Suneesh got State Television Award

If you remember, last year i have introduced Suneesh Surendran and his documentary film "Day 3" in one of my blog posts. Today Kerala State Govt has announced Television Awards for the year 2008. Suneesh was selected as best documentary film director for this documentary. lets celebrate..!!

Let me repost my earlier write up on Suneesh

Suneesh Surendran is my very close friend. He is now working in Rose bowl channel. His latest documentary was screened in the international video film festival at Trivandrum. it is a shocking documentary about killing of street dogs in a remote village in Trivandrum. the whole documentary was shot in a day and made within a week. This documentary was telecasted many times in the channel.This time also Suneesh has proved his sense of sound and visual framing through this documentary. He got the craft with him but subject wise lacks depth. He is one of the rare documentary film makers in kerala who uses sound extremely sensible manner. In a way he plays with close ups and sound. His earlier documentary got special jury award in Malayalam Television Awards given by Kerala Govt.

I think he has the caliber to become a very good film director in malayalam. He has the talent to bring aesthetic changes in malayalam film industry..... Hope he will get the opportunity and exposure...
