Student Stories
What Our Animators Say
"The 12-Month Advanced track was exactly what I needed. I had some basic 3D knowledge from YouTube but needed structured training on character animation and rigging. The curriculum is genuinely industry-aligned — not theoretical. By Month 6, I had a showreel that impressed interviewers. Joined Tata Elxsi's animation division in Kolkata right after completing the course."
