Phanindra Narsetti

Biography:

He is a self-taught filmmaker who was born in 1988 in Andhra Pradesh, India, and is adamant that creativity cannot be taught. When he told his family about his passion for movies, they put a lot of pressure on him to enroll in a film school or work for a director, neither of which he supports. He therefore began his career from the beginning by creating short films and entering international advertising contests. For Mofilm, which had hosts like Jon Landau, Forest Whitaker, Jesse Eisenberg, and others, he received two international honors at the Goa and Kathmandu festivals.

In 2010 and 2011, respectively, which let him start his career in the top 10 Mofilm Indian filmmakers. The intensity and advantages of studying independently, being allowed to make mistakes, and always improving one’s craft became clear to him at that point. He began to experiment more as a result. As a result, he experimented with his first short film, Backspace, which he shot, edited, and dubbed entirely with an iPhone 4s. This was the first of its kind at the time, and it later encouraged many other enthusiasts to give it a try.
