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.

AAFT (Asian Academy of Film & Television)
We have always believed that a film school should take a holistic and realistic approach in its teaching. By holistic we mean that film school training should not be limited to only classrooms and lectures on theories and techniques. Therefore, at AAFT we have adopted a comprehensive training method with equal importance on the practical training of film making and acting.
Believing that training and skill building are quite essential in the field of visual media, Asian Academy of Film & TV, has been imparting education and training in the art & craft of film making in television presentation since 1993.
The academy was planned as an alternative to formal film schools and has since come a long way making a unique place for itself amongst the best global centers of education of its kind. Growing to be certified as the first ISO 9001:2000 film school in this part of the world in less than a decade since its inception, the Academy was also approved as an international level training center by the 125 year old City & Guilds of the United Kingdom in the year 2002.
Students with varied background, experience and culture are selected for admission to the academy for their talent and enthusiasm. Although students spend most of their time on the projects, the education and training imparted at AAFT is more than just a craft model.
Education and training for various courses are provided by expert media practitioners supplemented by visiting guest lecturers who are leading exponents of their specialized skills in the practical craft of film & television production.
The Academy has also done pioneering work of generating training a world class material in the form of books and video recordings on the various techniques of film and television production both for the benefit of its students and the practicing film and television professionals. The Documentation Center of the academy has produced a number of books on the art & screen presentation.
The academy is affiliated to the International Film & Television Research Center which aims at raising professional standards of films and television presentations. Film and Television personalities from all over the world are often the guest of the Research Center. AAFT is also affiliated to International Film & Television club.
Festivals of Israel, Japanese, Croatian, Norwegian and Russian films have already been organized by the Club in the past. Students of the academy greatly benefit from the activities of both these organizations.
