Not everything we create is meant for reach âĽď¸
Some films are just our way of expressing what lies beyond the tangible. The details you almost miss, the quiet story behind the object, the drama that exists beyond the physical form of furniture.
This film for @umber_furniture.co came from that space. Slowing down, observing, and letting the material and light guide us.
A lot goes into imagining, preparing, shooting, and shaping something like this. And it only comes together because of the people behind it.
Grateful to the Umber team for trusting us with their story, and to our A-team at Crewcat for showing up with the same patience and care, every single time.

Through Ravish Vohraâs vision, Ravoh continues to shape a language of quiet luxury and timeless form.
Each piece carries a story of careful hands,
of details shaped through experience,
and of a legacy that holds its ground.
It was a privilege to witness the unveiling of Dâmore collection for @ravohofficial at @designdemocracy.in 2025.

Ravoh at Design Democracy.
A space shaped by form, material, and quiet detail.
What stayed with us were the people â
how they moved, paused, and made the space their own.
A few moments we loved documenting.

Before the frame settles,
there is movement.
Lights shifting.
Cameras adjusting.
Moments taking shape.

This project was about capturing a space where two rhythms coexist â a grandfatherâs lifetime of memories and a new generation slowly shaping their own.
Instead of treating it like a typical architecture shoot, we approached it the way we usually do: quietly observing the space, the textures, the light, and the small details that give a home its personality.
A few frames from the shoot and a glimpse into how we like to document spaces.

8 years of Iniyennum đ¤
Still one of the most special projects weâve ever made.
After Mazha, we were just a bunch of kids who loved music and films a little too much. We didnât know much about filmmaking, had almost no experience, tight budgets, and a lot of limitations â but we had a team that believed and showed up every single time.
From planning to casting, locations to long discussions, this was one of the most enjoyable projects of our early days. Looking back now, we realise how these small, passion-driven projects quietly shaped our journey and made us fall in love with filmmaking even more.
Forever grateful to everyone who stood with us and made Iniyennum possible.
Some stories grow old. Some stay with you. This one stayed.

Aluer Social was one of those days that just flowed.
Live music in the air, an amazing food spread by Adaminte Chayakkada, familiar faces everywhere, and so many small moments that made the celebration feel special.
Sharing a few of our favourite frames from a day filled with smiles, laughter, conversations, and togetherness.
Exactly the kind of celebration we love documenting.

Our work for Umber being featured in Architectural Digest India is one of those moments that quietly means a lot to us. A project built on patience, trust, and a shared love for honest materials and timeless design.

Sharing one of our favourite film from last year â Shades of Green by Oorja Designs.
Heartfelt thanks to the entire Oorja team for trusting us with this story and giving us the space to capture the exhibition the way it felt. A project we truly enjoyed from start to finish.
