Acting Course for Deaf Persons

As you all know, we have already arranged basic course in screen acting through our YWTC Trust in partnership with Film and Television Institute of India for persons with locomotor disabilities.

Now we are planning to arrange such course for deaf persons. As its first time for our YWTC Trust and for FTII to arrange such program, today we had a trial session with a few of our deaf friends, FTII Registrar Mr Sayyid Rabeehashmi and faculties Prof Jijoy Pulikal Rajagopalan and Mr Joy Fernandes. From the interaction we came to know the requirements. v-shesh helped us in arranging sign language interpretation for this session. Thank you very much Raja Rajasekharan P !

I sincerely hope this interaction will definitely help FTII Officials to design the course as per the needs of the participants.

Eagerly waiting for the final confirmation from FTII to announce about this course !

Thanks a ton Rabee Sir for considering our request positively and for taking Swift action. I am confident Prof Jijoy, Mr Joy Fernandes and other faculties will make the learning exceeding the expectations of the participants.

Thank you so much Dr Saundarya Rajesh for promising to support our project 🙏😍
