About Shiva

Shiva Ramanathan has been an engineer, an unemployed dreamer and a software architect. But, what gives him real joy is filmmaking. It's because every story he pursues reveals something wonderful about life that he's seen but never noticed.

Shiva started writing/directing plays and films during his engineering degree in India. His efforts revived theater in the local community after 15 years. He continued his education in Communication in graduate school in Pennsylvania. During this time, he worked with local / international cable providers, non-profit organizations and the university to write, shoot, edit, and direct commercials.

After graduation, Shiva worked as a freelance editor with Cedars Sinai Medical Center and also pursued theater in Golden West community. He toured Southern California as a part of "The Radio Players” theater group. His screenplays and short films have been an IFP/Panasonic Emerging Narrative winner and recognized in more than 60 festivals & competitions including Short Film Corner – Cannes, Nicholl, Austin Film Festival, Cinestory and Project Greenlight 3.
