March 14, 2021

Film director, writer, and producer Kushaal Chawla has directed multiple advertisements for some of India’s top brands. Most recently, the MA Film & Production alum directed the music video commercial for LG Electronics featuring popular Indian rapper Badshah. 

Chawla also produced the commercial, which promoted the LG Tone Free Earbuds, under his production house Dream Slate Pictures, based out of New Delhi. 

“I had the opportunity of being taught by some really good instructors who taught me the most practical things about film directing, which I will continue to use forever,” shared Chawla. “A special mention to Mr. David Newman who is responsible for all the directing tactics and perfectionism that he instilled in me, and also Mr. Neil Casey,  who enhanced my knowledge of cinematography and helped make me a technically sound director.”

“In addition to the instructors, NYFA has a great curriculum that includes practical applications and multiple filming projects at the best studios of Hollywood that make students well versed with the practicality of making movies by actually filming them as opposed to just learning about them.”

He is currently working on a new screenplay for an upcoming feature film, and his most recent film, Another Time, which has been part of fifteen international film festivals and has won a handful of awards. It can currently be seen on Amazon Prime Video in the US and UK.
