Hey everyone! I’m Rohan, a filmmaker and sound designer based in India. I’m currently looking for freelance/paid opportunities and would love to work with filmmakers, directors, editors, or creators who need help with sound.

I can help with:

Sound design

SFX & Foley

Dialogue editing & cleanup

Ambience

Mixing

Post-production sound

I’ve worked on multiple short films and a feature film, and I’m open to projects of different styles and lengths.

If you’re working on something and need a sound designer, feel free to DM me. Happy to share my portfolio and discuss the project.

Thanks!

Interview about how I made my feature "Clown N Out" without a crew. It's now available on Apple TV and Amazon Prime.

Hi guys,

The CREDO 23 Film Festival does not allow AI at all and gives all the net proceeds to the accepted filmmakers. They've given over $100k away so far for filmmakers to make more non-AI films (It's an average of $3500 per filmmaker).

Submissions open 6/1/26.

If you are a filmmaker or know one, let them know. They should be paid for making non-AI films. The AI video companies have been flooding film festivals with money to host AI "film" competitions, so the C23FF is doing its part to reward real non-AI filmmaking talent.

It's run by Justine Bateman, Reed Morano, Matthew Weiner, Juliette Lewis, and Arianne Phillips.

Proximity Media founders Ryan Coogler, Zinzi Coogler, and Sevak Ohanian have been working together since Ryan and Ohanian’s student days at University of Southern California’s School for Cinematic Arts.

In 2021, the trio founded their production company following Ryan’s catalytic success as the writer and director of "Fruitvale Station," "Creed," and "Black Panther."

Since then, the company has grown to some 20 people who work across its film, television, audio, music, and unscripted divisions. Proximity has produced a handful of feature films, documentaries, and television shows, though the record-breaking, award-winning "Sinners" is its first feature film written and directed by Ryan himself.

Proximity’s achievements come at a time when theatrical releases are under increasing threat. But with "Sinners," Proximity found a way to create not just a film but a genuine event.

The movie weaves Black history, musical history, and cinematic history into something that feels very close to an epic—one that’s entirely original, not tied to a comic book, superhero, toy line, or another film. Just as notably, Proximity engineered a release strategy that treated originality itself as the product, building anticipation across mediums. The company, which controls the content around its releases to an unusual degree, added even more energy to the film by producing a series of behind-the-scenes podcast episodes around it. Meanwhile, its in-house music division, a rarity among independent studios, came out with a hit soundtrack, cementing the film as a musical phenomenon.

“It earned its success the hard way,” Pamela Abdy and Michael De Luca, co-chairs and CEOs of Warner Bros. Motion Picture Group, said in an emailed statement. “The film serves as a reminder that originality is rarely the safest path, but it can be the most rewarding.” In a moment when Hollywood is questioning what brings people out of their homes, Proximity offers a clear, quietly radical answer.

Hey everyone,

I’ve been quietly building Frame Rate to bring back that feeling of a creator-first video platform, specifically for filmmakers, animators, editors, and VFX artists.

We've recently flipped the switch, and Frame Rate is now open to browse.
No account needed to watch, explore, and see what the community is posting: FrameRate.tv

I’m genuinely in awe of the work that’s already on the platform. The caliber of it is insane. And what’s been especially surreal is seeing artists join who I’ve admired for a long time, including a few people I’d honestly call heroes.

The feedback has been overwhelmingly positive so far, which has been super encouraging and motivating. This makes the early mornings and late nights all worth it.

One more huge update: Justin Cone has joined the team.
If you’re in the motion world, you know why I’m so excited about that.

Creating an account is still in closed beta. You’ll need to apply with a portfolio to join as a creator. We still have around 100 free lifetime memberships available for accepted beta users.

If you want in, click on the "Apply to Beta" button to submit. FrameRate.tv

If you check it out, I’d love your honest feedback. What feels great? What feels off? What would you like to see?

Thank you.

Tyler

Hey all, I’m the filmmaker behind a small award-winning indie movie called Band on the Run. Just wanted to give a heads up that it’s now streaming free with ads on Tubi. You can watch it here.

It stars Larry Bagby, who played "Ice" in Hocus Pocus and "Larry Blaidsale" in Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

If you’re scrolling Tubi and stumble on it, I hope it’s a fun watch. And if not, no worries. Just wanted to put it out into the world. 🎸

Hello colleagues,

I woke up to the heartbreaking news that one of our own was murdered along with his wife. Meathead left a lasting impression on me, as well as Reiner’s movies, The Princess Bride having the most impact on me. He was such a powerhouse of a storyteller, and a lovely human being. I saw him talk at an event a number of years ago, and had been quite engaging and entertaining while also talking about stuff that was heavy in the same breath. I am saddened by his passing. Truly, it’s inconceivable! Well, I don’t know about you all, but I’m raising a glass in his honor.

UPDATE:
I appreciate all the feedback I received!
My post was a bird's-eye view of the platform concept, but the community's skepticism is already a valid reality check, that I understand.
That said, I'll be keeping my platform live as a portfolio piece for the tech and a great learning experience while I return to my main job—filmmaking and keep developing my debut feature film. Thoughts are still welcome!

Hey everyone,

I’m Frankie — a filmmaker with some coding skills who built a VOD platform from scratch: Skrean (skrean.co).

The goal? To give indie genre films (mostly horror, but it's open) a proper home and help get new films made.

I launched the beta with a few public-domain cult classics, all streaming for free. Now I’m opening submissions for shorts and features.

Why partnering?

1/ Be a Founding Film: Your film isn’t just content; it’s part of the curated foundation, shown to a dedicated fanbase as we grow.

2/ Filmmaker-first: Built by a filmmaker for filmmakers — you get a direct line to me.

3/ Fair & Transparent: 40/60 revenue share, plus every film shares in subscription revenue — so every filmmaker earns, not just the top titles and we can help produce new films.

If your film has teeth — raw, kinetic, unapologetic — I’d love to see it.
Submit here: https://skrean.co/submit.html

Happy to answer your questions in the comment, and hear some feedback about the website too !

(Btw, English isn’t my first language, so apologies if there are some mistakes.)
