ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS

1. Statement of Purpose (600 words. Can be written in English or Hindi)

   SACAC.
2. Film Idea (to be based in Delhi/ NCR) (400-500 words. Can be written in English or Hindi)
   A student enters the course with an idea around a film that s/he wishes to make, and will be nurtured towards realizing this. However, the proposal is likely to undergo several transformations as the participant goes through a rigorous mentoring and learning process. Therefore, the submissions will not be considered firmed up ideas but rather as serious, fleshed out intentions.
   This submission should have:
   • Logline: A brief idea about the film, in two or three lines.
   • Statement of Intent (300-400 words): State clearly your reasons for wanting to make this film.
   • Status of the film idea: In the event that the film idea has been worked upon to some extent, please state if any of the following have already reached some stage:
     • Research and reconnaissance
     • Footage shot
     • Edited footage if any

   The above does not imply that the development of these stages puts the candidate at an advantage, but is a means to assess the proposed project.
