Pranav
Director
Short movies like ‘New Year’s Eve’ & ‘Wolf of Chawl Street’ were awarded at festivals across the globe, after winning at MAMI. I studied briefly at MET London in 2016, and was an International fellow at Vanishing Angle’s STF Lab in Malibu, CA in 2020, and more recently, a part of the Academy at the Zurich Film Festival in 2022.
As a teen boy, I led a team that produced niche skits, and turned writer-director when commissioned to create a coming-of-age web-series titled ‘The Insiders’ (2016) for TVF & MXPlayer.
I’ve directed campaigns for brands like Volkswagen, Bumble, Xiaomi, Levi’s and helped spin their films to life.
I occasionally act on screen.’Dungeon_Master’ from TVF’s ‘Pitchers’ is a character I played that stuck around. The pandemic got me into making music as well, so I have songs on Spotify & Apple Music. I suppose the list is fluid and one can’t confidently say I won’t pursue belly-dancing next.
‘Screaming on the fly’ a project I created the song & music video for, is officially in competition at SXSW in Austin, 2023. Music videos from other musicians in competition include the fantastic ‘Alt-J’, ‘Mac Miller’, ‘Little Simz’& ‘Diplo’.
I am a fan of extraordinary things and a non-fan of average things. Empathy is sanity. Swipe left for more
