I am an aspiring filmmaker focused on direction and editing as a career. After completing my Bachelor’s in Media and Communication, I took on the role of an Assistant Account Executive working for a Public Relations firm based in Bengaluru, India. This stint helped me truly understand various perspectives, from organizations of various verticals and the media industry which played an integral role in voicing their opinions and making their story heard.
While this experience did shape me for a future in the traditional media landscape, my passion for cinema and television guided me to a shift, into the visual arts. I landed a role as a Story Editor (Assistant Director) for an Indian captive reality show. Here is when I was completely enamoured by what the industry had to offer as I was totally in charge of the Production Control Room (PCR), directing the shots, calling for the right sounds to be queued in, reporting to the Creative Director amongst various other responsibilities in the rapidly changing live shoot environment.
This experience deepened my love for the visual arts, following which I took on various roles as a freelancer working for various clients. It was here, that I decided to pursue this passion and began preparing to look into my postgraduate studies.
