One of India’s leading animation training institutes, MAAC has tied up with Toon Club. Both the entities will jointly form a new course for kids and the new joint venture will be co-branded as ‘MAAC Junior - Toon Club’.

With a vision to introduce animation and creativity at an early age, MAAC will leverage its wide presence in India, Middle East and Nepal to take Toon Club’s curriculum all over India.

Ronald D’Mello, Managing Director and CEO of Maya Entertainment shared with AnimationXpress.com, “The idea behind introducing this package is to inculcate creativity and artistic talent in kids who can become endowed animators in their future. There will be the synergies in every aspect including knowledge sharing, administration and course module, amongst others.”

“For the new course we would be forming a completely new package in terms of faculty and content which will be targeted towards kids in the age group of seven to 15,” D’Mello added. Further information about the course will be divulged at the official launch, slated for the last week of May.

Tehzeeb Khurana, founder of Toon Club will be participating in the new venture as the Technical Anchor, while Krishnaswamy of MAAC will be the curriculum co-developer. Kireet Khurana (co-founder of Toon Club) comes on board as creative advisor for the venture.

Added Tehzeeb, “Our tie-up with MAAC enables us to scale Toon Club at an all India level, possibly beyond something that we have envisaged all along as the natural next level progression for Toon Club. With this venture we hope to realise Toon Club’s true potential.”

Shelley Page, Head of International Outreach for DreamWorks Animation and member of Academic Advisory Board at MAAC was quoted in a press release issued by the company, as saying, “I am very impressed with the MAAC Junior initiative envisaged by MAAC in collaboration with Toon Club and I think this will be a really important contribution to the level of artistic awareness among the junior age group throughout India.”

Toon Club is a division of 2nz Animation dedicated to teaching the art of animation to children and is a pioneer in teaching animation at schools in India. Toon Club’s courses are designed along international lines where students work with various media which includes 2D (Cel/classical hand-drawn), 3D(Clay animation), Stop-motion/ Pixilation, Paper Cut-out, Beads, etc. and a gamut of subjects which include optical devices, persistence of vision, principles of animation and physics amongst others.
