Animation

Hi, Animation is one of the most sought-after streams in India these days. More and more demand of animators is emerging in various mediums such as movies, television, video games as well as industrial machines. The reason behind the growing popularity of animation courses is because of the Indian animation industry which is expected to reach the 23 billion mark by 2021, it is known to grow by 15%-20% per year.
Candidates can pursue a 2D or 3D animation course. However, going by the trend these days, it is advisable that one goes for a 3D animation course with some additional add-on and specs like graphics or gaming. Graphic and Animation is a very good choice and is quite upcoming.
Duration of such a course offered depends on college to college. Different colleges offer different types of animation courses and some are specific, some are short and some are very detailed. So, it ranges from 6 months to 3 years.
Many institutes, colleges and universities have geared up with course options like Bachelor Degree Course which has a duration of 3 years, after which Master Degree Course are there which have a duration of 2 years.
There are also Diploma & PG Diploma Courses which have a duration of 1 Year and Short-Term Courses have a duration of 6 Months.
It depends how deep you want to study this subject and for what purpose. Generally it is advisable to go for a degree course as they hold more value in long-term careers. One of the best courses offered for your option is B.A. (Honors) 3D Animation and Gaming.
The course has a duration of 3 years which has electives for graphic designing animation and gaming which is also a very upcoming field.
This is offered by many private universities. Some good university options are VIT University Vellore, National Institute of Design Ahmedabad, Amity University Mumbai, IILM University Gurugram, Frameboxx Animation and Visual Effects Mumbai, PA Inamdar College of Visual Effects, Design and Art Pune, Unitedworld Institute of Design Ahmedabad, Arena Animation, Maya Academy of Advanced Cinematics etc.
I would like to recommend IILM University Gurugram for this option as you will be able to display you work through end-of-term exhibitions along with reel and portfolio presentations. There is also concept of Liberal Education which lets you pursue your own passion and develop your skills. Please check their website for more information.

BFA (Fine Arts) and B Design, both courses have their own glory, Those who chose BFA are called Artist and they work more on aesthetics, Artist's work with an art gallery and put their own shows. Where a Designer gets a degree in B. Design and most of the time designers work on problem-solving, they make and develop new products. But if you SEE an artist as a person whose soul purpose is self-expression and designers' soul purpose to solve a problem for the many then they are different. At IILM School of Design & Fashion, we have made our curriculum looking into both the aspects of the need as an artist and designers, we have major-minor, subject choice/combination where you can have BFA degree as major and can learn design as well as a minor. And vise versa. IILM University offers B. Design Degree which is UGC recognized and there Major-Minor subject combination makes your skills more versatile. -

Hi, When we talk about the scope of a field we limit ourselves with the Word we are talking about "Fashion Design", "Graphic Design" or "Web Design". We should always explore where I can apply all the learning in every field. Each design and non-design field is connected to each other. For Example: Medicine- Chemical composition is designed by Biomedical scientists, Shape for the same is designed by a product designer and team of doctors, Sale of this medicine needs Graphic and digital medium for promotion. I will also suggest you just look at some job portals and SEE yourself there are lots of job opportunity but we don't have perfect people for the same. So, As a fashion designer, you gain a good insight as to what clothes will work with the Indian/Western/Global fashion market. The kind of colors, silhouettes, and designs that are trending, or which are predicted for the oncoming fashion season, is something fashion designers are privy to. He stylist also suggests the kind of makeup, accessories, hairstyles to make the overall look a smashing success. Stylists are also in demand for creating and organizing wedding trousseau, for models, photographers, influences, magazines, etc. IILM University will be the right choice for Design Courses, IILM University offers B. Design Degree which is UGC recognised, and there Major-Minor subject combination makes your skills more versatile. In the end, I would like to add a phrase with a little twist: "Jack of all trades, master of ONE"-
