Faces Music Video
"Faces" is a melodious composition by the Easy Wanderlings , an acclaimed independent band hailing from India. They are well-known for their ethereal tunes and their music often showcases influences from Soul Pop and Indie Folk genres.
The film accompanying this song portrays the poignant journey of an elderly man as he looks back on his life. It beautifully encapsulates a series of treasured moments as well as episodes of regret that he encountered throughout his life's journey.
Faces won an award at a California-based film festival - Short To The Point in the narrative category
Magnum Ice Cream Commercial
Shot on vintage 35mm film, this commercial transports us back to the golden age of advertising. It delves into the identities and emotions of our two main characters, illuminating their journey of discovery and mutual love for Magnum ice cream. By combining the allure of nostalgia with a modern tale of indulgence, the narrative beautifully captures the irresistible charm of this timeless dessert treat.
PSA - Better Help
This spec commercial is a compelling narrative about two friends engaged in a conversation about another friend, only to culminate in the vital lesson: "Talk to your friend, not ABOUT your friend." I had the opportunity to both shoot and produce this commercial as part of my capstone project for the MA in Cinematography course at the New York Film Academy.
Given my passion for advocating mental health awareness, this storyline presented the perfect opportunity to weave in a tale that was not just engaging, but also carried a profound message. The objective was to use the medium of film to shine a spotlight on the importance of direct communication, particularly in the context of mental health.
