Yes. The Diploma in VFX Plus is open to students from any stream after 12th. The course begins with
filmmaking and visual fundamentals from scratch. A passion for films, storytelling, and technology is
all you need — the technical skills are built through the program.
A showreel is a short compilation (typically 1–3 minutes) of your best VFX work — the primary tool VFX
studios use to evaluate and hire artists. Unlike other professions where a CV gets you an interview,
in VFX, the showreel is the interview. Every project in this diploma is designed to contribute toward
a graduation showreel that meets industry expectations.
India is one of the world's largest VFX outsourcing hubs — studios like Prime Focus, Dneg India, Tata
Elxsi, DQ Entertainment, and hundreds of smaller post-production houses work on Hollywood films, OTT
originals for Netflix and Prime Video, and Indian cinema productions. The explosion of OTT content has
created sustained, growing demand for VFX artists at all levels. India's animation & VFX industry is
valued at over ₹20,000 crore and growing at 15% annually.
Yes. Rotoscopy, compositing, and matte painting are among the most common freelance VFX services —
