Film Career

October 11, 2007

Film is probably the broadest and most varied creative opportunity in mass media. Films, a blend of creativity and technicality are an important media, not only for entertainment and information, but also for communication. Films, the most international medium, have developed into a universal art form that transcends cultural differences. Film making include feature films, documentaries, newsreels, Promotional films, TV commercials, music Videos etc. The craft of filmmaking is a teamwork which needs close coordination of various skilled individuals. It involves acting, directing, producing, script writing, cinematography, sound recording, visual mixing, editing and so on. A film maker like the captain of a ship has to look at all these aspects of film making. He has to start at the very bottom and work his way up. i.e. beginning with raising capital for the film to its distribution, screening as well as all the stages of its crafting. The field of film making which is highly competitive is one that has a lot of scope for employment opportunities especially, India which releases a large number of films every year. If one has artistic and technical skills and at the same time ability to express ideas, this is the right field for you. Even for acting and directing, which are basically creative fields that require inherent talent; training helps to hone the skills. In areas like cinematography, sound engineering and editing, professional training is essential. There are several universities institutions that offer training in these areas. The pioneering institute in this line is the Film and Television Institute of India (FTII), Pune.There is a shortage of technical people in Film Industry. Therefore such courses in Film education can be very beneficial for those who are interested in making their careers in Film. For some courses there is no requirement of acting skills. Some parents are very introvert for a Film Career for their children as they think that it is a non-reliable source of income. But nowadays so many institutes have come forward to provide the courses and degrees for Film Education and they also provide job assisstance after the completion of course or degree. Hence you can surely go ahead for a bright and successful Film Career.  

Eligibilty Criteria  Educational Qualification: For technical courses basic eligibility is 10+2. For other courses it is graduation. There will be aptitude tests and interviews to assess the candidates talents. Duration of courses depends on the course one opts for and the institution chosen. There are Diploma, Post Diploma and even Certificate courses in each area of specialisation. Specialisation areas include  production, direction, editing, cinematography, film processing, animation, acting, sound engineering, make up, photography and so on. Personal Attributes: Artistic flair, ability to work cooperatively, sense of responsibility, ability to work under pressure, great physical stamina, strong visual sense, good communication skills and for production and direction; leadership qualities, ability to bring out talent in others, creative instincts as well as managerial and administrative abilities are essential.

