What type of education and qualification should I have to become a Cinematographer?
Dear Aspirant,
Cinematography might be an extremely encouraging and engaging field for those who have a knack for it. Although no particular formal degree might be a prerequisite to pursue this profession, Bachelors in Media and Mass Communication (BMMMC), or Bachelors in Journalism and Mass Communication (BJMC) might help you understand the basics and gain a relatively smooth entry into the field. You shall be eligible to pursue these UG courses with a background of any subjects (Commerce, Science, Humanities) in 10+2.
Later on, if required, you may also pursue a PGDM in Cinematography.
