SKILLS IN DEMAND

A career in filmmaking equips you with in-demand skills such as screenwriting, storytelling, casting, direction, shooting, pre-production, sound recording, and editing; and pave a way for a rewarding career in the ever-growing media and entertainment industry.

The pandemic-led shift in media consumption in India and at the global level is also likely to boost career opportunities for creative as well as technically trained professionals in the industry. Digital media consumption, especially OTT, increased during the lockdowns. To cope with the distressing times, people began spending more time exploring content on different OTT platforms. For example, Netflix, YouTube, and Spotify have witnessed a monumental growth of data streaming, amounting to a staggering 140% rise in video streaming apps in India, Australia, Indonesia, Thailand, and South Korea.

Now the resultant habit formation is likely to result in continued surge in OTT consumption as it offers convenience, variety in terms of content and languages, and a hyper-personalized experience. In terms of career in filmmaking, OTT platforms provide more creative freedom to storytellers as they are not obligated to comply with laws or rules governing and regulating the content. So, all that is required is to be well-prepared to make the most of the OTT boom.

In addition, the media and entertainment industry has anyway been facing a lack of skilled professionals. A formal course helps newbies learn film-making in the context of film theories, understand global perspectives and practices, and master the technical aspects of this craft.
