Career course in ADVFX Plus (Advanced Program in Visual Effects Plus)

Were you surprised by the action sequences of Krrish 3 & Ra.One? Did you imagine being in space while watching Gravity or on the battle field in 300: Rise of an Empire? These were the result of visual effects (VFX) technology and VFX artists. VFX is the integration of live - action and computer generated imagery to create environments, which look realistic and believable to the audiences.

Visual effects today plays a key role in feature films, television programmes, animation, video games, commercials and almost all forms of entertainment. The Indian VFX industry reached Rs. 9.3 billion in 2013.* With the large number of movies being made in Bollywood and across regional languages, the VFX industry is projected to reach Rs. 14 billion by 2015. This fast-growing industry demands trained and skilled VFX artists who could work on national and international projects and bring the director’s vision to life.
