Building Partnership

In the year 1995, the Chairman Dr. Subash Candra started Zee Institute of Creative Art (ZICA), the nation's first full-fledged Classical and Digital Animation Training Academy that trains youth in classical 2D and modern 3D animation. The past 21 years ZICA has nurtured some of the brightest talents in the world of animation. ZICA adopted a novel training style and is focused entirely on creating a stimulating environment for its students.

ZICA, with its state-of-the-art infrastructure, gives practical training in 2D Animation, 3D Animation, Visual Effects & Gaming, covering the stages of visualization, Pre-production, production and post-production. At ZICA, a lot of emphasis is laid on the principles of art and design and fundamentals of classical animation, while extracting the same knowledge to computer based Digital animation.

Today ZICA, with over 15 centres in cities including Mumbai, Pune, Bangalore, Noida, Lucknow, Bhubaneswar, Indore etc. emerges as young India's chosen partner to turn passion into profession.

Why Animation & VFX business?

• According to a report released by Ernst & Young, the higher education sector in India is expected to grow by 18% (CAGR) till 2020
• Animation & VFX industry itself is on an upswing: KPMG expects this sector to grow at 18.5% to reach 55.9 billion rupees by 2015. The growing demand for television content continues to be a key driver for growth of the animation & VFX industry

With the entry of global players such as Disney & Cartoon Network in India, and major Hollywood production houses constantly outsourcing their work to Indian studios, there is a huge gap between demand & supply of trained people to work in this industry.
