MAAC took shape in 2001 with an in-house facility at MEL and a parallel setup in North India with the intent to provide high quality education in 3D Animation and Visual Effects. In a short span of six years, we've grown up to a network of more than 70 academic centers spread across India and Middle East. We also have the largest number of Autodesk certified training centers (ATCs) as well as certified instructors in India.

More recently, our courses have earned the quality validation from the University of Cambridge International Examinations (CIE). The training programmes at MAAC are accompanied by live projects and regular workshops and seminars conducted by experts from across the animation industry.

We take great pride in our intuitive teaching philosophy which is centered around concepts and techniques so as to lay a strong foundation for a practical techno-artist who is well versed in both technology and concepts.

Advantages of studying at Maya Academy of Advanced Cinematics

MAAC holds an edge over any institute in the same field because of its USP, which revolves around CREATIVITY and PEDAGOGY. The three-fold MAAC advantage revolves around the following benefits:

Creative Team :
MAAC is promoted and run by a team of creative professionals who thrive on their imagination and inspiration. Moreover the instructors are industry experienced.

End Users :
MAYA Entertainment, the parent group is the real life end user of all that is being offered by MAAC - both in terms of the inputs (the software) and the outputs (the trained students - since the really talented ones are absorbed in the organization itself). Also MAAC is one of the very few institutes that offer Character Animation.

Real Life Environment:
Because of the business constituents of MEL, the students are trained in an On-the-job environment. Hence, the training also incorporates additional intricate elements like camera angles, storyboards, editing. MAAC's competitors, due to infrastructural constraints cannot recreate this On-the-job environment.
