Janak Bhatt

They say a picture is worth thousand words and here I am through words trying to draw a picture of who I am. My name is Janak Bhatt, and besides being a student of life, I am all about art. For the last 7 years I have worked as a graphic artist, visualizer and film director.

Colours fascinate me, giving life to ideas drive me to the edge and at the end of the day I am all about ‘heart of art’. I am innovative with good critical judgment and work well within a team structure. The ability to perform well under pressure and meet all my deadlines are couple of my key assets.

I have the confidence and experience to guide all idea sessions and briefings as and when required. Art is my passion and communication – my forte.
