Local youth priority, will get employment opportunities
Rajiv Arora said that local youth will be given priority in both training and employment in the institute. Especially the youth of Yamuna Expressway and its surrounding areas will get the first preference, while youth from other parts of Uttar Pradesh will also be benefited. He said that it would be more economical to train and provide employment to local youth than bringing staff from Mumbai, which will create jobs in studios, production and other fields in Film City itself.
Partnership with comprehensive curriculum and production house
The institute will have courses like acting, story writing, script writing, editing, camera operation, lightman, spot boy, VFX, fashion and mass communication. In addition, training and facilities related to film music will also be provided. Workshops, internships and guest lectures will be organized through partnership with the production house, which will give students a chance to learn from industry veterans. There will be a system of organizing the premiere of films in Film City, so that the production house does not have to wander in other cities to launch its films. Along with this, a composite resource center with films, scripts and academic materials will also be set up. This center will serve as an important resource for students and filmmakers.
Film Festival and Student Participation
Film festivals, exhibitions and competitions will be organized at the institute, in which students will get an opportunity to show their talent. These events will not only promote the creativity of the students, but will also provide them networking and exposure in the industry. Facilities like hostels, cafeteria, health centers and entertainment areas will be available for students at the Campus of Film Institute. These facilities will provide students a comfortable and inspiring environment, where they will be able to focus on their studies and creativity. The film institute will not only become the center of employment and training for the youth, but will also make Uttar Pradesh a major hub of the film production and entertainment industry.
