About

Growing up in the hills of Uttarakhand, I’ve always felt a deep connection to nature. The breathtaking landscapes, the changing seasons, and the ever-present calmness of the mountains have shaped the way I see the world. Nature’s beauty never fails to inspire me, and I often find myself reflecting on how it mirrors the complexities of human emotions and experiences. Now based out of Mumbai, I work as a Cinematographer and Animator and I'm lucky that my job takes me across different places, giving me the opportunity to interact with diverse cultures and ideas. Traveling has enriched my understanding of the world, offering new perspectives and fueling my creativity.

Testimonial

Hendrik Hinzel

( Producer , Documentary Filmmaker )

I hired Anuradha for a documentary I directed in India remotely from the U.S.From the first call I felt much more at ease about not being able to be there, feeling my project would be in great hands with her. She was able to take the lead independently on how to execute the vision and specific style for the documentary. Thanks to her impeccable eye she provided us with first class visuals. She also took on the mission to take new and less experienced crew members we hired under her wing and train them.

Anuradha is one of the most talented Cinematographers I've had the pleasure of working with. We first met on a months-long documentary shoot, after which she became my go-to DP for domestic and international projects. Anuradha knows her art form well, is a team player and gives 100% to every project she's part of. You'd be lucky to have her on your team.

Anuradha Pathak is an image smith who knows a story's visual journey from the papers to the screen. She is a director's delight to work with. A fabulous human being to stand by your side in the moments of need. She brings a strong female POV to the story telling and that's her strength.

Anuradha and her team have been nothing short of phenomenal in terms of professionalism and delivery. I worked on a project with them that demanded rigorous design ,animation and nuance. Despite the challenges, the team fulfilled every lapse and fulfilled it with constructive criticisms that added more to the creative process and benefited the overall outlook.

Making a film is all about having people who are truly passionate, people who can consider it as their own baby and put forth the best efforts to grow it into something amazing, even if they have to fight for it tooth and nail. I can count at least a dozen and a half scenes that had the potential to look very ordinary, had it been any other DoP instead of Anuradha. She has worked pretty much on every aspect that could improve the visual style, right from framing and staging and blocking to lighting to choreography to hair/makeup and costume selection and what not.. The fact that all those scenes that I have been worried about, are looking not just beautiful but memorable (at least a few of them) , make me realize what an immense impact she has had towards enriching the looks of this film.

I have worked with Anuradha for more than 5 years on both fiction and non-fiction projects. I definitely recommend working with her.Her eye for detail in every shot is commendable, and she has an in-depth knowledge of lighting as well.

"I recently completed post-production of my first feature film, The Kinloch Doc, and I am beyond elated at the final look. I knew I wanted to integrate animation into the film but had never done so before, so didn't necessarily know where to look or what to be looking for when requesting portfolios. I put out a request in the Brown Girls Doc Mafia FB page and Anuradha immediately responded with the link to her previous work. We hopped on a call and I knew instantly that this would be a good fit. Despite there being a major time difference, Anuradha and her partner Ahmed were always available and thorough with any questions I had. Once the ball got rolling and sketches were made for the animation, they were sure to send my way for approval and made any necessary changes. They operate at a very smooth and seamless pace. They worked within my budget and provided something that was worth way more. I have no complaints about my experience with Anuradha and Ahmed and would recommend them to anyone with animation needs for their film."

Anuradha is the cinematographer I can trust all kinds of projects with. I've seen her tackle documentaries, adverts, short films, even music videos! And always with a can-do attitude that is both reassuring and proof of her ability to make magic happen no matter the odds.

Working with Anuradha has been an absolute privilege. Her keen eye for detail, coupled with her ability to tell a story through the lens, sets her apart as a truly gifted Cinematographer. Anuradha possesses an incredible sense of visual aesthetics, each shot she frames is a masterpiece, meticulously crafted to evoke emotion and enhance the narrative. Her collaborative nature and open-mindedness make working on set with her not only productive but inspiring. She brings both creativity and technical expertise, always pushing the boundaries of what's possible while maintaining a calm and encouraging presence. Anuradha doesn’t just capture moments—she brings them to life with depth, beauty, and authenticity. I am consistently amazed by her dedication, vision, and the unique perspective she brings to every project.
