Katta ya Goli? (Gun or Pill?)
Role : Production Design Lead
Ravi and Akash are two aimless 20 somethings who, fed up with life, decide to end it. Comedy ensues when their elderly neighbour intervenes.
The short film ‘Katta ya Goli’ is an adaptation of ‘How to Kill Yourself with a Gun and a Bottle of Pills’ (2012) by Ron Riekki.
I oversaw the visual language by continuously communicating with the cinematography, costume, production, and direction teams. Effective budget management and timeline supervision were key aspects of my role, necessitating timely sourcing, production and improvisation. On set, my responsibilities extended to hands-on art direction, ensuring the placement of props, furniture and lights for authenticity and continuity with set elements, and actors within the frame.
