FX School Mumbai, Diploma, Graphic Design

Remarks

The world of Bollywood always seemed like a dream to me and FX School has made me an integral part of it now! Even though I won't be shooting or directing, I will be playing a very prominent part in marketing the film.

Course Curriculum Overview

It is a 9-month course, but stuffed with a lot of learning and education. In less than a year, we were taught how to develop our aesthetic skills and hone our art. We were taught different technologies and software that is used.

Placement Experience

Oh, just brilliant! Not just the film industry, in the digital world of 2020, graphic designers are in high demand! There is no dearth of opportunities, especially as you learn about methods like typography and UI/UX!

Fee Structure And Facilities

It is quite feasible and the return on investment is so high for this course! No fixed course fee is ascertained but according to number of students and the demand of the course, fee structure keeps changing.

Campus Life

No, there are no such sporting or cultural activities. Rather, the whole course seems like a big film fest! The technology and software used in FX school is of the best quality and exactly what Film City uses!

Admission

The only two things you need to be eligible for this college is a Class 12 pass certificate and an intense zeal to shine in the world of films. I've always been crazy about graphic design, so I chose that course.

Faculty

4.5

The faculty are all fun people who have worked in big ticket Bollywood films as graphic designers and know how much sweat goes into the final design that is selected! Such a privilege to learn from them!

An Honest Review By a 2-nd Year Student

Likes

Supportive faculty, Good Infrastructure, Proper amenities like water and maintained washrooms in every floor.
Events and functions are held throughout the year.
The Girls to boys ratio is almost 1:1.5 in my course.

Dislikes

Almost 20% students join through management quota .They don't engage in any study related work they just come to college as a timepass.
Guards here have unnecessary attitude for students , the bouncers are very rude and don't even know how to behave.
The attendance criteria is overly strict and detains you if your attendance goes below 75%. below 50 percent u are not allowed to give exam of that subject.

Course Curriculum Overview:

Some subjects are really relevant for real worth like i had IOT in 2nd sem which was very interesting . Some courses like Engineering physics didn't cover the broad aspect and just gave intro of topics like Quantum computing. For Non-Practical subjects the curriculum felt out of relevance.

A Good choice for engineering

Likes

I liked the college campus, infrastructure and the helpful nature of the faculty. Teachers explain concepts well and are supportive when students need guidance.

Course Curriculum Overview:

Why I chose the course: The course has a good mix of theory, practical subjects, labs and technical skills, which influenced my decision. Real-world preparation: The curriculum gives basic industry knowledge and practical experience. It is also useful for higher studies. Improvements: More practical projects, industry visits, updated technology and hands-on training would make the course better. Teaching could be more practical and interactive. Exams: Internal exams are conducted during the semester and university exams at the end. The difficulty is moderate and manageable with regular study.

Overall Experience at college

Likes

The faculty members are supportive and approachable.
The MCA curriculum is aligned with current industry relevant subjects.
They organise sessions and seminars by experts.

Dislikes

More placement opportunities for relevant job profiles.
Practical application workshops related to emerging domains

Placement Experience:

Campus placements are available for students generally during the final year of the MCA program. The college provides sessions for resume making, mock interviews and soft skills. The placement opportunities and packages vary each year depending on the companies visiting the campus and students performance. After completing my MCA, I plan to build and apply my technical skills by securing a job in the IT sector.

The real side

Likes

Fee structure, Non teaching staff behavior
No Minimum attendance, fest and activities
Cafetria was affordable, mess was also affordable

Dislikes

Mess food was horrible, hostel rooms are leaking, washrooms are of low quality, wifi network is too slow
No faculty is learnt enough to teach students, I mean to say that they are not even qualified in their own subjects.
Fine is taken for any mistake you do or not submit your work on time

Course Curriculum Overview:

Course curriculum is old fashioned, these tools are not used in the current market, they teach us microprocessor 8085 and stuffs like computer ethics which i mean is not that important in todays industry. The curriculum fails to improve us in any aspect.
