I feel incredibly fortunate to have had the opportunity to learn the art of documentary filmmaking under the guidance of Ms. Shalini Raghaviah. Her passion for the subject and dedication to teaching left a lasting impression on me. Ms. Raghaviah has a remarkable ability to inspire and nurture creativity. She encouraged us to think outside the box, push our boundaries, and tell stories that truly matter. Her hands-on approach to teaching allowed us to learn by doing, which is invaluable in the world of filmmaking.
She was always approachable and open to our ideas, creating a collaborative and nurturing learning environment.
In addition to technical expertise, she instilled in us a deep appreciation for storytelling and the power of documentaries to shed light on important issues. She emphasized the ethical responsibilities that come with documentary filmmaking, teaching us to approach our subjects with sensitivity and respect.
Thank you for your unwavering dedication to your students and the art of storytelling.
