Course Details

Acting and Presentation

Course Description

It is the actor who brings the screen to life. The audience is drawn by the actors on the screen and expect them to give believable and moving performance. The students of this course are trained in the skills for verbal and non-verbal communication. The training lays stress on developing the individual's sensibility as a person, sensitising his imagination, creating a keen sense of observation, refining his critical appreciation and on his development as an individual unique in his artistic potential. The students of Acting & Presentation are helped to learn to observe, absorb, and imaginatively create and project a character. Through improvisation and scene study they are trained to develop sense of truthful behaviour in imaginary circumstances. The students are also trained to develop a sense of rhythm in the movement and sense of music in the speech through lessons in music and dance. Practical exercises aimed at creating awareness of the body as an instrument of the actor, form integral part of the training. Besides the regular training in acting and presentation, students of Acting & Presentation are required to participate in the current affairs and fictional television programmes produced during the session following the standard industry norms under the watchful eyes of the faculty. Each student gets an opportunity to participate in about ten to fifteen productions during the training session. A video copy of the production is provided to them which may be used a show-reel.
