How to choose the right animation institute to jump-start your career

One of the most high demand courses in the field of information technology is animation and multimedia coures. With Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) in India taking off, the demand for optimized websites with high loading capacity has increased ten-fold. Hence, it is no surprise that animation and multi-media courses are eagerly sought after engineering degrees. With this comes the requirement of producing top quality animators and 3D designers. With a wide range of industries opening up to offer high-quality animation classes, animation institutes have sprung up around India overnight.

But the toughest part lies in choosing the right animation colleges for realizing your dream. Of late, plenty of animation institutes have sprung across India hard-selling themselves as the best 2d animation institutes or top 3D animation institutes. The peaked interest in this career field means that animation colleges can now be found beyond tier I and tier II cities. Students who are keem to make a career in animation courses should carefully study the programme offered, get details about the faculty, whether they staff professional trainers and what is the placement rate in the animation colleges.


There are plenty of certifications and degrees offered in various disciplines. Students can opt for 2D/3D animation courses either through undergraduate degree programs, pursue a further specialisation with post-graduate programs or get short-term diplomas. There are plenty of animation colleges and universities that offer rudimentary skills in animation. A case in point is, a student can take-up a short-term certificate course in animation immediately after completing his/her schooling, that is (10+2). Students who are keen to make a career in animation can get specialization in some particular area of animation technologies. Most students these days pursue diplomas in visual effects (VFX). One of the highly sought after course is MAYA – a short-term certificate course in MAYAm which is a specific form of animation application that one can easily enrol for at any top animation institutes in India.

However, there are very few animation-institutes that offer specialized Post graduate courses in animation. It has become tough for students to find top private animation-institutes that offer PG courses. Wiztoonz, a premier animation institute in India offers PG courses for Multimedia and Multimedia Technologies. The classes are wholly project-based and are conducted by respected industry instructors in a simulated production atmosphere. The career programs at Wiztoonz are carefully designed for creating tomorrow's professionals. The unique curriculum are designed to meet the international industry standards. As a student you can expect to work with highly skilled mentors, who are themselves working professionals, dedicated to mentor you as an employable professional, in inspiring studio spaces.
