Faculties The guiding lights

Film as a mass-entertainment industry has as its core creative impulse, cine-technological expertise, commercial acumen, culture sensitivity, and social responsibility. Filmmaking is, thus, a unique industrial production of entertainment with people as focal point and end beneficiaries. Our Institute recognizes that filmmaking is essentially a people-process and has designed this Course as a harmonious blend of the above-said core aspects of cinema.

The Course, accordingly, traverses simultaneously along three trajectories: (1) Continuous surveillance of social-political environment with intermittent cultural immersion; (2) Guided journey into the literaryuniverse particularly of Thamizh and extensive exposure to the best of world cinema; and (3) Rigorous and innovative training in the art and craft of cinema.
