About This Programme

Your Fast Track into 3D & VFX

This programme focuses on providing the required knowledge to start your career in the spectacular Media & Entertainment industry. It works as a stepping stone of your professional journey — built for students who want to get job-ready fast without a 3-year degree commitment.

Animation and VFX are an integral part of movies, web series, TVCs and many other broadcasting formats. They help narrate storytelling in an enhanced way. It has become a must-have tool for every Director to properly execute their conceived ideas into reality.

In Module 2, you choose your career goal — 3D or VFX — and select one specialization track based on your passion and a one-to-one discussion with your trainer. AI tools are woven throughout all three modules, from Generative AI in Module 1 to Runway ML and Kling AI in your specialization.

FAQ

Common Questions

The B.Sc. is a 3-year UGC-recognised university degree that covers the full pipeline breadth — it ends with a formal degree credential. The Specialization Programme is a 24-month industry-focused course designed to get you job-ready faster, with a narrower deep-dive into your chosen track. It suits students who want to enter the industry quickly or aren’t looking for a university degree specifically. The Specialization also has a more accessible eligibility — 10th pass onwards, versus 12th for the degree.

You choose your track after completing Module 1 (12 months). By that point, you’ve been exposed to the full foundation — Maya, After Effects, Photoshop, 3ds Max, Pre-Production, and Generative AI — so you have a clear sense of what excites you. Your trainer then has a one-to-one session with you to help you pick the right track based on your strengths, interests, and the market.

Yes. Unlike the degree programmes which require 12th pass, the Specialization Programme accepts students from 10th standard onwards. There is no requirement for a specific stream (Science, Commerce, or Arts). No prior design or animation experience is needed — Module 1 starts from absolute foundations.

AI is integrated across both modules. In Module 1: ChatGPT, Google Gemini, Leonardo AI, Midjourney, and ComfyUI for VFX — for creative ideation, image generation, and prompt engineering for animation. In Module 2: Runway ML, Kling AI, Eleven Labs, Clipchamp, and Luma AI for VFX — for AI-assisted video generation, voice synthesis, and production acceleration. These are the tools studios are actively integrating right now.

Yes — you receive a Frameboxx Certificate of Completion on graduation. The programme also produces a portfolio and showreel (via Module 2 Portfolio Development and Module 3 Short Film) that is often more valuable to studios than a certificate alone. If you want a university degree credential alongside, consider upgrading to the B.Sc. programme — our counsellors can advise on the pathway.

All four tracks lead to strong job outcomes — the best track is the one that matches your genuine interest. That said, Roto, Paint & Compositing tends to have the highest immediate hiring volume since VFX studios always need large rotoscopy and compositing teams. 3D Asset Creation and Rigging & Animation are in demand from both game studios and film. FX & Dynamics has fewer openings but commands a higher salary premium for specialists. Your trainer’s one-to-one session will factor in current market demand when recommending your track.
