Ritvik Dhavale Email & Phone Number

As a film professional with a passion for storytelling, I have contributed to various projects in the film industry, from independent features to media finance. With a BA in Cinematography and Film/Video Production from UCLA, I have developed skills in creative writing, video editing, and video production, which I have applied in different roles and contexts.Most recently, I worked as a Creative Assistant for an original independent film at Netflix, where I supported the development and production of the project, collaborating with the director, producers, and writers. Prior to that, I was a Coordinator in the Feature Film Program at Sundance Institute, where I helped select and mentor emerging filmmakers from diverse backgrounds and perspectives. Before joining Sundance, I gained valuable experience as an Executive Assistant in the Media Finance Group at Creative Artists Agency, where I assisted in the packaging and financing of film and television projects. My goal is to create and support impactful and innovative stories that resonate with audiences and reflect the diversity and complexity of the world. I am always eager to learn new skills, explore new genres, and collaborate with talented and passionate people. When not at work, I enjoy playing cricket, immersing myself in different cultures, and using design thinking to solve problems.
