A screen presentation is constituted by continuously changing series of images supported by sound for narrating a story or conveying a message, in a coherent manner. The prime purpose of a screen presentation is to capture and hold audience attention. The foundation of the art of screen presentation is editing. Film or video editing is much more than joining together of images and sound recorded on photographic film or magnetic / optical medium. It is the job of the editor to weave the recorded material which is jumble of odd shots, bits of sound and computer generated graphics into a meaningful and interesting screen presentation. A film or video editor has to strive to impart a visual variety to the screen presentation by skilful shot selection, arrangement and timing supported by appropriate sound. He has to recreate rather than reproduce the recorded event to achieve a cumulative effect often greater than all actions in the individual scenes put together. Only a good editing can bring life to a screen presentation.
Spoken words, music and effects sound support the visuals both recorded and computer generated - in a screen presentation. A wide variety of sounds are therefore, required to be recorded for laying the sound track of a movie or television programme. Creative use of the microphone is a specialized work.
Television graphics may include anything from captions over pictures to the most elaborate art work. The graphics are in the form of graphs, charts, diagrams, maps and a variety of shapes and forms. Computer graphics systems are used to prepare logos, illustrate numerical concepts, financial trends, result of polls, weather reports, cartoon films, video games and so on. The computer hardware and software together make a magnificent tool for the graphic artists with a quick mind and good imagination. Computer Graphics equipment is also capable of producing three dimensional and virtually any desired animation effect. Graphic art systems are only means to the end in the hands of creative artists.
Graduates of a recognized Indian or foreign university willing to use the personal computer and a wide variety of softwares to generate graphics and animation products, edit recorded visuals and sound and are interested in learning the creative use of the microphone with a view to working as a graphics designer or an animator or a video editor or a sound recordist in the film and television industries are welcome to enroll in this one year course.
