About Shibani B.

I love stories. I am a storyteller at heart, and telling unique stories drives me. We all relate in some form or another, and stories are the key to human connection. I make films to raise awareness among diverse audiences and inspire viewers to make positive contributions. For the past four years, I've worked as a film producer and editor on both local and international film shoots, including two feature documentaries. I work as a one-woman team to produce, shoot, and edit short format corporate films. I hunt for stories that humanize the marginalized, expose different angles of an argument, and impassion viewers to take action. I strive to help viewers understand people and emotions through beautiful images. I'm extremely hardworking and very adventurous. I enjoy taking artistic risks, challenging myself, and using my creativity to tell fresh, innovative stories.
