I’m Shashi Varsha Karthikea, a film and television production (directing) graduate from the University of York, UK, based in London. I love building creative stories from the ground up—directing scenes, shaping scripts, and bringing projects to life through editing and cinematography. My work also extends into graphic design and interactive/social media content, so I enjoy thinking about both the on-screen narrative and the visual identity that surrounds it. Alongside my directing focus, I’ve gained hands-on experience supporting production and post-production workflows, collaborating with design teams, and creating short-form promotional and documentary-style videos. I’m especially motivated by new challenges and opportunities to keep growing as a media professional—whether that’s developing screen media projects, improving my technical toolkit, or collaborating on independent film productions.…I’m Shashi Varsha Karthikea, a film and television production (directing) graduate from the University of York, UK, based in London.
