Where Artistic Imagination Meets Intelligent Innovation
Clear FX Academy was born from a bold vision, to redefine creative education in India by bridging the gap between academia and the animation, VFX, gaming, and XR industries. In a world rapidly transformed by Generative AI and immersive technologies, we saw the urgent need to prepare students not just to keep up, but to lead the next wave of storytelling, design, and digital experiences.
Our Mission
To empower the next generation of creative-tech professionals by delivering studio-grade, AI-integrated, and future-ready education in AI & Emerging Technologies and Animation, Visual Effects, Gaming, Comics, and XR (AVGC-XR).
From a Studio Dream to a Studio Academy
Unlike conventional training institutes, Clear FX Academy was conceptualized as a Studio Academy, a space that replicates the real-world infrastructure, workflows, and pressures of a production studio. We partnered with renowned studios, creators, and industry leaders, to design programs that mirror the demands of high-performance creative teams. Our facilities, our curriculum, and our culture are all crafted to ensure that education feels like production, not theory.
Empowering Artistic Intelligence
At the heart of Clear FX Academy is the belief that creativity is a powerful force, one that must be nurtured alongside emerging technologies like Generative AI, virtual production, and real-time rendering. That’s why our students learn not only traditional skills in design, animation, VFX and Gaming, but also how to collaborate with AI tools and adapt to future workflows.
We call this mindset “Artistic Intelligence”, the ability to use intuition, emotion, and aesthetics to guide innovation and impact.
