MAAC Jayanagar has been Bangalore's most trusted animation, VFX, and game design institute since 1998 — producing 25,000+ skilled professionals placed at global studios.
The story behind Bangalore's most established animation training centre.
MAAC Jayanagar operates under the MAAC (Maya Academy of Advanced Creativity) brand of APTECH Limited — a BSE and NSE listed education company with 39+ years of global presence across 40+ countries. MAAC has 200+ centres across India and is the country's largest animation training network.
Introduced in 2025 under the NEP 2020 framework in partnership with Scope Global Skills University, we offer the UGC-recognized 3-year Bachelor of Vocation (B.Voc) in Animation and Visual Effects. Students earn a formal university degree alongside industry production skills with flexible NSQF multi-exit qualifications.
MAAC Jayanagar is accredited by MESC (Media & Entertainment Skill Council), NSDC (National Skill Development Corporation), and Skill India — the government's flagship skilling initiative. These triple accreditations give our qualifications national recognition and industry credibility.
In 2024-25, MAAC Jayanagar became one of the first animation institutes in Bangalore to fully integrate Generative AI tools — Midjourney, Runway ML, Leonardo AI, Adobe Firefly, Suno AI, and ComfyUI — into all flagship programs under the CareerX and CreatorX dual-pathway model.
Located at 3rd Floor, 11th Main Road, Jayanagar 3rd Block East — just 200m from Jayanagar Metro Station — we serve students from JP Nagar, BTM Layout, Banashankari, Basavanagudi, Koramangala, and across South Bangalore. Outstation and NRI students receive dedicated relocation guidance.
MAAC students participate in 24FPS, MAAC's annual international animation festival running since 2003 — one of Asia's largest animation competitions with 1,500+ entries from 100+ countries. MAAC Jayanagar students have won and been recognized at the national level multiple times.
Our qualifications are backed by India's most credible government and industry bodies.
