Rajarajeshwari “RJ” Ragampudi is a self-taught Artist, Architect and Production Designer from India. Her Architecture Thesis ‘Understanding the Filmic Portrayal of Elements in Space Through the Study of Satyajit Ray’s Films to Examine the Human Emotional Relationship with the Built Environment’, stemmed from a fusion of her passion for cinema and the principles ingrained in architectural training. This set her on a path of unraveling the intricacies between spatial design and emotional resonance in cinematic narratives propelling her towards a career as a Production designer. Her goal is to design sets that are not only authentic to the setting but deeply character-driven, enhancing and punctuating key moments in the story.
