I am a creative filmmaker with a solid 10 years of experience in the Malayalam film industry. I believe cinema plays a crucial role in shaping and influencing society, and so I believe in using it as a tool to convey social messages via experimentation in various genres. My field of expertise includes - Direction and Screenplay, Advanced Videography, Video Editing, Photography, and Television programme production. I am attentive to details and help a student analyze his/her potential and polish his/her skills. I believe in interactive classes- clearing doubts, topic-based conversations, discussions on the latest technology and methods, helping students with their assignments and Homeworks, also help students come up with new ideas. I am willing to pool my expertise and knowledge in the field of direction and filmmaking to help budding filmmakers master their skills.