Careers in films can be those related to the actual production of the film and those related to the film field such as a Film critic, Film archivist, Film curator, Film distributor etc.
Production: Production involves too many responsibilities, sheer hardwork and anxiety after the release whether the hard work put in was worth it. Usually the production team is the first to arrive on the sets and the last to leave.
Producer: He is the over-all in charge of a film. Producer is responsible right from raising finance up to marketing the film. He is the decision making authority in all matters, plans and manages the technical and artistic resources. It is he who decides the story, obtain legal permission, hires the director, actors, decides the crew and the location etc. Production Manager and Production Assistants help the Producer in his job. The producer’s role is sometimes combined with that of directing.
Post graduates in Mass Communication or diploma holders from the Film and Television Institutes can enter as professionals. But it is not a must. Personally he should have good communication skills, patience and stamina. He should also have a through knowledge and experience in the film industry and entrepreneurial ability to succeed.
Production Manager: The production manager shoulders the delegated responsibility for the overall organisation of the film. He is responsible for the technical pre-planning of productions and for coordinating the crew, cast and scenery within a prescribed budget.
Production Assistant: He acts as the coordinator while the producer or director is doing his artistic thing. It is the production assistant who actually make everything happen as planned. He handles all the administrative work, such as booking hotels and flights for the crew, arranging shooting schedules etc. and he is also responsible for keeping records of film sequences, scripts, call sheets and daily reports.
Direction
Director: He is responsible for the management of all the creative aspects that go into the making of a film. These are the people who make the unreal real–who turn the pages of a script into reality on the screen. The director is in complete charge of the studio or location floor and controls the film artistically. He decides the camera angle and directs the work of the cast and crew, costumes, choreography and music, conduct rehearsals etc.
Assistant director: They ensure all the timely arrangement of things that are required for the shoot. There can be one or more assistant directors, depending upon the film budget. 
Editing, Acting & Animation
Editor: The work of an editor requires great skill, it is he who puts the film in correct sequential order. He views processed film and video with production personnel to analyse, evaluate and select scenes and to determine which scenes need to be improved or re-shot. He synchronizes the sound track and adds special effects wherever necessary. Degree in film direction and editing or professional experience is required.
Screenplay writer: Screen play writer rewrites the original story, on which the film is based, in a format suitable for the screen. A graduate or postgraduate degree in literature with proficiency in creative writing can become a screen play writer. 
Actor: An actor should have an ability to emote well and become the character he represents in the film. They are the ones who come in direct contact with the masses and the most appreciated. Actors need a great deal of patience and commitment because most productions require long rehearsal schedules and retakes. Acting is a highly competitive profession and lot of talent, mettle as well as luck is needed to make it to the top and create a place for themselves in the field. A screen presence and a good physical appearance are additional attributes to be successful in the field. Even though formal training is not a necessity, a graduate/post graduate degree in acting will help to sharpen skills and give exposure. 
Animator: Animation films are created by filming sequences of drawings or computer graphics and processing them at high speed so that they appear to be moving. Animation graphics are used in action films to stimulate real events. 
Animators use their drawing skills to create moving images and effects for feature films, TV commercials, and short features. Drawing skills are crucial for all animators, and technical and computer training are integrated into the professional training. Personally, they must be artistically inclined, imaginative, skilful and practical, able to generate new ideas and put those ideas into sketches. One can work as an animator for Cartoons, feature-length movies, TV commer cials or motion graphics, multimedia or as a game designer. Proficiency in graphic software’s or a graduate or postgraduate degree in Fine arts, Applies Arts, Graphic Design, Animation Design, Visual Communication Design etc is helpful in getting into this field. The basic qualification for training in this field is 10+2/ equivalent.
Light and Sound
Cinematographer: He is responsible for composing each scene to be shot, decides lighting and camera angles as per directors requirement. He leads the camera/lighting team and is involved in the planning and execution of a shoot from the pre-production stage. Job requires high technical knowledge and experience in the field. In big units lighting technician may work out the lighting plan for each shot. 
Cameraman:  The cameraman handles the camera and the camera assistants collaborate with him. The Cameraman operates the camera according to the instructions of the Cinematographer. Good technical ability and knowledge of cameras and lenses is essential.
Lighting Technician/Operator: Lighting is used to change the mood of a scene or to indicate practical aspects such as day or night. Lighting technician arranges all the lighting effects. They determine light needed during each shot. 
Soundmen: Responsible for all sounds or effects that accompany visual images (Sound Mixing). The work includes recording, dubbing and mixing of music, dialogues and other sound effects. The Sound Mixer or Sound Engineer puts together the various elements of the sound track and edits it to give it a final shape. The Sound Recordist works under the Sound Mixer and ensures proper recording. Degree or diploma in Audiography or Electronics is required. For admission to these courses a Science background at plus two level is preferred. 
Film Related Careers

Only persons having good knowledge about the particular subject/art can authoritatively write about the subject. He has to interview filmmakers and actors, covers local developments in the film business, and attend film festivals from time to time. Reading significant histories and biographies, understanding critical theory of film, and becoming familiar with the history of film arts are keys to success as a critic.

IIT Bangalore

September 25, 2007

Introduction
Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore (founded in 1909) is the oldest and the most reputed centre of post-graduate education and research in science and engineering in the country. Over the years, the Institute has gained international recognition for the quality of its teaching and its R&D achievements. The Centre for Scientific and Industrial Consultancy and Society for Innovation and Development constitute the Institute’s interface with industry, and direct the technical expertise and entrepreneurial skills of the Institute’s faculty members towards channels useful for the society and industry. The Institute consultancy strives to help the country achieve her scientific, academic and technological goals, and is keenly aware of its obligation to maintain the high academic standards it has traditionally adhered to.

