VFX

Hi lalit,
Visual effects (commonly shortened to Visual F/X or VFX) involve the integration of live-action footage and generated imagery to create environments which look realistic, but would be dangerous, costly, or simply impossible to capture on film.
For instance, a movie that shows the hero jumping off the ground and flying into the air, is created using VFX. Almost every single movie these days uses VFX. Similarly in game design, there are certain set of backgrounds, or stunts performed by the character that maybe beyond reality, hence the use of VFX.

Rajat, job security happen when you take some insecure education like a Degree. When you are directly acquiring skills that are required by the market where does the question of job security come up? Unless of course one is asking whether someone would continue to employ you if you have the skills, surely they would. In fact skills are something that can't be overlooked, where as administrative jobs roles are always replaceable, and not only by people but also by software. What is your job security when the software becomes your manager and clerk. So then only skilled people would be left - that the world we are today. So go get the right skill from a genuine institute. Do not concentrate too much on salary. After experience the salary can be anything literally (of course with some alignment with your experience). too much thought on salary would defocus you. and any numbers i give here would stick to your mind and comparison with those throughout your life would be inevitable. it is best to know that you'd earn somewhat proportionate to your talent and risk taking ability. Wish you the best for your career. Remember, your Career is a resultant of your knowledge combined with your passion and expression ability.

Mayank, if you have the funds you can look at the option of studying abroad at schools like VFS, Vanarts, or go for a degree course. studying abroad in Animation and VFX is great but you would need to understand their structure and how it works. If you want advice on that I can guide you and put you across to the best schools.You can call me and discuss if you like. However, these schools look for a good portfolio in drawing the most, and some areas can make do with a digital portfolio if good. You would need someone to take you through this since if the portfolio is rejected you would spend another year remaking it. It takes around a year to get a good portfolio in place unless you are very talented. Wish you the best for your career.
