Workshop on Screenplay & Direction 2017 in Dhaka

Pathshala is the early school of Photography in South Asia region, which offers various short-term and long-term educational programs including workshops and presentations in photography and multimedia journalism throughout the year. Pathshala started in 1998. Since then, the institution has slowly grown to become a fully-fledged photo resource center based in Dhaka, Bangladesh. The South Asian Media Institute of Photography not only allows students to explore the world of image making but provides them opportunities to question beyond the confines of the discipline. Pathshala is a distinctive multimedia educational organization that has made challenging social inequality its central driving force. Over the last sixteen years, Pathshala has successfully partnered with national and international organizations and educational institutions to conduct several successful socially responsible programs.

On 22 March 2010, Pathshala launched its Cinema Department (initially known as Broadcast and Multimedia Department). This department currently offers training in screenwriting, film direction, cinematography, video editing, motion graphics, animation, news presentation, and reporting.

This media institute designed this workshop on Screenplay & Direction for individuals, companies, and organizations. Part of the long-term plan is to disseminate their unique expertise across the region through master classes, special events, and conferences focused on the issues faced by journalists and media professionals in South Asia. The workshop will be conducted by- Haider Rizvi and Kha Ma Harun.
