It is a really useful place to become a filmmaker.

Placements: Some students are studying in this course, and they get placed in television channels and features films as an assistant technician or main technician according to their wish. Salary packages offered to students depend on the job and designation chosen by them.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure and facilities offered here are very good. Classes are taught more practically with the latest high-end equipment. Theatres are available with well-equipped sound systems to screen the projects and movies done by our students. The library is constantly updated with books, which provides us with knowledge about the latest techniques used in film-making.

Faculty: Lecturers employed here are well-knowledgeable. Their way of teaching is more practical, which makes us understand the concepts very well. The syllabus has the latest technologies which are used in the industry, which in turn makes students industry-ready.

Other: I have chosen this course because my ambition was to become a cinematographer. The best thing about our course is that high-end equipment (cameras and lights) provided for practical classes.
