For this week’s #StorytellerSpotlight, we got in touch with Veeru Murugappan, Founder & Director of Coromandel Productions Pte. Ltd. and Co-owner of barn media.
Among many other things, Veeru and his crew have worked on some of the most memorable sports montages – yup, those same ones that go viral at every ICC event!
P.S. #StorytellerSpotlight is a weekly feature where we try and get different perspectives on stories and storytelling from experienced industry pros – from journalists and writers to filmmakers and artists.
