Cinematography

Anurag basu

Director Anurag Basu deserves distinction marks for handling the subject of his films with full conviction. Among the new lot of Indian film directors and script-writers, known for directing films with themes of dark passion and adultery- Anurag Basu is a renowned name.

He wrote and directed films like "Kites", "Life in a Metro", "Gangster" and "Murder" exploring relationships and adversity on reel. When he was in his mid-twenties, he started his career in the television industry, directing "Tara", one of the longest running soaps of the 90s. Later he went ahead to direct more television serials and tried his hand in different genres, ranging from daily soaps to thrillers like "Saturday Suspense" and horror "X-Zone".

Anurag received the Filmfare as well as Star Screen Award for Best Screenplay for his film "Life in a Metro".

Mohana Krishna

A graduate of Film & Television Institute of India in Cinematography, Mohana Krishna is a DOP for film like "Ishqiya".

Mohana Krishna is a visiting faculty at the Institute of Moving Images and takes classes on cinematography for its Advanced Diploma students.

At IMI, we also believe that Film-making is one of the most team intensive industries around. If you can't communicate, cooperate and lead, you're certainly going to struggle in film making where you need everyone around you. Collaboration is crucial to filmmaking, and in keeping with this, students' creative abilities are mobilized and developed by multiple approaches.

A broad spectrum of guest lecturers and speakers from a variety of backgrounds not only provides students the opportunity to round out their education in cinema, it also exposes students to academics and specialists from diverse fields. In addition to a regular interactive session with noted filmmakers, students are offered an environment for in-depth aesthetic development in order to foster their overall intellectual growth by Sociologists, Economist, Human Right Activists, Psychologists, Advertising Professionals, Copyright Lawyers, Management Experts, Theatre Activists, Painters, Writers and Musicians.

Students at IMI

The film assignments at IMI will impact you, one way or other- either it will expose you to the tough challenges of filmmaking process and bog you down, force you to think over your previously held belief on cinema and introspect whether you want to take the efforts or make you delve into the depths of cinema and shape you as a complete filmmaker. Faculty is both inspiring and practical in their approach to Filmmaking. I guess it comes from their years of experience in movie making.
