Khandekar, director, Nvidia, Pune
centre and chairman, animation and
gaming committee, MCCIA, said, “This
is our campaign to create awareness
about the animation industry. There
are a lot of avenues that this
industry has opened up. We want the
young generation to have a look at it
and take it up as a career.
We
will have programmes like drawing and
acting workshops, gaming corners and
demos in animation techniques. Acting
workshops are important for animators

emotionally believable characters in
their animations and games,” he said.
