I have completed my graduation in arts and want to become a film director. What should I do now?

Hi Shravan, You can look at the following options to study in the field you desire: 1. New York Film Academy. 2. Vancouver Film School. 3. FTII - Pune. 4. Institute of Creative Arts.

Start your film making journey by joining a small part time course that has a duration of about 3 months and doesn't cost a bomb. What will happen is, instead of signing up a for a 3 or 2 year course in any institute where you will end up wasting your money as well as time, with a short term course you will get the clarity if film making suits you, and which part of film making attracts you the most [writing, directing, cinematography, editing, acting, etc]. You will even end up spending time with a few others who share your passion for cinema and you can start making short films together, Start small but aim big. Do as many short films as you can to polish your art and craft skills. After the short term course you can decide if you want to join an institute or not but i would recommend you use that money to buy a camera [canon 600d for around Rs. 30,000] is always a better option than spending it on an institute for creative flied such as direction. With a camera always at hand you can shoot whatever you want, you can shoot your mom making a roti but do it in a style that no one has seen before. Trail and error will polish your skills. If other technical flied such as cinematography or editing interests you then by all means you must join an institute as they will have all the technical equipment to help you polish your skills. Remember: Industry politics do not effect content driven film makers.
