Vee Chauhan — Producer
Shot entirely on anamorphic lenses on a tight budget. Post-production involved 3D CGI vendors for the G-Wagon and a fully virtual recreation of the Los Angeles road environment — built by production company Virtu Third — so we could achieve sequences that were impossible to shoot practically. AI-generated visuals were woven into the edit for inserts and cutaways, filling gaps and making the production feel bigger than the budget.

“My job is to translate a designed visual intention into footage that communicates it — to someone who was not in the room when the idea was formed.”
Cinematographer.
London.
London-based cinematographer and filmmaker of Indian origin, trained on MetFilm School's accelerated BA (Hons) Practical Filmmaking programme — specialising in Cinematography & Production. Four years of experience and 20+ projects across documentary, music, commercial, and architecture.
Camera credits range from the BBC's Idris Elba documentary and music videos for Tinie Tempah, Sammy Virji, and Dappy, to fashion commercials for YSL Beauty (with Dua Lipa) and Christian Dior, brand films for Royal Enfield, and ad campaigns for PhonePe. Across genres, the through-line is craft — wide-angle compositions, controlled movement, and disciplined exposure.
A parallel architectural practice pushes that same craft toward built environments — translating volume, material, and light into footage that reveals how a space is meant to be experienced. The result is a portfolio that bridges the literal precision of architecture with the emotional weight of storytelling.
