I’ve spent most of my life making things and finding ways to put them in front of a camera. I still get a kick out of it.

I’m Sangeet Prabhaker: filmmaker, prosthetics designer, sculptor and co-founder of From Life Studios. I trained as a modelmaker, and that curiosity about how things are made—and what you can make them do—has taken me through film, television, fashion and music. Along the way, I’ve worked on productions including Dune, Game of Thrones and The Dark Knight Rises, and directly with creatives including Alexander McQueen and Kanye West. It’s been quite an education.

I love the craft. Sculpting a face, figuring out a transformation, getting something frankly improbable to work in front of a camera. But I’m also interested in the conversation before anyone starts making anything. What’s happening in this scene? Why does it matter? What do we want people to feel?

That’s often where I do some of my best work. On films like Matriarch and Hide and Don’t Speak, I’ve helped filmmakers think through how the effects tell the story: where to hold back, where to let something unfold, and which moment deserves everything we can give it. Sometimes the answer is a beautifully detailed prosthetic. Sometimes it’s changing when we see something—or deciding that hearing it happen will be far more unsettling.

Making my own films has given me another way into those questions. My debut short, Dinghy, brings together horror, anger and some very personal thoughts about racism, belonging and power. I have more stories in development, and a growing appetite to tell them.

I’m London-born, with an Indian father and a Spanish mother. My experience of moving through this industry as a brown man has shaped both my work and my willingness to speak up. I care about who gets opportunities, whose expertise is recognised, and whether the people we put on screen are properly understood and looked after. That runs through my work with prosthetics for darker skin tones, my teaching and anti-racism advocacy, and my involvement in men’s work and mental health.

In 2023, Ben Perry and I founded the company now called From Life Studios. It’s given us room to bring together talented people, develop ideas and take on work as a team. Receiving a Reel Impact Award has been an important part of that journey, and in 2026 I also became a BAFTA member.

Studio Sangeet is my personal corner of all this. There’s work here from across my career, things I’m proud of, and ideas I’m developing. Have a look around.
