Master’s In Filmmaking In India: Everything You Need To Know!

Want to make a career in film and media? What better way to do it than study a filmmaking course. As one of the top international school, AISFM offers its students a Master’s in Filmmaking in India. While studying at AISFM students learn important filmmaking skills and practice them in a professional working environment. They start with the basics of film and media like storytelling, photography, video, and audio literacy. 

However, with all that said, just learning a course is not enough. There are some critical skills a filmmaker needs to have in order to produce some excellent work, such as:

1. He/she should have a good eye for detail. Shots, frames, and locations these matter in making an impact on the audience. Hence, the filmmaker must get them right. 
2. He/she must have good communication skills. Filmmaking is a creative process; your team needs to understand what you hope to portray through your film. 
3. He/she needs to be a quick decision maker and problem solver. Shoots are long and tedious which makes it vulnerable to make mistakes. The filmmaker should always have back up plans or skills that help with quick problem solving. 
4. Most importantly, a filmmaker should evolve with changing times. This will show through the kind of movies he/she makes. 
5. Should have a good intuition. Before they start shooting the filmmaker should know how the various elements will play out. What sets to use, what locations for which scenes, how will it all piece together. 
6. Should be clear in his ideas. Nobody likes a confused director who changes scenes a hundred times. Hence, a filmmaker needs to be extremely clear about everything.

These skills are important to become an excellent filmmaker and at AISFM students get a chance to learn these skills first-hand. Furthermore, they also get to learn how to advertise and market their films through the Master’s program in Advertising and Digital Marketing. To advertise right you need to know what the audience likes, why do they buy what they buy, current trends. Through some old classical methods such as psychology and philosophy students at AISFM are taught to think strategically, understand the public, plan and execute campaigns in a manner that appeals to the public and gains necessary traction. This is possible on campus as it is placed on a 22-acre film studio enabling students to write, plan, cast, shoot and edit their own projects.
