| TESTIMONIAL | |
| "It was truly a pleasure working with Rajat. We've worked together on several projects. I got to know him when he worked as Key Grip on a commercial I directed. Throughout multiple days of production, his energy and taste have stood out to me. He is not just your average hand on set. He is someone who goes the extra mile to make his work excellent. He is dependable, intelligent, and hardworking while also maintaining an easy-going demeanor and providing positive energy on set. I would sincerely recommend Raj as a professional who knows his role and can be counted on to execute his job well." |

| "First and foremost, Rajat Ghosh is a really great guy. During his time in Los Angeles, I had the pleasure of having him as my 1st Assistant Camera on the short film: Pink & Green for director Elias Ribiero/URUCU Media. I then went on to work as his Gaffer on the short film: Cold Stone for director Pablo Moline. Though the time was brief, I found each experience truly exceptional as Rajat brought the perfect combination of technical skill, idea generation, and problem solving to both productions. I am truly happy to recommend Rajat to anyone at anytime." |

The scope included demonstration of key capabilities, operational workflows, experience and expertise of the team to our customers globally. He and his team made an excellent effort in first thoroughly understanding the scope of the project with a detailed execution plan and then gave us very good results with the movie which thoroughly met our expectations!

| " I first met Rajat at the University of California Los Angeles, two years ago as he was extending his craft in one of the most prestigious film school in the world. I had the pleasure to work with him on several projects as Short films, music videos, and commercials. I have to say that among all the directors that I worked with, Rajat Ghosh is one of the most talented and professional one I know. His creativity, open mind, and genuine talent made our time on set an amazing experience. On one of the projects we filmed together, a music video for the singer Ayla, Rajat was amazing. Very importantly, he was also very reliable as a director, always here for the actors or the crew in any cases or for any questions. He totally helped me to grow as an actor and as a man. I would work again with Rajat Ghosh any time without hesitations and would recommend him to anyone. With his outstanding talent, he will be an asset to any film or projects. " |
