Biography
Dr. Vishal Munsif is a filmmaker, producer, author, scholar, and media entrepreneur whose work lives at the intersection of cinema, power, technology, crime, finance, and truth.
Before entering the entertainment industry, Vishal built a distinguished academic career in accounting and financial research. His work was cited in connection with the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, giving him a rare real-world understanding of systems, corruption, accountability, and institutional consequence. That investigative foundation now shapes his creative voice as a storyteller.
With a PhD in Accountancy and an MFA in Film & TV Production, Vishal brings an uncommon combination of intellectual depth and cinematic instinct to his work. His projects span documentaries, true crime, social impact films, children’s storytelling, audio books, commercial productions, and global entertainment ventures available across major platforms including Amazon Prime, Apple TV, Amazon, and Audible.
As CEO of TDR Global Media Group / Ten Downing Royalle Media, Vishal leads a Los Angeles-based studio built around the mission of creating content that moves people. TDR blends cinematic craft with artificial intelligence, virtual production, 3D visualization, immersive collaboration, and next-generation production technology. Through platforms such as MovieColab, ScriptViz, Table Read, Artist Hub, and Sync Space, the company is helping re imagine how stories are written, developed, visualized, produced, and experienced.
Vishal is known for work including Unbearable, The Global Heatwave Crisis, India’s Serial Killer: Cyanide Mohan, Unemployable, Saptapadi, Fighter, and other projects across documentary, narrative, educational, and socially relevant storytelling. His creative world is driven by stories of ambition, survival, crime, climate, power, and consequence - stories that expose what lies beneath the surface.
Through his work in the United States and India, Vishal continues to build bridges between Hollywood, Bollywood, technology, education, and global storytelling. His mission is not simply to entertain, but to create work that provokes, investigates, inspires, and stays with audiences long after the final frame.
