Illinois Tech Mumbai · Lectures, then the atrium
Costumes in every lecture, games in the atrium, and a DJ set that sent every ghost to the dance floor.
It turns to face you. Tap it to blow out the candle.
Ext. Campus — morning
Walking into the campus on the day of the Halloween celebrations was exhilarating to say the least. It felt like walking on to a movie set where everyone was following a different script. Everyone had arrived to the lectures in their costumes and the excitement was evident!
[A line or two about the costumes: the best ones, the most committed, the ones nobody recognised.]
Int. Atrium — after class
Once classes were wrapped, people gathered at the atrium for the games and activities. We started with a classic game - Musical chairs. Although an old one, it definitely brought people joy and memories.
Five ghosts, five chairs, and you. When the music stops, grab a seat.
When the music stops, tap any free chair (or press Space for the nearest one). Too slow and you're out. Each round loses a chair.
[Who won musical chairs, and the closest call of the round.]
Int. Atrium — continuous
Then came the definite crowd-pleaser - the lemon spoon relay but instead with ping-pong balls decorated in a way to look like eyeballs, keeping up with the theme. The place was filled with laughter and cheering for their respective teammates.
Tilt with the buttons below, the ← and → keys, or by moving over the track.
Rolling right? Tilt left. Rolling left? Tilt right. The arrow helps on leg 1 only; watch for gusts.
[Which team won the relay, and the best eyeball rescue.]
Int. Atrium — night
Last but certainly not least came the DJ set, which sent all the ghosts and characters onto the dance floor, while sweet treats were showered over the crowd.
Behind the decks were two of our own students, Tarun Talreja and Shambhavi Bhardwaj. [The song that packed the floor.]
[One closing line on the night: how it ended, and what everyone will remember.]
The night, frame by frame.
What people said about the night.
