IICT Launches India’s First On-Demand Introduction to AI-Powered AVGC Course

India, 22nd september 2025:In a landmark step toward merging creativity with technology, the Indian Institute of Creative Technologies (IICT), a Government of India initiative, has announced the launch of its first-ever “Introduction to AI-Powered AVGC” course. This one-month program, set to begin on September 26, 2025, aims to equip learners with foundational knowledge and hands-on skills in Artificial Intelligence as applied across Animation, VFX, Gaming, Comics, and Live-Action content production.

Vishwas Deoskar, CEO of IICT said, “Though we already offer long-term programs in AI and creative technologies, the overwhelming demand and frequent queries from learners prompted us to introduce this short-term course. AI is no longer a future concept, it’s actively reshaping how stories are told, games are designed, and visual effects are created. This course is not just about tools; it’s about preparing the next generation of creators for the AI-driven future of media and entertainment.”

The program has been carefully curated for fresh graduates, AVGC students, and career switchers seeking to transition into the rapidly expanding creative economy. Over the course of four weeks, participants will be introduced to AI applications in areas such as character animation, comics, VFX, and immersive media workflows. Along with gaining exposure to AI-generated assets for live action, animation, and VR experiences, learners will benefit from industry-driven masterclasses and practical sessions led by veteran professionals from leading studios and production houses.

Every participant will also receive a certification from IICT upon successful completion of the course.

Classes will be offered in two flexible formats. The on-campus program will be held at the IICT Mumbai campus on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, with four-hour sessions each day, at a fee of INR9,900. For those who prefer remote learning, online live sessions will be conducted on the same days for two hours per day, at a fee of INR4,900.

With limited seats available for this first batch, IICT has already seen strong interest and registrations are filling quickly, underscoring the growing demand for AI-focused creative training in India. As the media and entertainment sector continues to embrace technology at a rapid pace, this program offers a timely opportunity for learners to step into the future of storytelling and production with confidence.
