# Ravi Urabinavar on Tal

## Headline

Multi\-disciplinary practitioner, 7\+ years across program coordination, community media, and Kannada–English language work\. Storytelling, field ops, and bilingual communication — purpose\-driven\.

## About

I'm a multi\-disciplinary practitioner based in Bengaluru, working across program coordination, community media, and Kannada–English language work\. Over 7\+ years, I've coordinated residential camps and field programs, facilitated media workshops at universities and community settings, and led documentation for theatre and film projects\. On the creative side, I've written and co\-produced films screened nationally, contributed to feature film development, and authored published fiction\. My translation and transcription work spans academic research, policy documents, folk forms, and NGO projects , always with attention to cultural nuance and linguistic precision\. My practice moves between the field and the desk, between community and craft\. Whether coordinating a residency, writing a screenplay, or translating a research report, I bring the same rigors and care to the work\.
