what is better to pursue bfa(animation) or b.sc(animation)?

This could depend on the particular course you choose since even within the same degree the coverage would vary. So study the course curriculum before you choose it. BFA has one extra year so there's more to learn for you. Alternatively if you go for bachelors in animation you would have one year extra left to do some specialization or professional training. A good mentor and wise selection of courses with a good school, followed by diligent learning, would get you a head start in your career. However, you must check your suitability for this field. Animation is an art form and a very demanding career. It has ample opportunities for the creatively talented people. Opportunities lie in animation design, game design, graphics, storyboarding, 3d modelling, texturing and lighting, Dynamics and VFX and of course animation (2D and 3D). However, choosing between these must be done after seeing your performance in each of these. Typically you should have good sketching skills to be able to make a sound career in this (if you work hard you can improve your drawing skills tremendously). Nothing but your innermost talent and passion should lead you to the course and the institute you choose. Go speak to people over there and see if you like their philosophy and they change your perspective.Try their website for more details. Also remember that Animation requires good mentoring. Typically go for a school which offers all the information including faculty on their website.

Hello Abby35979 Very Good question. There is a lot of confusion in the students related to degrees in animation. As per my views B.Sc. in Animation include more of digital side of animation where you learn more software and application along with drawing and sketching skills where is BFA in animation is 4 year Fine Art and Animation course. There are very few colleges running BFA Animation . so most of the students having Science background in 12 choose B.SC. in Animation. In our own college 95% students having 12th Science background take admission in B.Sc. in Animation. As far as choosing animation or gaming in concern is totally depend on your inner inclination . .Animation is very huge pool and so the gaming. But in my views going for gaming with a sound background of Animation is much successful and good plan. If you have finished your 12th you can now apply of B.Sc Animation in colleges like Visual Element Design Academy. Please check out for more details <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.veda-edu.com/course/bsc-in-multimedia-animation/" style='word-wrap:break-word;'>http://www.veda-edu.com/course/bsc-in-multimedia-animation/</a> Thanks and All the best
