Diploma in Design for Animation, Game and Film

This course trains the student in the art of pre production. The basic requirement for undergoing this course is good art knowledge, a strong sense of design and a keen sense of observation. Being a very intensive course, a strong motivation to improve and a lot of interest in the various art forms is a must along with a mind to apply technology to art. An added plus point in pursuing this course would be a good reading habit.

The total duration of the course is 12 months.
