined up for release next year.
