I bring together design, video, and motion to craft things that feel cinematic and make people feel something.

Where creativity meets strategy, brands and creators find their most powerful expression.

Currently helping make podcasts great.

    Creative Lead, Longwave Digital

    I'm a Creative Lead and podcast trailer producer based in Leeds, UK. For over eight years I've worked at the intersection of design, video, and storytelling, crafting content that moves people before a single word lands.

    My career began in Mumbai at Publicis Groupe, where I spent three years producing video campaigns for Amazon India, L'Oreal Matrix, ZEE5, and Siemens. That grounding in brand storytelling, tight deadlines, global clients, high standards, shaped how I think about craft and communication.

    In 2021 I moved to the UK and joined Longwave Digital as Creative Lead. Since then I've specialised in podcast trailer production for some of the most prominent names in the space, including shows featuring Oprah, MrBeast, Ava DuVernay, 2 Chainz, and more. I believe a great trailer is a film in miniature: every frame earns the next.

    My process is rooted in restraint. I find the story first, then let that dictate the edit, the score, the colour, the pace. The result is work that feels inevitable, not decorated.

    "I highly recommend Rahul as an editor and would love to work together again. A wizard with editing at a very early age, it has been a treat to see him grow and develop as a creative professional. Dedicated to his craft, not shy of exploring unknown territories, and a great team-player. 10/10 would recommend."
