My Role
The Cinephile Association was founded by Sooraj Rajmohan — a Creative Producer and fellow movie enthusiast — and I've been part of the club since day one, for 1.5 years since its opening. I stepped up as President in my last term and led both screenings end-to-end — event ideation, planning, coordination, budgeting, hospitality, and execution. I also took over the club's Instagram, building anticipation with content in the run-up to each event.
Now Showing
Two nights, two themes, one very full room.

Christmas Movie Night · December 2024
Home Alone
Warm lights, hot chocolate, and a comfort classic. Closed out the term with the club's biggest energy of the year.
Encore · Summer Screening
Deadpool — Part I
Before I took over as President, I helped run the club's earlier summer screening — a packed evening of Deadpool with free snacks and pops. Room 30, 6:00 PM, and a room full of laughs.

The Approach
Small budget, big feeling.
Every dollar had to work double duty. I built each night around a strong theme, a comfort-food snack table, and a post-film trivia quiz with a real prize — so people stayed for the whole experience, not just the movie.
Themed Curation
Chose films that matched the season — A Quiet Place for Halloween, Home Alone for Christmas — so the vibe carried the room.
Hospitality
Seasonal snacks, hot drinks, and a welcoming setup that made the space feel less like a classroom and more like a screening.
Social Build-Up
Took over the club's Instagram, teased each screening with themed content, and drove pre-event RSVPs.
Post-Event Quiz
A movie trivia round after the credits. Winner walked away with a $50 gift card — 100% of the room played.
