Creativity or imaginative thinking is found across all societies in the world. However, certain sections of the society with immense creative talent have remained untapped. With the expanding world of media, the demand for animators is on an all time rise. The ‘We Care We Share’ initiative of Zee Institute of Creative Art (ZICA) aims to bring creative talent to the forefront by introducing the world of animation to the children from the under-privilege section of the society.
The creative arm of Zee Learn, Zee Institute of Creative Art (ZICA) has dedicated the current month to the service of the community. Zee Institute of Creative Art (ZICA) is India’s first full-fledged Classical and Digital Animation Training with over 30 centers in more than 15 major cities, offering degree courses in Animation and Visual Effects, Animation Film Making and Visual Communication.
