Are there opportunities for students to work on professional film sets through AAFT industry network?

<p>Hi.</p><p data-start="0" data-end="317">Yes, students at AAFT School of Cinema/AAFT Noida do get opportunities to be involved with professional film‑making environments and industry‑linked practical exposure, though formal placements on major professional film sets may not be guaranteed for all. Here's how the industry connection typically works:</p><h2 data-start="324" data-end="383">1. Practical Industry Exposure through Curriculum</h2><p data-start="384" data-end="805">AAFT's cinema courses emphasize hands‑on practice with real production workflows — students learn through shooting, directing, editing, and working with professional equipment in studios and on shooting floors provided by the institute. This means much of the film set experience happens within an academic/controlled production context that simulates real world film production.&nbsp;</p><h2 data-start="812" data-end="875">2. Industry Workshops, Masterclasses &amp; Guest Sessions</h2><p data-start="876" data-end="1215">Students participate in guest lectures, workshops and masterclasses by industry professionals (actors, directors, cinematographers etc.), which gives them exposure to film professionals and sometimes leads to networking opportunities that can help them find real set opportunities independently.&nbsp;</p><h2 data-start="1222" data-end="1282">3. Collaborations &amp; Skill Development Partnerships</h2><p data-start="1283" data-end="1677">AAFT has formal collaborations with organisations like the National Film Development Corporation (NFDC), aimed at enhancing industry‑related skill development and professional readiness. These partnerships help bridge academic learning with industry expectations, increasing the chances that students can pursue internships or productions externally.&nbsp;</p><h2 data-start="1684" data-end="1741">4. In‑House Live Projects &amp; Student Productions</h2><p data-start="1742" data-end="2030">Students do work on live projects, such as short films, documentaries, and other production assignments that mirror real film set conditions — this helps them build portfolios and gain crew‑level experience before entering actual professional sets.&nbsp;</p><h2 data-start="2037" data-end="2089">5. Placement Support &amp; Industry Networking</h2><p data-start="2090" data-end="2448">AAFT's placement and career support cells (EDGE &amp; CARE) help students find internships and industry roles in film, television, OTT and related media. While this support can lead to opportunities on professional film sets, specific job or set work depends on individual performance, networking, and industry demand.</p>
