National Center for Animation, Gaming and Visual effects to come up in Pune
March 28th, 2010
Following is an excerpt from a report in mydigitalfc.
Government is planning to set up a national centre for animation, gaming and visual effects to meet shortage of skilled professionals in the field.
A sum of Rs 52 crore has been set aside by the Planning Commission for the purpose.
Sources in the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting said the proposed centre would promote technical talent in the entertainment sector through specific courses such as animation, digitisation and visual effects.
The centre, which could come up at Pune, where the Film and Television Institute of India is situated, is being set up for meeting the shortage of skilled professionals in the field.
… With the Indian animation and gaming industry expected to grow, the I&B ministry is said to have engaged a consultant to prepare a report on the human resource requirement in this sector.
… Although there are several private animation-training institutes, apart from a few government-run colleges having animation curriculum, India, as of today, has only a handful of institutes teaching high-end animation techniques, sources say.
