Arangkannal Raj – Award-Winning Filmmaker | Media Trainer | Social Impact Strategist | 20+ Years in Broadcast & Creative Industries
With over two decades of experience in film production, broadcasting, and media innovation, I am a passionate storyteller, educator, and entrepreneur. I specialize in developing impactful visual content, training aspiring talents, and leading community-driven projects across Southeast Asia.
I am the founder and creative force behind Blueye Productions, an international award-winning film and event company.

I’ve conducted national-level bootcamps, school training camps, and career guidance sessions to nurture Malaysia’s next generation of creatives and changemakers.
