Career In Video Jockeying

Video jockeying does not require any specific academic qualifications. You could be a dropout or just a humble graduate or a postgraduate in mathematics; it doesn’t matter as long as you walk the talk and do it with “style”. Quite a few disillusioned youth try making it big in this profession. People, be warned; all that glamour doesn’t come at a small price, talent is a necessity and not everyone has it in them. However if you think that as far as the talent is concerned you have no doubts then a lot of short term courses are available. Most of these courses have been started by media houses or stalwarts in the industry; their main aim is to introduce you to the industry, making it big is entirely your brain churning headache! No course can give you fame, it can only guide you; the rest is up to you.
Details Of The Course
Most of these courses are 3 months to 6 months in duration. The course details include the following:
  • Techniques to improve voice modulation
  • Posture correction through yoga
  • Theatre exercises
  • Acting in front of the Camera
  • Scripting
  • Modeling and photo-shoots
  • Accent correction
  • Video editing ( includes techniques like cross fading and scratching)
  • Basics of television production
  • Basics of makeup and costuming
  • Lighting techniques
The courses end with an internship program in a reputed music channel.
Skills Required
Good command over the spoken word, great body language and an amazing screen presence; these are some of the pre-requisites required to be a video jockey. Couple these skills with a wicked sense of humor which will have people rolling on the floor with laughter or a whacky theme like the “MTV bakra” then your road to fame is all chalked out. The only thing left to do is to count your green and stack it up nice and fat in a Swiss bank account! Or buy an island in the pacific! Good looks are not bad, if you have them, flaunt them. In an industry that depends entirely on how you look; a six packer or an hour glass curve is only going to add to your already loaded bank account. However, it is not a major pre-requisite. If you can pass of as a cute fatty you still have takers; it is all about the charisma, if they like you, you are in!
Career Prospects
“Show me the money” this is going to be your mantra, if you get big in this field. You will have the liberty to reject scripts and shows and eventually branch out into the movies. Once you get famous you become a saleable commodity always on demand, however the tough part is getting there. As terrible, as it sounds it is entirely about that one big break or that one audition where you prove your mettle. Fate and luck are two sides of the same coin and only when the coin fall sideways do you have a chance and an opportunity to live your dreams. It is a highly competitive field, however if the stars align you might just be the next Nikhil Chinnappa or Nafisa Ali.

How To Make A Resume For First Job

Resume! If there is anything constant in your ever-changing work life, it is this document. You may be at the top-most ladder of your organisation and may not need your experience certificates of the past. Even references would cease being important but resumes – now that is one thing you would never want to mess up. And the first resume is like your first kiss, wherein your visual and theoretical experiences or learning suffer a stroke. Writing a first resume is like writing your first alphabet. Remember that cluelessness and apprehension when you wrote your first “A”. What if you wrote it wrong? Wouldn’t that mean the teacher would dislike you? Well, the teacher may not dislike you for a wrong alphabet but your interviewers are highly likely to give you a pass if your resume is not well written. Agreed, that you don’t have any work experience but that doesn’t mean your resume has to be blank. You cannot make a multi-coloured resume but that doesn’t call for a bland one either. Your first resume must be professional and crisp yet attractive. And it can be, if you follow the tips as under.
Writing Your First Resume
Being a fresher doesn’t mean that your resume is just a paper that just lists the academic qualification that you have earned throughout your life. It still is a snapshot of you and your personality. Here are a few tips that would surely help you in writing your very first snapshot called resume.
Keep It Simple
Your resume should be distinguished with its simplicity and grace. You cannot make your resume like a Hawaii brochure to attract attention. It will only earn you a negative impression.
Paper Quality
No, this is not Hollywood and you are not Reese Witherspoon. You can’t even think of a glossy, colored and scented paper for a resume unless you are applying for a media job. Stick to heavy and good-quality white A4 sheets.

Length
A fresher resume must never be more than a page long. Remember, recruiters do not have time to spare on reading long resumes. They are on a look out of small and crisp resumes.
Organisation
An effective resume is all about organisation and chronology. Since you are a fresher, you have to start with an objective/introduction followed by internship details and academic qualification. For experienced personnel, the objective may be skipped and the resume should directly start with jobs done in reverse chronological order.
Experience Counts
No matter how small an experience, it always counts. Make sure you mention each of your internships, no matter how small, in your resume. Mention your part-time jobs as well.
Accomplishments
Your achievements or accomplishments must follow the academic qualifications and should be grouped as “Achievements” and “Extra Curricular Activities”. Mention your academic and job-related accomplishments as achievements and other sports or non-voluntary work like youth committee etc under ECAs.
Numbers Matter
Never forget that a resume is the only way to impress the recruiter. Give them the numbers. If you were a good student then your grades and if you worked then your achievements quantified are a must on your resume.
Fonts
Try not to get carried away with the stylish curves of “Monotype” or the funny grooves of “Comic Sans” fonts for regular jobs. Stick to basics like Arial and Verdana with a font size of 9-12 so that even the faxes look good.
Action
Your recruiters are not looking for duties. They have duties and they are looking for active and goal-oriented people to perform these duties. So use words like “accomplished”, “attained” etc which show that you have actually done something.
Honesty Dignifies
Under no circumstance should you forge any details. Your crosschecking may reveal that and you may find yourself exposed and embarrassed.
References Use references of people who know you personally like your teachers and HODs. Using a principal’s name may sound important but your lack of intimacy with her/him can backfire.

Acting Career : Resume format

Theatre or acting is one profession that people praise and write down in the same breath. People who have done theatre are often seen writing down their cinema counterparts as silly and talentless; the latter accuse the theatre persons of elitism. The show business is full of bored people who see every person who calls himself or herself as an actor with suspicion, even try to exploit them in other ways. The field is one of extreme professionalism, which demands strict adherence to time frames and deadlines and where precision is what is prized above everything. In such a milieu, one can easily expect the recruiter to expect similar professionalism from potential recruits, even in the way one writes one’s resume. Since the profession deals with the physical attributes of the person just as much as his or her abilities, interested actors should make their physical appearance clear in the resume, even provide close-up pictures if possible. Here’s the format for an actor’s resume.

Some Tips
  • Never tell tall tales in your resume; remember that the people you are planning to work with have at least ten times as many contacts as you have. In all possibility, your “little white lie” will easily be discovered. Since a lot of fake people enter this profession, hirers are always on guard. They will always be two steps ahead of you, so do not even think of lying to them.
  • You can also make an arrangement to supplement your resume with pictures, say on the left corner of the page. Small, passport sized pictures of close-ups of your face, or pictures taken by a professional photographer while you were on stage would be ideal for it. Since you can easily size the pictures to the required dimensions of your need using softwares like PhotoShop, this option will also prove how professional you are.
  • If you are new to the field and do not have much experience, you should know that training is equally important in an actor’s career. Having some good training on your résumé is a good thing. It is a chance for you to show to anyone, that even though you might not have the best credits yet, at least you are trying your best to become the best actor you can be.
