"Students of Whistling Woods are lucky to
be here,
because there are numbers and numbers of film institutes going out all
over the
world and all over India and none that I know that has the heart and
soul and
sense of purpose and honesty that emerges from Mr. Ghai's institute."

"I am very happy to be here. You students are on a beautiful road which will lead someplace that you won't know yet. Your journey will be glamorous but there will be a lot of frustration, you have to keep moving ahead despite all odds. 2% luck is important but your 98% hard work will pay off eventually. I wish you all the best and great success ahead. "

I'm learning so much more here than what they teach at other
Animation Institutes. We get to dabble in the filmmaking side
of things- we think about lighting in our Cinematography
classes, learn the finer nuances of creating a character in
acting classes, are introduced to the business aspect of the
industry in the BOFT classes. All these forays into
other specializations really enhance my experience as a
student of Animation. Email : molasi.videeta@whistlingwoods.net

I knew I didn't want to study film making in the Western
world where I have always lived. It was my sense of adventure
and desire to live in a new culture that led me to come to
Asia. I specifically zeroed in on India because it is
English-speaking as opposed to countries like Japan or China. Email : wilski.alexis@whistlingwoods.net

I find that the WWI Acting course is very grueling and
challenging but phenomenally improving me as an actor. Right from doing
backflips, martial arts, classical dancing and street theater, our days are jam
packed with extra-curricular activities. Also during class time we also learn
from the best?faculty who are not just established actors, but great teachers
as well. The filmmaking process is very inclusive and even as an actor I am
encouraged to give inputs in the whole filmmaking process. This is the kind of
holistic creative training that WWI nurtures. Email : khan.salman@whistlingwoods.net

I can never wait to go to the next day because I know it's always going
to be really interesting for me. I'm always looking ahead to what I'll
be learning, who I'm going to meet next, which director, which faculty,
Its giving me all that I want and I'm really enjoying it. It's my home
now. Email : satarkar.aditya@whistlingwoods.net

I know it is a life changing experience, and this is just a start. At school I feel at home, even my gym is there, my yoga, my books...I have managed to sustain my life style...yes coming from Dubai, life style is a big word. The school premises are well maintained, the staff are always welcoming and pay a lot of attention to details...As for the faculty, I am loving every class I attend and wish I could spend more quality time with each professor, they are a wealth of knowledge and experience and I just can't have enough...As for the management I can see and feel how devoted they are in constructing this institution, brick by brick, class by class and I know they believe, so I believe.

" All in all, from the bottom of my heart I want to thank Mr. Subhash Ghai and Whistling Woods for giving us this knowledge that has helped me reach this position within 2 years of my education at the Institute, which otherwise would have taken me at least 8 to 10 years of hard work in the Industry ".

Being an international student I picked Whistling Woods for its world
class facilities, campus and curriculum after a careful survey
of film schools across the world. Unlike other film schools in
the country Whistling Woods with its unique location in Film
City gives us unparalleled industry access with a focus on
hands-on practical experience. Email : dmello.rochelle@whistlingwoods.net

Since joining Whistling Woods my entire film watching experience has changed dramatically. I dissect plots, critique camera angles, pay attention to lighting and framing and have a greater appreciation for what appears to be effortless acting- my understanding of movie making as an art form has heightened exponentially.

Whistling Woods was an obvious choice for me because of its unique
producing course which has no curricular comparison in any
other Film school on the continent. To be immersed completely
into a world where we eat, live and breathe cinema has given
me real purpose and enthusiasm to pursue my chosen field. Email : kulkarni.ruta@whistlingwoods.net

I am thoroughly enjoying working with young aspiring filmmakers like
myself who share the same zeal and passion for creativity.
Even after a grueling day of classes and shooting, we get back
to our hostel and sit around in the common room talking about
script ideas and storylines late into the night. Email : dhawan.arjun@whistlingwoods.net