Department OF Management Studies
The Department of Management Studies was established at the Institute in 1948 as the Section of Economics and Social Sciences. That makes it the earliest institutional attempt at imparting formal training in the principles and practices of scientific management to young men and women whose services would be required by then fast-expanding industrial sector of the newly independent nation. Flourishing in the intellectual milieu of the Indian Institute of Science, it was but natural for the Department to develop an affinity for a style of learning that combined the attractions of instruction with those of independent exploration of various realms of knowledge. Thus the Department soon acquired a reputation for high-calibre research in areas such as Economics, Marketing, and Energy and Technology Management. The Language Group of the Department aims at catering to the language requirements of the Institute staff and students. Besides teaching, translation and interpretation, this section developed research interest in communication-oriented language teaching, socio-linguistic issues in language use, language for specific purpose, and language choice in scientific communication. Issues in cross-cultural communication are explored through comparative studies of communication patterns in different countries/ societies (Germany and India) and scientific and business communication in EC countries. Currently there are 40 research students working for M.Sc (Engg.) and PhD degrees in frontier areas of management.

Academic Programmes
Academic programmes at the Department of Management Studies include:   Two-year, full-time M.B.A. open only to engineering graduates.   M.Sc.(Engg.) and Ph.D. programs for full-time, QIP, and external registration       candidates.

Research And Consultancy
The members of the Department Faculty conduct research in Human Resource Management, Technology Management, Marketing, Energy Management, Transportation, Operations Research, Operations Management, Finance, Supply Chain Management, Decision Support Systems, Industrial Economics, Cross Cultural Communications, and German Language and Didactics. The Department undertakes consultancy projects and case development in business planning, marketing strategy, reengineering, human resource development, technology management, e-commerce, and decision support systems.

Management Development Programmes
The Department conducts in-company as well as on-campus Management Development Programmes. Capacity-building for Competitive Advantage, Leadership at the Work Place, Trade Union Leadership Development, and Strategic Management of Technology are examples of such courses offered recently.

Seminars And Conferences
The Department organizes seminars by experts every Friday. These seminars give an opportunity to the students to listen and interact with the leaders in industry and academics.

The Department also conducts an annual event titled Consortium of Students of Management Research (COSMAR). This provides a forum for research in management and allied disciplines from leading institutions in the country to interact with our research students, industry professionals, and leading academics.

Facilities
Institute offers an excellent academic and residential infrastructure. It has JRD Library with more than 400,000 volumes, Digital Library with CD-ROM facilities, National Centre for Science Information, electronic access to more than 2,500 Journals, and offers round the clock access to high power computers that support database systems, multimedia graphics and visualization applications, and Web services. A campus-wide FDDI network hook-up from Department also exists.

Department of Management Studies provides a high-speed LAN with dedicated applications server, file server, mail server and web server with the state-of-the-art operating systems and software packages including SPSS, Systat, Witness 2003, Vensim, Sigma Plot, MATLAB, LINGO and a host of productivity tools from Microsoft MBA Programme
The MBA programme is a two-year full time postgraduate course. The major objective of the program is to enable graduate engineers to grow into competent, responsible and creative managers for technology-intensive global business.

Technology- intensive business organizations produce and market high technology products and/or services globally and integrate all their business functions using information technology tools. These organizations require leaders who understand the administrative and technological dimensions of modern business. Future managers should be able to foresee the forces shaping the global business environment, assess threats and opportunities inherent in that environment, and chart a course of “responsible progress” for their organization. The managers of the new millennium should be able to employ sophisticated quantitative tools in analyzing, understanding, and directing business processes. At the same time, they should nurture and value their innate intuitive skills, imagination, ability to empathize, and capacity to combine wisdom with the results of individual observation and reflection. Our MBA programme is designed and implemented with this vision. Programme Structure
The M.B.A programme comprises a total of 64 credits distributed as follows:
Hard Core Courses: 30 credits; Soft Core Courses: 9 credits; Electives: 15 credits; Projects: 10 credits. Courses that are laboratory-based or activity-oriented are offered on a 2:1 basis, that is, two lectures per week and one three-hour laboratory or activity per week.
The programme aims at building the following competencies

  • Basic Competence: Quantitative Methods; Information Technology; Project Management; Personal Development and Business Communication
  • Understanding the Business Environment: Macro Economics; Indian and International Business Environment; Legal and Patenting Aspects
  • Functional Areas: Marketing; Finance; Operations Management; Human Resource Management.
  • Specialization: Electives and Project Work.
  • Workspace skills: These are to be gained through industrial attachment during summer

