The Inception Story

Vikas Kumar founded Digitoonz in 2009 with only eight members at the initial launch. He observed the industry and arrived at the conclusion that North India does not have a core animation studio. Hence, taking the leap of faith, against all odds, he set up Digitoonz. In its present nine-year run, the studio’s number eight has transformed into a larger number. Digitoonz is since growing from 2D animation to 3D animation and into gaming as well.

With leadership qualities in his blood, leading an animation studio was all in his mind throughout his years of working. By the year 2009, after paying close attention to the industry, he started a small team with Nadim Akhtar- Co-founder- and named it Digitoonz. Since the institution, the studio has suffered various bumps along the journey road, but Vikas’ principles and hardworking leadership has steered the ship of Digitoonz towards the excellence of success. Accessing the bumpy yet successful ride, Vikas asserts the famous line, “Success usually comes to those who are too busy to be looking for it”.

Apart from Digitoonz, Vikas has taken step towards education as well. He has expanded his empire by opening an ITI institute, named Dikshant ITI and a school, Layford International School. He has also launched a YouTube channel called PariTV to make learning fun for kids and toddlers.

Keeping Keen Eyes on the Industry

According to the studio, Indian animation will have strong growth in expected time. Earlier, majority of the animation companies were dependent merely on the service work but now the production of local content is very much in. Consequently, it contributes to many free zones to the animation studios to promote their own compositions. By carrying out the same and broadcasting it on independent networks like YouTube, these studios can monetize their content and earn from it. In addition, if the firms need to continue producing the service work than it has to provide a superb quality of production as the standards of animation is expanding by each passing time.

Another significant point that the studio marks out is that the animation institutes should cooperate in cultivating valuable resources for the future of animation in India. The resources are not as per the expected standards whereas these artists are enough capable to perform if they have been trained in expert level details.

Comprehending the Latest Technologies

The enterprise used to work on the conventional animation techniques, however, now, it is practicing the latest technology i.e. Toon Boom Harmony. By practicing the latest version, the inventors conserve time and ease himself or herself in achieving the animation. As the rig-based characters in the software fasten up the production, the composers recover up to fifty percent of the time and assist in preserving the pipeline, eliminating the need for manual maintenance required.
