NOTE MAKING PASSAGE 1
Think out of the box and achieve new heights. Question conventional wisdom and live your
dreams-this seems to be the mantra of the new generation, who are breaking out of the
traditional moulds and exploring totally unchartered territories. Yes, we are talking about
pursuing careers requiring creative inputs and not confining to run-of-mill options.
The generation of today is ready to take risks and opts for offbeat careers to become
successful. More students are choosing offbeat careers for themselves like graphic
designing, sculpting, fashion designing, film making, tourism and travel and much more.
Gone are the days when children were forced to crack engineering or medical entrance tests
to bag a plum job. With increasing competition, a good degree from a good institute does
not guarantee a good job. Then there are some students who have a creative bent of mind.
Take the case of Anirudha Thorat, a mechanical engineer, who completed his course but
then chose to start his career in photography. He says, 'The mechanical engineering course
was simply out of family pressure. I would like to see myself as a famous photographer
rather than a good mechanical engineer
The world of fashion offers opportunities as fashion designers, textile designers, jewellery
designers, etc. A creative person can certainly succeed as a creative artist, commercial artist,
animation expert, film maker, graphic artist, professional photographer, copywriter, to
name a few. In case a student has taken up graphic designing, he can easily find a place in
advertising, animation, printing technology. Apart from providing a different career option,
the course also brings out the creative side of the students and develops an aesthetic sense
among them. It also increases the sense of participation among students.
Says Chavi Swaroop, a career counseller,' as the world globalises, the need for a formal
degree or certificate is no longer considered the basic requirement for success. What is
needed is an inherent talent, liking for the job, motivation and commitment.'No other
industry exemplifies this better than the media industry. One could work and succeed as an
illustrator if one is good at art, sketching or cartooning. Since creativity knows DO
boundaries, a youngster can excel in fields as wide ranging and diverse as being a cartoonist,
tattoo artist, or beauty professional. Says Shyamali Bansal, a beauty professional, 'People of
all ages are keen to look good and we beauty professionals satisfy them. There is also a
need for specialization and there is immense demand for good stylists and bridal make up'.
