Of course, you can. The basic eligibility requirement to pursue a PG degree or Diploma course is to have a bachelor's degree only. Irrespective of the discipline you got your degree from, you are eligible to pursue a PG degree or Diploma course in VFX. Though you'll need to crack entrance exams for some PG degree courses.

Visual Effects, or (in short) VFX, is a digital manipulation of visuals where you can turn them into impossible scenarios. The consumption of visual content has significantly increased in the last 5-6 years, especially the CGI content. VFX allowed filmmakers to create a fictional world and mythical characters, which gave life to their fictional stories. 

Visual Effects are realistic, cost-effective, and loved by viewers. Cartoons and anime were always there with a huge fan base, but the integration of VFX and CGI into the cinema broadened the viewership.
