Ever since the start of India’s first
technology media institute, Media
One, in September 2002, the offices
of Jasubhai Digital Media have
been abuzz with excitement. Media One
offers hands-on training in Media Management,
which includes components
relating to technology as well as allied areas
such as design, research and production.
The students at Media One are
exposed to every aspect of digital media
and technology in a practical way. Besides
daily assignments, frequent field visits to
media and technology companies and
lectures from industry professionals, the
students put in practical work hours as
part of an editorial group, at the Test Centre
or Media Studio amongst other things.
Abhiram Iyengar, a Bachelor of Electronics
from Karnataka, is from the first
batch of Media One students. He recently
got his feet wet in the Digit Test Centre.
Here’s what he had to say: “From the
time I joined Media One and was introduced
to different departments within
Jasubhai Digital Media, the Test Centre
was what attracted me the most. The
place is full of the latest computer peripherals
and is heaven for anybody remotely
interested in technology.
On my first day itself I
was assigned a bunch of
games to review. Within a
matter of hours I’d played
every type of game conceivable,
from Adventure, Arcade,
RPG to FPS and RTS games.
And that was not all. I was
supposed to write mock
reviews on each game I played, taking
into account its graphics and sound quality,
ease of use of the interface and the
overall gameplay experience. Boy was
it fun!
Over the next few weeks, I tested and
wrote a number of articles on processors,
motherboards, chipsets, and graphics
cards. This improved my knowledge on
how each component works and the
relationship between the various subsystems
of a PC. It also gave me an insight
on some new technologies on the
horizon and a look at how the PC
market operates.
I also had the opportunity to attend
presentations by various technology companies
and attend some press conferences.
Currently I’m engaged full time in
testing motherboards and learning the
nitty gritties of using various benchmarking
software. Other than all this, I
also learnt what it is to work under constant
pressures of deadlines and the
importance of working smarter by planning
ahead in today’s fast paced workplace.
All in all, it’s been a truly wonderful
experience.”
