The StudioIt was in 1997 that the three founder directors started with the belief that an animation studio needed to be a place where we searched for our artistic and national identity thru this amazing art form. We got together without the slightest backing or support and no infrastructure to speak of. Today, our greatest sense of satisfaction stems from the fact that we never compromised our principles in the most trying of situations. We worked the razors edge balancing our desire to pour our souls out in our !lms while running the studio doing commercial work which paid the bills with an equal amount of sincerity & zeal.
The Founder Directors:
Gayatri RaoHaving done her B.F.A. from the College of Arts, Delhi and Masters in Design (M.Des.) in Visual Communication, from IDC, IIT-Powai, Bombay, where she was a pioneered animation as a medium by creating her !rst short !lm ‘CALLS OF ANIMALS’ on alternative teaching methods. She has had the rare distinction of doing an internship at Walt Disney Studios, Florida sponsored by UNICEF where she grasped the spirit of classical animation which she passed on to her hungry for knowledge colleagues back in India. She also created as her project there, a minute long !lm on female infanticide which moved many of her distinguished mentors at Disney. She also pioneered stylised animation commercials in India and directed the animation for Mahakapi, a !lm based on the Jataka tale of the Monkey King, for CFSI, which won the prestigious UNESCO Award in 1997. A true designer whose clear and often critical insight and aesthetics informs all the studio’s projects, her vision for Raju & I helped it to transcend the general limitations of a public service message !lm to become the most critically acclaimed Indian animation !lm, winning her the National Award for Best Animation Director in 2005. She loves to create and started RAWWORKS a project which seeks to bridge the gap between the traditional and contemporary by creating utility products inspired by traditional and tribal art forms.

Chetan Sharma Considered by many to be India’s foremost classical 2D animator, started in animation when he was 15 and worked his way with a commitment and attention to detail that have resulted in some of the best animation India has produced. Winner of the National Award as the Best Animator in 2005, and a self taught artist, he inspires passion and devotion towards the drawn art and continues to hold aloft the !ag of 2D animation in creating new and exciting characters and worlds. His experience in Live-action "lms, designing and storyboarding some of the most widely acclaimed commercials and "lms of our time like Happydent, XBox 360 & Ekalvya has also honed the cinematic quality of his vision.
Sumant Rao An aeronautics engineer from IIT, Mumbai, he took to the design stream in IDC, IIT and with Gayatri, was a pioneer in animation techniques in the visual communication stream, his ingenuity and innate understanding of animation making up for the lack of proper facilities. Work in the emerging and then in its infancy, computer graphics industry, his animation sense once morehelped in overcoming many software/hardware related shortcomings in the business at large creating many memorable e#ects in advertising "lms. His knowledge and experience were utilised by Discreet Logic (now Discreet) as a consultant as he provided many "lmmakers in India with their "rst glimpses of computer graphics in "lms and also trained a generation of editors and e#ects artists in the artistic use of these high end softwares.He is one of the country’s top e#ects directors, having supervised and executed many scores of ad "lms for top production houses as well as feature "lms like Ekalvya and Hey Ram which won the National Award for Best Special E#ects in 1999.
