To learn specifically about Camera Handling Techniques, you can pursue an Advanced Diploma in Camera Handling and Cinematography Techniques, a Certificate in Camera & Lighting Techniques, a Diploma in Cinematography, or a Diploma in Camera & Lighting Techniques.
You can also go for a degree course in Cinematography, Photography, or Filmmaking.

• Class 10 and 12 marksheets
• Migration Certificate
• A bachelor's degree (if applicable)
• A master's degree (if applicable)
• Passport-sized photographs (at least 2)
• A valid photo ID (Adhaar, PAN Card, Passport, License, etc.)

Of course, India is one of the most famous countries around the world for its Bollywood, cinematography, and visual content. India leverages visual content across countless platforms with a billion audience. And in any visual content creation, a Camera and Lighting professional is an essential part. 

With a Camera Handling & Lighting course, you can learn many technical and non-technical things, such as camera operation, video editing, lighting techniques, composition, exposure, portfolio development, communication skills, attention to detail, and more.

Though you can get a job in the Film and TV industry even without pursuing a course, pursuing a valid degree or Diploma course will help you gain the right knowledge and skills required in the industry. A course will also help you create a work portfolio, build industry connections through internships, industrial visits, or placements.  

Beyond Bollywood and production houses, as a Film and TV student, you can explore other recruiting fields like Media Houses, Streaming Services, Theatres, Event Management, Advertising Agencies, Fashion Studios, Government Broadcast Departments, and so on.

Of course, it's definitely possible to get a job in Bollywood once you complete a course in Film & TV. A Film and TV course will not help you get the right knowledge and skills in the field, but will also help you make and grow your industry network with industrial visits, internships, and placement opportunities. 
You can explore your field of interest, whether it's technical, writing, camera, lighting, or anything, you can then explore the projects and job options accordingly.
