VFX

If you would have asked this question a few years ago, then I honestly would've said that there is little to no scope when it comes to animation and VFX courses in India. However, in present times, I absolutely must say that this once limited scope has expanded spontaneously. Movies like Baahubali show exactly how big the animation and VFX industry has grown. One such field that you probably don't know about has to be the outsourcing of animation and VFX requirements to India, which is one of the many reasons why this scope will simply not decrease. Now, we must say that there are a number of institutes that provide you with acceptable animation andVFX courses in India, but if you want to rise above the usual hubbub of mediocrity and learn from one of the few quality institutes, then we must say that the Zee Institute of Creative Arts (or ZICA for short) is one such institute that will help you progress by leaps and bounds.

Hi Arvind,
There are different ways to get into the VFX industry and not all of them require an education. However, one criteria in common with recruiting departments across the board-a set of skills, which includes technical problem solving skills, a good eye for detail, creative bent of mind, basic drawing skills (so a background in fine art would be great, although not necessary), a solid understanding of photography and the interplay of light, color and shadow. These are the best institutes for learning VFX in India:
Anibrain XDI, Pune
DSK SupInfocom, Pune
National Institute of Design (NID), Ahmedabad
Whistling Woods International Institute, Mumbai
Maya Academy of Advanced Cinematics (MAAC)
Frameboxx Animation & Visual Effects
Xplora Design Skool (XDS)
Raffles Millennium International, Bengaluru
Industrial Design Centre (IDC), Mumbai.
