As the world goes irrevocably digital, and as this phenomenon ratchets up the technology curve at a blistering pace, the writing on the wall, rather, the message on the screen is crystal clear: “digital” is not just here to stay but is now, virtually indispensable to life.

Incessant, rapid, and ground-breaking innovations combined with technological advancements are shaking up the existing order and revolutionizing life as it produces a staggering churn powerful enough to realign the future.

At the heart of this racy and exciting phenomenon is the business world, particularly, the digital media industry which has so much to gain and so much to adapt to; an onrush of new roles aligning to the emerging tech dynamics and the surge in required capacities to meet burgeoning demand unleashed by unbridled digitization.

Animation, VFX, Gaming, Comics, Graphic-Mobile-UI/UX Design, Filmmaking, and other digital media industry verticals are some of the catalysts influencing this tectonic shift. These disciplines are emerging as some of the most in-demand pathways as there is a sustainable upswing in the variety and quantity of jobs.