 Indian Institute of Technology Delhi is one of the six Institutes of Technology created as centres of excellence for higher training, research and development in science, engineering and technology in India, the others being at Kanpur, Kharagpur, Madras Bombay and Guwahati. Established as College of Engineering in 1961, the Institute was later declared an Institution of National Importance under the “Institutes of Technology (Amendment) Act, 1963″ and was renamed “Indian Institute of Technology Delhi”. It was then accorded the status of a deemed university with powers to decide its own academic policy, to conduct its own examinations, and to award its own degrees. HRH Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh, laid the foundation stone of the Institute on January 27, 1959. The Institute was inaugurated by Prof.Humayun Kabir, the then Union Minister for Scientific Research and Cultural Affairs on August 21, 1961. The Institute buildings were formally opened by Dr.Zakir Hussain, the then President of India, on March 2, 1968.

Location
IIT Delhi is situated at Hauz Khas in South Delhi, which is a landmark place in the colourful and chequered history of Delhi. Bounded by the Sri Aurobindo Marg on the east, the Jawaharlal Nehru University Complex on the west, the National Council of Educational Research and Training on the south, and the New Ring Road on the north, the Institute campus is flanked by Qutub Minar and the Hauz Khas monuments. Well connected to the major city centres by open and wide roads, the Institute campus is about 19 Km. away from the Delhi Main Railway Station, 14 Km. from the New Delhi Railway Station, 21 Km. from the Inter-State Bus Terminal and 10 Km. from Delhi Airport.

Campus
The campus of the Institute extends to an area of 320 acres. With many topographical features, imaginatively laid out with picturesque landscape, numerous buildings of various nature and stature, and clean and wide roads, the campus presents a spectacle of harmony in architecture and natural beauty. The campus area has been divided into four functional zones : (i) Residential zone for students; (ii) Residential zone for the faculty and other supporting staff; (iii) Academic zone for academic buildings and workshops; and (iv) Cultural-cum-social and recreational zone for students. The site being longitudinal in shape, the last two zones have been located mid-way between the two residential zones in order to reduce walking distance. See IIT Campus Map
The main academic building accommodates various teaching and research activities. Though each department is a separate entity with a courtyard around, all the departments constitute an integrated complex. Heavy engineering laboratories are placed on the ground floor, light laboratories on the first floor while the tutorial rooms, classrooms and project rooms are located on the second floor. Separate offices have been provided to every member of the teaching staff next to his laboratory. Large lecture theatres with modern amenities and equipment for sound and projection are located in the courtyards between departments for common use. The campus also offers amenities like staff club, hospital, shopping centre, bank, post office, telecom centre, community centre, stadium, playing fields, etc.
The Students Activities Centre provides all facilities for students’ extra-curricular and physical development. The central double-storeyed recreation block with a swimming pool and a gymnasium hall offers amenities such as squash courts, hobbies workshops, seminar rooms, music rooms and other multipurpose rooms for reading and indoor games. The amphitheatre constructed in modern style is an added amenity to the centre.

Administration
I.I.T.Delhi is an autonomous statutory organisation functioning within the “Institutes of Technology Act” as amended by “The Institutes of Technology (Amendent) Act, 1963″. The six Indian Institutes of Technology (others being at Bombay, Kanpur, Kharagpur, Madras and Guwahati) are administered centrally by the IIT Council, an apex body established by the Government of India to co-ordinate activities of these Institutes. The Minister for Human Resource Development of the Government of India is the Chairman of the Council. Each Institute of Technology has a Board of Governors responsible for its overall administration and control. Shri Vijay R.Kirloskar is the Chairman of the Board of Governors of this Institute. The Senate decides the academic policy of the Institute, and approves curriculum, courses and examination results. It appoints committees to look into specific academic matters arising from time to time. The teaching, training and research activities of various departments at the Institute are constantly under review to improve both facilities and standard. The Director of the Institute is the Chairman of the Senate. Financial advice to the Institute is rendered by the Finance Committee. Similarly, there is a Buildings & Works Committee to advise on matters relating to buildings and works activity. These committees are appointed by the Board of Governors. In addition, there are a number of other committees like the Board of Undergraduate Studies, Board of Postgraduate Studies and Research, Board of Educational Research and Planning etc. appointed by the Senate to help the administration in the efficient running of the Institute.
