Transform Your Film Making Career with FACE

The filmmaking course at FACE Academy offers an immersive journey through the four pillars of cinema— Scriptwriting, Cinematography, Editing, and Direction—taught in an integrated and practical manner. Students begin by crafting compelling scripts, learning the nuances of
storytelling, character development, and dialogue creation. These scripts come to life through cinematography, where students master camera techniques, lighting, and shot composition to visualize their stories. In the editing phase, they refine their work, applying transitions, pacing, and sound design to enhance the narrative. Finally, in direction, students bring it all together, leading the creative process and coordinating with actors and crew to shape the final product. This cohesive learning experience culminates in a final project, where students apply all their
skills on the professional sets of SJ Studios. Here, they experience real-world filmmaking, collaborating across departments and producing a polished film that showcases their creative and technical mastery.

    The academy campus and the studio are just wow! I must say, this was my second home throughout my film making course. I have enjoyed every moment of learning at the Institute. The practical assignments and the carefully designed curriculum brought out the best in most of us. I would like to thank all my faculties and management staff for helping and giving us a hand on experience in the classrooms and on professional sets as well, which gave us a lot of industry exposure.
