Is there any scope in VFX?

After the super success of Bahubali, I think you have got your answer. As per FICCI-KPMG Report By 2020, the worth of the Indian VFX industry is expected to be Rs. 9000 crores. Hollywood, Bollywood, TV shows, ads - each of these use visual effects to produce high-quality output. From car blasts in a live-action film to leaves blowing in an animated movie, all the effects are designed and created by special effects artists. You can be one of these highly-paid, in-demand, talented artists. If you learn Animation & VFX, following are the job roles available to you- VFX Artist Compositor Pre-Viz Artist Roto & Paint Artist Matchmove Artist Tracking Artist 3D Animator 3D Modeler Rigging Artist Texturing Artist Lighting Artist Rendering Artist Storyboard Artist Graphic Designer Video Editor Dynamics artist, lighting artist, 3D matte painter, match-moving artist, 3D tracking artist etc.

India is a media and entertainment savvy nation and is also produces the highest number of feature films in the world with over 1000 films every year. Every film has minimum 50-100 VFX shots to maximum 4000-5000 shots. VFX is a laborious and highly skilled work. For a film like Bahubali, it took two years to complete the VFX with over 600 artists working on it. So, you can imagine the number of people required and the volume of work which needs to be done from time to time. I am just talking about films.
