Remember what it was like growing up? Jaws agape at some spectacular video games, animated films and visual effects in Hollywood blockbusters, wondering how someone could create such spectacular visuals! The general consensus was that if something was spectacular it was made abroad. Fair assumption. But well, that’s no longer the case.
If you’re wondering where India stands in terms of matching developed countries in terms of the visual effects, animation and game design industry – you’re in for a pleasant surprise!
Little known fact: India is a growing hub for animation and VFX
Previously, Indian artists would travel abroad to work in major Hollywood studios, now it is the major studios that come to India for their visual effects and animation requirements met. While this might sound astonishing, looking at the bigger picture, it makes a lot of sense.
Here are a few reasons why this trend is only going to grow:
To top it all off, outsourcing animation and VFX to India gives studios access to a young, creative, talented and enthusiastic workforce!
