This is How Toonz Academy Started

Toonz Academy, with its proven experience through the years, is dedicated to bring the best out of our students, and grooming them to become highly sought-after entertainment and media professionals.

Toonz Academy is the training division of the award-winning animation studio and the global kids and family entertainment company Toonz Media Group.  Toonz is a pioneering studio in India, having produced one of the earliest animated TV series in India – Tenali Raman, the first animated film – The return of Hanuman, as well as the first digital animated Malayalam feature film – Swami Ayyappan.

Toonz Academy is dedicated to helping students unlock their full potential and reach their highest career goals in the media and entertainment industry.

Established in 2002, Toonz Academy has a top-class campus at Technopark, Trivandrum. The Academy offers both short and long-term career-oriented courses in 2D and 3D animation, besides Graphic Multimedia and Visual Effects. All supported with the most-modern software.

The Academy has a pool of highly experienced faculty members, who have brought out the best in our students and turned them into highly skilled techno-creative professionals. The Academy is proud to note that most of our alumni are now well placed in some of the best studios across the globe.

The Academy continues its fast pace of growth and has plans to expand its operation to West Africa, Middle East, and Southeast Asia soon.

Industry networking

Exciting opportunities to interact with internationally and nationally renowned industry professionals.

The future of storytelling is no longer confined to screens.
It is immersive, interactive, and engineered.

We established this academy with a clear conviction: creative education must evolve beyond classrooms and into production environments. Talent today cannot be trained in isolation from industry. It must be shaped within it.

As a production house, we understand the discipline behind every frame, the precision behind every render, and the responsibility behind every story released into the world. This academy was built to transfer that standard — not as theory, but as practice.

Animation, gaming, immersive media, and virtual production are not trends. They are the language of modern media. Mastery in these domains requires rigor, collaboration, and real-world exposure — all of which define our approach.

We are not here to produce graduates.
We are here to develop creators capable of shaping the next generation of visual culture.

The industry does not wait.
Neither do we.
