Hear it from industry legends

 
Rohil’s writing stands out for its simultaneous combination of two seemingly unconnected qualities: 1) wry humor and biting political satire; and 2) a genuine sensitivity for vulnerable people who may feel on the margins of society. This juxtaposition enables him to establish unforgettable settings and scenes ripe with human impact.

Mr. Aniruth was a stand-out during my tenure at HuffPost for his ability to deliver such goods quickly, with little guidance, and with a unique perspective resulting from his culturally diverse background. These are talents that cannot be taught, and are, frankly, dream qualities to find in any collaborator. To say Rohil was an asset to our team would be an understatement. He was essential both in terms of the quality of work produced and being an inspiring role model for other creators.
— LONNIE NADLER, Inflexion Games (Nightingale), Ubisoft, Marvel Comics (Guardians of the Galaxy)
Rohil’s comedic voice is instantly recognizable, and his work stands-out with it’s irreplaceable, and undeniably authentic writing — unique to his culturally diverse upbringing, and fearless perspective. Throughout his young career, Rohil has shown a passion and desire for creating spaces and platforms in which diverse, often marginalized voices can share their stories. Dismantling harmful stereotypes, and equal representation in entertainment is core to Rohil’s body of work.

I’ve taught at Parsons since 1986 and rarely have I come across an individual with such a facility for dynamically visualizing their story ideas. From the beginning Rohil’s work evinced a distinctive style. His work was often inspired by classic game design and was smart, funny and visually inventive. To boot he produced more than anyone in that class. He was exceptionally prolific. Rohil’s independent films make use of discontinuous editing techniques and blends of animation, music, visual audio effects to comment on the internal emotional state of his characters. These techniques are integral to the narrative. Rohil’s work taps into a long tradition of experimental film making, going back to the silent era, that seeks to expand the viewer’s experience of film narrative through the use of a kaleidoscopic mix of visual and audio strategies.
