Bridging the gap
Arka Mediaworks released its Telugu film Uma Maheswara Urga Roopasya on Netflix in 2020, which ranked in Netflix’s India's Top 10 list. With over 500 new titles added to the banks of OTT platforms like Netflix, Amazon Prime and Hotstar every year - it is vital for a production house to acquire data-based insight into the viewing preferences of its audience and create films that will remain popular for a long time. Data scientists can predict these viewing preferences by investigating the viewing history of millions of users and analysing the artistic attributes of the most-liked films.

Meet Our Certified Menterns
It was amazing! I learnt so many things like creating engagement on social media platforms. The 1:1 with mentors were super helpful. I learnt how to create Instagram ads, identify goals & do competitor analysis- so many things.
There was a lot of interactive sessions with Mentors. The Menternship I completed gave me a new perspective to how work has to be done. I truly enjoyed working with real figures & actual industry case studies. 
My experience was great as I got a chance to explore subjects like Analytics which are difficult to look for. The Menternship allowed to get subject knowledge and see what goes behind the making and delivering of a product.
My experience was very useful as I learnt so much about Fleet Management & Digital Marketing connected to the real-world scenario. I learnt how to actually work with social media channels like IG & Facebook.
