Testimonials

Working with Estiak Prottoy and the team at Chitrokarkhana was a truly inspiring experience. Estiak served as the Director of Photography for a segment of my feature documentary “A FREEDOM FIGHTER FOREVER” and his visual sensitivity, empathy, and meticulous attention to detail brought the story to life in a profoundly moving way. He possesses a rare ability to grasp the emotional essence of a subject and express it masterfully through his lens. His calm professionalism, creative intuition, and collaborative spirit made the entire process both seamless and memorable. I’m deeply grateful for his artistry and look forward to the opportunity to work together again.

I and my colleague have worked with Estiak Prottoy several times on film projects in Bangladesh over the last three years. In that time, we have found his film work and direction to have been outstanding both from a creative point of view and the quality of his film work. His organisational skills and his ability to get on with people makes the process of working with him a pleasure and results in the delivery of superior work, always on schedule. I have no hesitation in recommending Estiak as an outstanding film maker and as a person of good character.

Working with Chitrokarkhana on the Gender Responsive Resilience and Intersectionality in Policy and Practice (GRRIPP) South Asia documentary series was an inspiring and rewarding experience. From the concept development stage to post-production, their team brought exceptional creativity, technical precision, and emotional depth to every step of the process. Their ability to translate complex themes into thoughtful, visually powerful, and emotionally resonant stories was truly impressive. We deeply value their professionalism, artistic vision, and unwavering commitment to excellence.

Over the past three years and on four separate occasions I have worked with Estiak Prottoy in his roles as a production manager and as a film director. His ability to organise and resolve issues either it matters of logistics or bureaucratic matters and to bring projects in on schedule are frankly extraordinary. They make working in challenging areas and with constantly changing briefs more often than not worry free. As a film director I and indeed all of the crew found Estiak easy and a pleasure to work with and his creativity quite expectational. The highest praise I give, is that I cannot wait to work with him again.

Prottoy has been our go-to photographer for both professional and personal events over the years. From numerous UWE Conferences to alumni gatherings and fairs, he has consistently delivered work of the highest standard with remarkable professionalism and vision. He also did a photoshoot of my firstborn son when he was just six months old. When I received the final images, I realized he hadn’t just taken pictures, he had captured memories that we will cherish for a lifetime. His photos are a true expression of creativity and design, carrying a deep sense of artistry that sets him apart from the rest and makes him one of the finest at what he does. I am truly grateful for the beautiful memories he created for us and I wish him all the success and recognition he deserves.
