ICAT is the First Digital Media College in India which has obtained ISO 9001:2008 Certification. At ICAT, the prime objective is to provide excellent and comprehensive education in "Digital Media".
In the year 2003, the growing business opportunities in India in Animation, Visual FX and Gaming had created a need for high quality professionals having skills to handle International projects with ease. Organizations like NASSCOM were advocating the need for Full Time Specialized training to fulfill this requirement.
ICAT Image College of Arts, Animation & Technology was then established in 2004 with a goal to provide holistic, advanced and specialized education in various Digital Design and Media disciplines. It began by offering full time Post Graduate Diplomas in 3D Animation, Visual FX and Game Development. The shortage of specialized Game Designers paved the way for the launch of Game Design curriculum in 2006.
The College aspires to provide high standard of education. ICAT offers Under Graduate & Post Graduate degree programs partnering with Bharathiar University. Also ICAT offers internationally recognized Under Graduate degrees, validated by the Birmingham City University, UK.

'Art director' is an impressive job title that a lot of people yearn for, but can mean different things in different organizations. The job of art director exists in a number of creative fields, including advertising, marketing, publishing, film and television, web design, and video games. It generally involves managing a team of designers working on a creative project, but the degree of responsibility and autonomy can vary.
Becoming an art director involves more than just having the right design portfolio and creative resumes. To get the gen, first we asked a pair of leading art directors to share their thoughts and experiences on the role. Following that you'll find five pro tips for becoming an art director.

Graphic design in simple terms can be defined as the art or skill of combining text and pictures in advertisements, magazines, or books. The designers create visual concepts, using computer software or by hand, to communicate ideas that inspire, inform, and captivate consumers. They develop the overall layout and production design for various applications such as advertisements, brochures, magazines, and corporate reports.
Since this is a very skilled job, you can have a better career prospects only if you have had a good experience. So, it is necessary to take up a job once you complete a course in web designing. You may work for 2-3 years and once you gain sufficient knowledge and experience, you can then go for a Master's degree which would increase your chances of getting a good job as well as with a good salary. It is necessary to improve your skills a lot as this is a field where more creative and highly skilled people are in demand.

There are two kinds of careers. One is based on an understanding of theory which is focused on education and another one is based on the practice of theory which is skill based. All right brain activities including sports & creative career fall in the Right brain domain. For careers that are based on the practice of your skills, degrees become secondary and in fact come in your way of acquiring knowledge.
There is a need for students of Creative Careers to enter Mentoring programs to hone their skills. Alternatively they can learn Skills via Certifications which allow for anyone to teach as long as they are expert in their art. Now this freedom does make the learner's task difficult as ungoverned academies have to be judged directly by the students. So be careful while choosing a mentor or an institute.
You could do your own research to create a list of places you may want to learn, whether they are in your city or not. Then visit their websites and research about them & even call them and talk to them. Try their website for more details. Typically go to a school which offers all the information including faculty & placement track record on their website. Now shortlist some you want to visit. Do not hesitate to travel - this is about your life and career. After visiting those take a decision for yourself.
