Croatian Dancer Trains B.Voc Students

Maja Drobac, a Croatian dancer, with her saha-shishye Chitra Arvind, enthralled the B.Voc. students with their workshop.
Maja is a Croatian lady, an expert in contemporary dance, has also learned Bharata Natyam in Bangalroe for eight years with Ms Lalita Srinivasan.
The three-hour workshop, which included demonstrations on aesthetics of dance and body movement, also ensure that the students get enough practice to be "physical", and practical tips on how to use body and movements in film and animation.
Maja, an avid admirer of Jan Fabre, spoke with absolute mastery over Indian classical, Western ballet, and contemporary dances, and very specially comparing and contrasting Indian with Western practices in depicting body, eros, and spirit in arts. She is also a trained film director.

As part of the workshop, Chitra Arvind also demonstrated three capsules of Bharata Natyam.
St Joseph's College has launched two Bachelor of Vocation (B.Voc.) courses at Under Graduate level: Visual Media and Film Making and Digital Media and Animation.

Film Making and Animation Courses
11 June. Many have been asking me about our two new B.Voc. programmes - 1) Visual Media and Filmmaking, and 2) Digital Media and Animation.

They are happening. We have received official approval from the UGC.
Admissions will begin next week. We will update details in a couple of days.

Admission Procedure:
You have to make a new online application. It is only online! If you have any difficulties, please come to the College with the necessary documents, and we will help you in filling up applications.  [You need documents like marks cards, soft copy pp-size photographs (with a hard copy, preferably), a DD for Rs. 300/- addressed to Principal, St Joseph's College Bangalore, towards for application and all your personal details.]

You will have to submit a new application, even if you had applied for any other course earlier.
There will be an entrance test mid-next week (date is to be announced); it could be Thursday. Most Probably, if everything goes on well!
The test will be followed by an personal interview.

Please remember, these are Under Graduate/ Bachelor's courses like BVC (Visual Communication). The difference  is the two new programmes are much focused, and are industry-oriented. You can leave the course at the end of any year, with a Diploma (after completing one year) or Advanced Diploma (after completing two years) or Bachelor's degree (after completing three full years successfully).

Course details:
These courses aim to help you become confident and proficient in one of the core components of the programme, like Photography, Cinematography & Editing, and Documentary/Music Videos, etc (B.Voc.- Visual Media & Filmmaking) or Graphic Design, 2-D Animation, or 3-D Modelling and Animation (B.Voc.- Digital Media & Animation)

Classes are expected to begin on 30 June 2014.


For any clarification, you may contact the Head of the Department of Communication, Rev Dr Richard Rego SJ or the College office.

If the HOD does not take the call, it could be he is in the class! Have patience.

Those Under Graduate programmes which have written entrance tests, will have them on 18/05/2014, followed by personal interviews the next day. There are a few other UG courses, which have only interviews. And these will be held from next week till the first week of May, according to their schedules. Hopefully, most of you have received your invite! If not, please get back to the College.

You can still apply, provided you agree to provide the latest marks cards when they are available (and the College needs them), and with the hope you would do only better than your previous semesters.

For Mass Communication programme, of course, it is the second entrance test on 27 April. Those who did not get a call for the test conducted in the first week of April, you could now apply.

There will be another entrance test (in mid-May) for most of our Post Graduate programmes and some Under Graduate programmes like BVC (Bachelors in Visual Communication), EJP (English - Journalism - Psychology), BSW, etc. Just in case you miss out the April test!
