With an aim to arm another generation of young film-makers with a never-ending passion for good cinema, Westford Institute of Film Technology (WIFT) was founded under the support and guidance of the Westford Academy and Training Pvt. Ltd. WIFT stands for an excellent education system with state-of-the-art training facilities, which has made it a leading name in the list of Indian film institutes. In 2017, WIFT won the Best Film Institute- Kerala award at Indywood film Carnival held at Ramoji Film City.
Here, at Westford Institute of Film Technology (WIFT) we believe in the passion of filmmaking, the spirit of storytelling and the joy of entertainment. We don’t just create professionals but help discover and perfect the filmmaker in you too.
As we commemorate our 10-year milestone, we were thrilled to announce a significant achievement: as WIFT enters its 12th year now, we proudly stand as the inaugural film school in India to establish a dedicated movie production company exclusively for our students.WIFT boldly undertook the initiative to establish this production banner, aimed at providing our alumni with the opportunity to embark on their debut independent projects.
At WIFT CINEMAS, we place our trust in the exceptional talents of our students, allowing them to assume pivotal roles such as directing, cinematography, and editing, among others, based on their demonstrated expertise in their respective domains. This initiative has given rise to a production company firmly grounded in success and unwaveringly dedicated to equipping our students with essential resources and training.
We take pride in our students’ contribution to film making. The illustrious Alumni of WIFT have been a part of major feature film projects across the years and continue to make us proud even today.
WIFT organises and hosts various events, celebrations and programmes at the WIFT Campus to provide real world exposure to our students. These include Film Screenings, Face To Face with Experts, Cultural Events and more.
