New Delhi: Toonz Animation India (www.toonzanimationindia.com), recently ranked in the top 10 animation studios in the world, has decided to deploy the internationally trained and experienced manpower at its disposal for training activities, in a bid to meet the acute shortfall of trained personnel in India even as the animation industry grows at a rapid pace.

Toonz President and CEO Bill Dennis says Toonz Animation School, providing fully intensive training of international standard by a faculty of expatriates, will be launched beginning the mid of May 2003. “Those who enrol for the Toonz programme will also be provided an opportunity to work in real animation on international projects as part of the course content. They will also have the unique opportunity to learn and work in development and pre-production.

“The programme will provide job opportunities to many. Currently, there is a severe gap between the demand and supply of trained personnel in the animation segment in India as the animation industry is growing very fast. The avenues available for training to match this growth are limited. That’s why we have decided to enter the scene and open a channel that will provide trained talents on a continuous basis to the industry.”

Toonz Animation School will conduct programmes in three areas:

  1. Animation — six-month course (four months basic training and two months on-the-job training)
  2. Layout — six-month course (four months basic training and two months on-the-job training)
  3. In-between/Clean up — four-month course (two months basic training and two months on-the-job training)

Only a limited number of seats are available for all the three courses.
