Chinmay Rane

Chinmay is one of those people who believes that, life could only be lived by traveling. Living his belief, he has traveled all over India looking for places that are least disturbed by the ills of human development. Experiencing these small fragments in the country portrays the true soul of India. Chinmay aspires to spend his life at some these places and establish a film/art school where people from all age groups could come and express themself through their creativity and life experience. Having that goal in mind he currently works on the creative elements of Felis, which he feels is a great platform providing an opportunity to learn, experience and express new things every day through the addictive medium of Filmmaking.

Vydhehi Kadur

Traveling through the forests of South India since a young age has encouraged me to develop an avid interest in wildlife and conservation.

With a background in Environmental Science and Design, I have worked on several diverse projects such as designing wilderness gardens, studying captive Asian elephants and conducting research on the impact of the iron ore mining industry in Karnataka.

With a passion for art, design and photography I firmly believe that they are powerful channels I can draw on to raise awareness. Presently, I am working along with Sangeetha Kadur on illustrations of Hummingbirds, for a book on the 'Hummingbirds of the World'.
