Creative Portfolio & Visualization

There is a huge gap in job vacancies and number of students who take up art courses like foundation, painting, Art Teacher Diploma (ATD) and Fine Arts. Due to lack of correct guidance Fine Art graduates get disappointed. For those who already have a strong sense of art, we provide knowledge about software and creative thinking to succeed in Ad world or have own business in Design and Printing. To benefit students in Rural areas, we have designed this short duration in Pune. Education should support your life needs.

Printing & Visual Communication Design

This course provides a golden opportunity for those who have interest and talent in art but could not pursue Applied Art Institute or Fine Art due to pressure of completing degree/diploma. Similarly, this course also caters the needs of working professionals who have done DTP/Graphics course but do not have that creative spark to progress in Ad world. For those with right creativity maturity, it is possible to regain missed opportunity through this one year course. As per student’s requirement, we also provide software training seperately. Through hardwork and dedication, you can create an impactful portfolio and get your dream job in a reputed Ad Agency.

  • At the end of the course, the student is ready in creative thinking, software, and correct attitude. He is also ready with a smart portfolio. On completion, Manthan assesses the style of student’s work, and accordingly gives a suitable placement in the Ad world. Today, hundreds of Manthan graduates are shining as creative directors and visualizers in leading Ad agencies in India and abroad. They have made their names as award-winning brand promoters.

    Manthan job placement – start your upward journey on the ladder!

  • Creativity cannot be judged merely by numerical scores/marks. Examination marks or degree certificates are not the only criteria for Ad agencies during job interviews. Your talent is judged mainly on your creative work. Hence, Manthan has no conventional examination pattern. Here the student has to reach a level of excellence in their portfolio and get it approved by the faculty. On approval, the course completion certificate is given. This portfolio gives the power to the student to get the right job.

    Show your attitude in your portfolio – not in exams!

  • This is another unique part of main Manthan courses. In the concluding part of these courses, Manthan students are given workshops and interactions with senior agency professionals from the Ad world. This gives them real-time experience and guidance, expanding their creative knowledge.

    A mentor, a Godfather takes your career to a new height!

The Manthan faculty, who are industry insiders, offer Smart Ideas and applied knowledge of software for advertising assignments. Our syllabus follows Ad agency standards and process flow. Design demonstrations and latest trends are taught on AV projectors. Our students are given in-depth and practical knowledge of perspective to be able to create isometric designs. They are taught to create isometric logos, maps, and illustrations with precession, clarity, and warmth.

    Go smart with Smart software!

  • Ideas, the result of creative thinking, are at the centre of advertising. When you are good at creative thinking, success in a professional and personal life has no limit. Manthan has a methodology to train students in creative thinking and developing ideas in time, every time. It expands their vision to look at the world with a broader perspective. It teaches the students to observe, meditate, and convert life experiences in creative ideas.

    At Manthan creative thinking is not by chance, but a habit!

  • The advertising world is continually changing, bringing in new brands, trends, and media. Manthan has a research-based updated syllabus that applies to new age advertising.

    Upgrade yourself to change with the time!

  • Established in 2003, Manthan follows the Indian Gurukul system – where the Guru guides the Shishya from day one. It does not consist one-way lectures, rather an interaction of knowledge, experience, and dialogue with Gurus. The focus is on the development of each student’s potential, passion, creativity, and attitude to achieve. Thus, we develop their personality and lead them to self-discovery.

    Teaching beyond teaching – the way of self-discovery.

  • The conditions to get an admission at Manthan are – your hunger for creative work, readiness to work smart, and a burning desire to make it in career and life! You do not need scholarly marks, you can be 10th/12th pass or fail. Also, prior knowledge of artistic skills like drawing or sketching is not essential. You can also switch from any stream. BMM, BCA, MBA students can have an added benefit here and go higher in career. The Ad world mainly needs idea thinkers – and not talent in marks.

    You don’t have to be art qualified to be creative.
