Chinmaya trained as an engineer and as an artist: a B.Tech in Computer Science, then an M.Sc. in Multimedia. Over 10 years in the industry he has worked across 3D animation, UI/UX, creative technology and AI, the same mix of skills Hephy is built on.
He leads Hephy on two fronts: a creative services studio that helps brands build stronger visual identities and digital experiences, and an EdTech platform that helps students and creators develop industry-ready skills in design, technology and AI.

Taste beats tools.
Anyone can press generate. The job is knowing which result is worth keeping, and why.
AI is crew, not author.
It explores, drafts and speeds things up. People decide what ships.
YES!

If a still from the film wouldn't work as a poster, we're not done yet.
Build what didn't exist yesterday.
We'd rather make one new thing than a hundred copies of something familiar.
