About MAAC Kukatpally in MIG-215, Satyasai Nilayam, 3rd floor, KPHB Colony Main road, Hyderabad

The centre will give students an opportunity to make animation their forte as it is a growing industry with a growing demand for skilled professionals and secondly, to cater to the influx of post production projects from abroad. With the addition of the new centre, MAAC now has 84+ centres pan India.

According to a report by KPMG, the VFX and post- production industry in India is valued at Rs 44.9 Billion this year which is a steady improvement from Rs 39.7 Billion a year ago.

Industry analysts also believe that India’s animation industry is expected to double in size in next five years as Hollywood studios are prepping to tap a large pool of low-cost, English-speaking animators who are familiar with Western culture. A recent report also revealed that the animation, VFX and post-production industry in India has grown from Rs 4,200 crore in 2013 to Rs 5,080 crore today. The CG sector is likely to grow substantially at a CAGR of about 30 per cent and animation by about 15-18 per cent.

Mr. Shajan Samuel Sr. Vice President MAAC said, “With the Indian animation industry witnessing a growth of 34% CAGR (since 2009) and an expected hiring rate of 30%, experts predict that the industry will face a deficit of skilled animators in the future. This means that there is great scope and urgent need to accelerate skill development in the animation industry. For this, we need to eliminate digital gaps, which is only possible by empowering students with the knowhow of latest trends and technology used in the industry. The new centre would provide further impetus to our aim of empowering students through superior training, extensive curriculum and lead them to become specialists in the world of 3D Animation and VFX.
