Season 2 - Episode 6 - The Art of Story Telling through visuals - In conversation with Kavi Arasu

Season 2 - Episode 6 - The Art of Story Telling through visuals - In conversation with Kavi Arasu

Today we are talking to Kavi Arasu, a founding member of Flyntrok, a consulting firm that specialises in reimagining work, learning, culture and change.

He is a photography enthusiast, celebrated blogger and an expert in story telling. He is also a childhood friend of mine. We grew up together and went to the same schools. So, I am pretty excited to connect up with him again to talk about the power of imagery, the art of storytelling and along the way we discuss why it is important to have a hobby. 

I enjoyed the conversation with Kavi and I hope you will too!

I have the privilege of calling him a good friend of mine. He is a fantastic creative brain charting his own course across the high seas and the tall mountains that dot this world. He is a film maker with a unique style of telling stories and today I get to peek into his creative brain.

Season 2 - Episode 2 - In conversation with Vivek Chugh, film maker & photographer from Goa, India

Welcome to Season 2 Episode 2 of the photography podcast , photo chat with friends.

Today we are talking to Vivek Chugh, the chief creative officer of visual juju, a video production agency based in Goa India.

He is a film maker and photographer. I first met VC when I moved to Goa about 5 odd years ago to take up a position as business manager at Visual Juju. At that point he was a colleague and was heading one of the business units at Synapse, the parent company of visual juju.

His presentations are legendary and he was the guy who introduced me to the camera and showed me the nuances of nailing the perfect exposure.

In this conversation we explore his journey from a marketer in the corporate world to all things photography.
