The animation training industry in the city has witnessed tremendous growth, with a spurt in the number of students enrolling for courses over the past few years.
Training institutes attest to the trend. At Arena Multimedia, the number of students has grown by 50 per cent since last year. Webel Animation Academy, the only state government-sponsored animation institute in the country, has also done well since opening doors in 2004.
“We started with 50 students in 2004. Now, we train 300 students every year. The growth in number is testimony to the tremendous interest in the animation industry,” says Srimati Mukherjee, the project head of Webel Animation Academy.
The students have become more focused about what they want to learn. It is no longer a case of trying out new avenues. “Those who come to us know exactly what skills they want to pick up and why. They are taking up the subject because they have keen interest in it,” says R. Krishnan, global head, Arena Multimedia.
