Neelu Kapoor (Indiaskills Graphic Design Technology Jury) and Founder SXILL mentioned that everyone at SXILL was really excited about WAVES and especially about Arjun Kumar, a student of SXILL who was nominated for Best Animation Award by ASIFA Awards of Excellence. Our training has been recognized and awarded across Europe and Russia besides other nationals and it one the most viable ways of learning animation today. We take these awards from England as a Global Acceptance of our Brand. This helps students in Europe and America to have an alternative that is more value for money. We surely understand that the students across the world share the same issues of financial burden while studying and are doing our bit in easing that for them.

“Arjun Kumar has been an exceptional student and has worked very hard to reach where he is today. He had to do part time jobs to sustain himself, and we helped him out at every stage. Today the result is for everyone to see. I wish him the best at WAVES Awards Finals. We have a program for freshers which helps them identify their strong areas before starting with Upskilling. This helps them save on wasting their time on wrong specialization. We thank our peers at Lakshya Digital, Technicolor, Micros, and other studios who have always help us groom the talent.” says Neelu Kapoor, Founder, SXILL Chandigarh.

Arjun Kumar shared his experience of Training at SXILL, “I had personal mentoring at every step of my learning at SXILL. Although it is a pleasant surprise for me to be nominated for India’s Best Animator Award, since I have learnt alongside many animators at SXILL who were as good as me. This nomination is also thanks to my Animation Mentor Mangat Chauhan who is the ex-Creative (Animation) Director of Motu Patlu. His guidance has made sure that all learners at SXILL come up to the same level. When my friends at other institutes are struggling to find jobs, SXILL has helped many of us to find jobs at top studios.”

Congratulations to all the Student & Professionals officially nominated under the WAVES Awards of Excellence.

SXILL has a very detailed Training Program in Animation Upskilling comparable with the best in the world. Many Alumnus of SXILL today work at the highest level at Top Indian and International Animation Studios like Framestore, Dreamworks, 88Pictures, Xentrix, Technicolor, PhilmCGI, Assemblage, Cosmos Maya, Greengold, Micros, Lakshya Digital, Digitoonz etc.
