The Economic Times is carrying a report on the growing success of training schools across the country, which specialise in animation, game programming and modelling skills.

The employment potential for animation is massive. According to a recent Anderson study, the Indian multimedia and graphics industry is pegged at around $550 million and is expected to grow to $15 billion by 2008.

Within this market, the animation space is expected to grow to $2 billion in three years and employ as many as three lakh professionals.
