Mission

To offer high quality professional study programs in the theory & practice of film-making.

To focus on specialized areas of film-making that develop very proficient technicians who are creative artists as well.

Mindscreen Film Institute and its alumni make a professional impact and significant contribution to the media and entertainment industry. 

Philosophy
We believe that a good film-maker, irrespective of his/her role must appreciate all aspects of the process.

From the choices a cinematographer confronts, understanding the director & his script, how sound and music transform a scene to assembling of images in the editing room. And the best way to learn them is to have a real ‘touch-feel-do’ experience.

Mindscreen Film Institute is all about hands-on learning. Our learning environment is designed to move one beyond their current level, expand the vision, enhance technical skills and unleash the potential to IMAGINE, THINK & CREATE in a new way
