Surabhi Krishna Srivastava is probably one of my most favourite actors of the younger generation. She is a powerhouse performer. What fascinates me even more is her process.
The way she prepares for a character, observes details, and builds a performance often feels surprisingly close to how I approach cinematography. In fact, I have picked up a thing or two simply by watching her work.
There is an honesty, energy, and commitment she brings to every role, and that energy inevitably finds its way into the frame as well.
Here, Surabhi shares her thoughts on our creative association, the process of collaboration between actor and cinematographer, and a few words about the upcoming workshop.

Cinema starts with how you see things. It’s your point of view.
I’ve spent years learning this in film school, and even more years learning it the hard way on real sets through both success and failure.
This workshop goes beyond basic theory, and a bit deeper than what you usually find in books or YouTube. We’ll learn how to read and create images, and then move into how cinematographers think and how visual choices shape storytelling.
Along with that, we’ll focus on real-world filmmaking- how to prep, compose, light, shoot and handle practical challenges on set, and how to apply your ideas under pressure.
A 3-day cinematography intensive for those who want to really understand how cinematography works and how to practice it. All details are in the poster and also in the registration link. Registration link is in the comment box.
