Animation professionals can work for educational programs, movies, television shows, news channels and advertisements. Some animators also work individually, providing specific graphic animation for websites or other projects. In the new world of computer games, graphic animators are used to develop characters, backgrounds and story lines in various games. Other areas of interest can be real estate firms, furniture designing, AutoCAD designing, creating virtual environment for fighter pilots, and in medical training especially for surgeons. One can also work as a freelancer or set up his or her own firm.
There are a number of animation firms in India, providing a large scope for job opportunities. These include Toonz Animation, Crest Communications, Maya Entertainment, Silvertoon Studio, UTV Toons, Zee Institute of Creative Arts, 2NZ Studios, Pentamedia Graphics, Prasad Studios, Acropetal, JadooWorks, Colour Chips, Heart Animation and Fusion Toonz to name a few.
