Colleges in Noida

Hi.

For AAFT's short‑term acting or anchoring certificate courses, the on‑campus schedules are generally structured as full‑time weekday batches rather than part‑time evening or weekend batches:

Current Batch Format

• Campus‑based short courses such as Certificate in Acting & Presentation and Certificate in News Anchoring are typically 3‑month programs held 5 days a week on weekdays with a day schedule during regular hours. 

• There is no official mention on AAFT's main site or admissions FAQs of separate weekend‑only or evening‑only batches for these campus short courses. According to student Q&A discussion pages, AAFT does not currently offer weekend or evening batches for the short‑term acting or anchoring courses on campus.

Alternative Options

• AAFT Online (the institute's online learning platform) does provide some flexibility — not specific evening/weekend on‑campus classes — but online short modules that you can complete more flexibly around your schedule. These are separate from the physical campus batches and may suit working professionals or those needing flexible timing.

AAFT's Practical Exposure

Industry‑oriented, hands‑on training
AAFT emphasises practical learning across filmmaking disciplines — directing, cinematography, editing, sound, and production — with most courses structured around hands‑on project work, mock shoots, studio exercises and live production labs rather than purely classroom lectures. The curriculum often follows a 70% practical, 30% theory model, meaning a big focus on doing rather than just reading.

Professional infrastructure on campus
AAFT has its own film studios, post‑production labs, shooting floors, cameras, editing suites and sound facilities, enabling students to learn equipment handling, real production workflows and post‑production tasks. 

Guest lectures & workshops
Students frequently get exposure to industry practitioners, masterclasses and expert mentoring sessions, which helps bridge theory and real work.
