Course programme

With every new batch of Crafting Creative Communications (CCC) programme at Mudra Institute of Communications, Ahmedabad (MICA), we hand-pick a bunch of boat-rockers, mavericks, wranglers and disrupters-of-the-status-quo and put them through a creative commando boot camp. Then we release them on an unsuspecting world as Copywriters, Art Directors and Television commercial makers.

Students of MICA's CCC programme have bagged nominations and awards at the IBDA'A Awards for Creative Excellence, Dubai. They have also won the Addy Awards, USA, including one Best-of-the-Show award. They are working in global media companies, advertising agencies and production houses many aspirants would give an arm and a leg to get into.

As you go through the creative work presented here, be prepared for discomfort: it may shake you up and disrupt your daily routines. After all, they are expressions by bright youngsters who have realized that their backbone can be used not just to stand upright but to whip up courage to think and express themselves differently, too.
