Director | Cinematographer | Editor
My name is Vicram Chatterjee, a 21 year old filmmaker from Chicago, Illinois.
Ever since I started making movies back in 6th grade, creating stories really captivated me. After endless hours of practice, I started to post my own original content on YouTube. I’ve worked on a multitude of projects since then, each teaching me more about why I love what I do.
In December of 2020, I graduated from the University of Texas at Austin, where I was the Social Media Head and Web Designer of the ΔKA Cinematic Fraternity, and a videographer for Texas Athletics.
In my last semester of college, I started full-time at JW Entertainment as the Director of Photography and have worked my way up to be the Creative Director of JW Entertainment. We are a food media production company with an audience of over 8 million followers across all social media, and average at least 1 million views a week on our content.
Throughout my years as a creative, I have collaborated with amazing content creators, worked with multiple companies such as Netflix and Samsung, and have won honors including a Student Emmy Award for Best Director in the Midwest Region in 2017.
I strive to make my work better every day and I hope that through this site you enjoy my hard work and passion.
