A film academy should induce comprehensive knowledge of the arts, science and commerce of film making in its students. Confused? Let us explain…
A film maker should
have the creativity and eye for the aesthetics
of life, must know the technical aspects of film
making and have a fair amount of idea about the
entertainment industry. So, it is a complete circle
and it takes a little bit of everything to make
a good film maker and a skilled technician and
a great actor. But there are very few such film
schools in this country that take this holistic
approach towards film education and we are proud
of the fact that Asian Academy of Film and Television
is one of them.
In 1993, when we started out journey, we wanted to be different from the run of the mill acting schools , who love to cling to the film craft of the past century. At that point of time we had already come a long way, as a country and as a film making nation. So, we planned to start a film academy that could match the standards that of the international film schools . We decided to adopt a ‘do while learn' methodology. Of course being within a film city and sharing the same campus with a state of the art film studio complemented our objective. Unlike any other acting schools in the country, we provide our students maximum exposure to real ‘REEL WORLD.' This emphasis on ‘hands on training' has already proved to be the success mantra for our students.

the film festivals to be held at Canada, UK and
