Course
Method:
This course aims to provide an integrated overview of film and
television with emphasis on direction and production. Students will
receive a working knowledge of scheduling and budgeting as well. Value
additions will be in terms of appreciation of this medium through film
screenings, workshops, field trips and guest lecturers.
While the emphasis will be on the art and craft of audio-visual production
(scripting, cinematography, editing, sound and special effects) the
course will also attempt to provide students with an opportunity to look
at a range of classical and contemporary cinema in order to read and
understand films in the changing social milieu of the new digital age.
Practical hands-on training in the polytechnic style of teaching
forms the core of the learning process. Here the student will have to
learn by making mistakes. Doing and re-doing is the official mantra till
students attain a level of confidence to handle the work independently.
Their abilities will be channeled and their skills sharpened and honed
through multiple approaches, constant guidance and supervision by
qualified instructors - practising professionals in their areas of
expertise.
