Portrait of Vanitha Daswani

Approach

Story first. Human creativity always.

I specialise in cinematic storytelling, generative AI and creative production. My MA in Creative Writing and Publishing (Distinction), filmmaking training and teaching background inform a practice centred on narrative, originality and human judgement.

My experience includes Kling AI, Midjourney and DaVinci Resolve. Alongside my film practice, I continue to deliver practical, responsible AI training for education and the creative industries.

Background

Experience across sectors

Filmmaking & creative production

Filmmaking training and experience with Kling AI, Midjourney and DaVinci Resolve support a creative practice in generative AI and cinematic storytelling.

MA in Creative Writing and Publishing

Awarded with Distinction. A foundation in narrative, creative writing and publishing informs the journey from story idea to cinematic expression.

Education background

A grounding in education underpins everything: how people learn, how understanding is built step by step, and how new tools earn their place in a classroom rather than being bolted on.

Teaching experience

Years of classroom and workshop teaching shape the delivery style — clear explanation, plenty of modelling, and space for participants to try things for themselves.

Creative writing and publishing

Working as a writer brings first-hand understanding of drafting, editing and the publishing process, and of why voice and originality matter so much to authors.

Marketing experience

Experience of content and campaign work informs the marketing programme, with a focus on practical workflows, brand voice and measurable time savings.

AI training

Vanitha delivers recorded courses, live Zoom workshops, bespoke organisational training, speaking and consultancy across education and the creative industries.

Doctoral research

Doctoral research explores the use of Generative AI in book-to-film adaptation, with a focus on creativity, authorship, storytelling and responsible AI practice.
