We are def way behind the west in so many fronts but just a matter of time….we’ll get there …eventually.

P.S – if am not mistaken I saw you at ‘Paprikaas Animation studios’ a long time back.

Thanks Swaroop for taking the effort of showcasing real talent.

The real fun will start when Indian special effects and software merge. Procedurally modelled cities, skin,fluid simulations , optical flow, and Pyton based graphics pipelines for studios… we are way behind Hollywood in this.
