Production Designer Sehar Kidwai joins Vision!

Sehar began her career in the Indian Film Industry in 2014, after studying Architecture in Mumbai. Her first film as an Assistant Art Director, ‘Masaan’ won the Un Certain Regarde Award at Cannes. In India she worked as Art Director and Production Designer across commercials and films for clients such as Pantene, Olay and Netflix. 

In 2020, Sehar moved to the Uk to pursue an MA in Production Design at National Film and Television school. She won the postgraduate Production Design award at the Royal Television Society (RTS) Student Television Awards in 2023 for the film ‘Whiteboy’.  

Since then, she has worked as Assistant Art Director on Slow Horses Season 3, as Production Designer on the BAFTA nominated short film ‘Stomach Bug’, on Commercials for clients like Arsenal and Sail GP, as well as Music Videos and Shorts backed by BBC, Film 4, BFI and Netflix.  

Sehar recently worked as Production Designer on Ashnikko’s music video for ‘Trinkets’. Wild, wacky, maximalist and kitsch; the film explores the idea of romantic partners as accessories or ‘trinkets’ to own, metaphorized by a sea of doll body parts, googly eyes and teddies stuffed in to jars.

We are excited to see what comes next for Sehar!  Have a look here to explore her work.
