Mass Communication & Media

Hi Shilpa
Sure though you must look at the entire field of media. There are several careers in media in writing, production or post production:
-You can become a reporter, actor or getting behind the camera to direct, cinematograph or do finishing work as an editor, compositor or a VFX artist who can add reality to 3D visualizations.
-You may even be a graphic artist who designs the screens, or an animator who brings stories to life as a proxy actor for onscreen characters. You can get into production, whether live or animated.
-You can be a story writer who writes for live and animated screens or even roll the story into a video/ pc game.
-You can be a script writer who would stop at nothing to give wonderful scene setups to bring the story to life.
-You could be an artist who designs characters or who storyboards the film for live or animated performance.
-You can also double up as a voice over artist who gives his/ her voice to the characters or dub for movie stars, or even be a radio star.
-You can alternatively look at web for a web of careers in web design, online marketing, search engine optimization, content writing, social media promoting. Any extra skill can be used in this.
So it turns out to be one of the most challenging as well as satisfying careers. Sure not recommended for the weak hearted.
Do remember that digital design careers (e.g. web design, graphics, UI design, animation, VFX, multimedia) give better profits since they can be delivered anywhere in the world and hence may earn in dollars, resulting in better rewards for designers.
Some people are passionate about acting, they must understand that acting cannot provide jobs since this is an assignment based industry and one must fit the role. So it could be better to enter this industry after acquiring a technical skill.
Wish you the best for your career. Remember, your career is a resultant of your knowledge combined with your passion and expression ability.

Hi,
There are various career options available these days. However, I would recommend that you first concentrate on your 12th standard as it is very crucial in setting up a firm foundation. Before you decide what to do, it is important that you become aware of a critical factor for success in your chosen profession. Your exam scores are one part of it considering how competitive it is to land a seat.
Photography is a unique and creative medium of self-expression. It plays a major role in education, publicity, industries, scientific and technical researches. A couple of years ago, the suggestion of photography as a profession, would not have been taken seriously. Photography has mostly been considered a hobby, and at best, a part-time, extra pocket-money earning activity. But today, photographers are so much in the news, in demand and respected financially, that those who have the talent and interest in photography can now seriously consider this a viable career option. With the explosion of the communication network, the growth of advertising and media and the fashion boom, photography has now become a profession with great commercial value. It has become a good source of income and a means to a comfortable life.
There are several areas of specializations for photographers: Press photographers supply pictures to the national and local press, and must be versatile with an ability to photograph all kinds of subjects. They must have journalistic instincts, know what makes a good news picture and be able to write accurate captions, work well with reporters, be quick and often work under difficult conditions.Feature photography essentially involves telling a story in pictures and therefore requires knowledge of the subject. Many photographers specialize in the photography of wildlife,sports travel, environment etc. Advertising photographs are taken either by the photographic departments of advertising agencies, by photographic studios, or by freelance photographers. Advertising photography is possibly the best paid and most competitive branch ; success depends entirely on ability, efficiency.
Fashion photography has developed recently in India. Most fashion photography is done by specialist studios or freelancers who are commissioned by fashion houses of advertising agencies. Other photographic specialties include aerial photography, scientific photography and so on.
Hope this helps. Feel free to raise questions.
Wish You Luck!

Hi Rubel,
The main difference between a drama and theatre is that dramas are written versions of plays, while theatres are animated renditions of play texts. Both drama and theatre are words associated with performing arts and have a very similar meaning that is enough to confuse a lot of people. In fact, people make use of these words interchangeably, which is not correct. The differences between drama and theatre will be highlighted in this article, to enable readers to make correct usage of these words.
Drama
Drama is a word that comes from Greek Dran, which means to do or perform. It literally means action. Drama has many forms and must be construed as a generic term taking on many forms, one of which is theatre. The act or process of performing a play in front of an audience is dramatization. Drama can be an episode of life, such as 9/11, a section in a DVD library or a library of plays, or it can be a fiction full of emotions and conflicts.
Theatre
A word that is very closely linked to drama is the word theatre. Unlike drama, theatre must have three basic properties; a space to perform, actors, and an audience. In the 'space' a drama is brought to life by the ideas of a dramatist, or playwright, the ideas of a director, and the actors' skill which combine to make an audience believe that what is happening on stage -the drama- is real.
The type of theatre can be changed, by changing the three properties, for example, the space in which the actors perform.There is street theatre, in which the actors generally mark out an area of the street and perform a piece of drama whilst the audience gather round or watch a short part as they walk past. On the other hand there is rehearsed theatre; this is usually performed by highly skilled actors that perform for a living. The space that is used for this would have a large stage, seated audience, and special lighting to help the performance come to life.
