The Professional Diploma in Film Direction is one of Neo Film School’s flagship programs, offered in 12-month and 18-month formats. It takes you on a transformative journey from an aspiring storyteller to a confident, Professional Film Director. As the saying goes, the director is the captain of the ship. It’s ultimately the director’s vision that comes alive on screen, shaped with the support of departments like Cinematography, Editing, Sound Design, and Art Direction. While each department contributes creatively, the director unites these ideas and makes decisions that best serve the story. If you dream of becoming a film director, the first skill to master is decision-making by knowing how to elevate your storytelling and collaborate effectively with creative professionals. You’ll also learn how to translate a script to screen and gain the technical expertise essential for professional filmmaking. Our comprehensive film direction course is designed to answer all these questions and more. The program is led by our School Director, Sri. Siby Jose Chalissery, whose vast experience and insight are reflected in the course structure and teaching approach.
