We will today tell you 8 reasons about why one should not go for degree in animation and vfx (BSC in animation and vfx, BA in animation and vfx); not just that we will also give you the best solution that will not only save your huge time and money but will also build up your great career. So here is the list of reasons for not doing 3D animation and VFX degree.<\/p><ul><li><strong>TIME CONSUMING<\/strong> &#8211; Degree courses in vfx and animation are 3 years course after 12th standard. To learn VFX from basics to advanced level 1 year is more than enough however, as per the govt mandate if any institute or college has to award a degree to any students then they must have to provide a 3 years course duration. Student end up taking these degrees in vfx courses thinking that the degree will provide them the job however they fail to understand that VFX is a skill-based career and has got nothing to do with the degree qualification of an individual. So, one can learn advance VFX in 1 years\u2019 time and can save money and most importantly time. In these degree courses one spends huge time and money and actually learn basics of vfx.<\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-f0dfa0d elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"f0dfa0d\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-62f2125\" data-id=\"62f2125\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0a65b99 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"0a65b99\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img width=\"273\" height=\"185\" src=\"https:\/\/openslatevfx.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/unnamed.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/openslatevfx.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/unnamed.jpg 273w, https:\/\/openslatevfx.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/unnamed-150x102.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 273px) 100vw, 273px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6cd030d elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"6cd030d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<ul><li><b>BASIC NATURE OF THE COURSE \u2013 <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">VFX is a skill-based career and as a student or a parent, one must look at the syllabus that is being taught and not look at the degree that is being awarded.

Lengthy time duration and generic nature of the course creates confusion in mind of students about their movement ahead in this field. VFX is a huge field and its pipeline consists of various departments that work together in liaison to deliver one output. Each of these departments (viz. Concept, Modelling, Texturing, Rigging, Animation, Lighting, FX and Compositing) are huge and need highly trained specialist to deliver a quality output as per client requirement. No one can learn all of these specializations altogether in entire lifetime duration and having said that even if some one learns then too that person will eventually work in only one department so learning all of it is not recommended. So, the courses wherein they try to teach students everything (all specializations) is incorrect. Advance specialized learning can build up better career.<\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-8550f2e elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"8550f2e\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-68ef183\" data-id=\"68ef183\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7b2e892 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"7b2e892\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img width=\"512\" height=\"181\" src=\"https:\/\/openslatevfx.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/unnamed.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/openslatevfx.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/unnamed.png 512w, https:\/\/openslatevfx.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/unnamed-300x106.png 300w, https:\/\/openslatevfx.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/unnamed-150x53.png 150w, https:\/\/openslatevfx.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/unnamed-320x113.png 320w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-19ede0b elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"19ede0b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<ul><li><b>DEVELOPS INDUSTRY SURVIVOR ATTITUDE \u2013 <\/b>Many students who pass out from animation and vfx degree courses take job as a graphic designer\u00a0 \u00a0 due to poor VFX training and no placement support from the institutes.

As a result of this, students after completing degree look for an advance course wherein again, they have to spend a year or so in training and start job after that. Some students after completing BSC in\u00a0 \u00a0 animation or BA in animation go for MSC in animation which is again a generic course and a wrong choice which costs them money and time with less\u00a0 or no output. So, if a student joins job in a production house after completing Degree in VFX then he is delayed by 2 years for starting a job; student if starts job after completing MSC in animation then that student has delayed his career by 4 years. Student needs to understand that its better to start working early since VFX is a skill-based industry. Higher degree doesn\u2019t give you a higher position or higher package. It all depends\u00a0 upon the skill and experience of a person.
