Inside story of Indian VFX

In this episode, I am having a conversation with Biju.D, who is a pioneer in setting up the VFX studios in Mumbai, India. 
In the 80's Bollywood went through a significant change in the field of Visual effects. That was the beginning of Digital filmmaking coming into India. Today Indian VFX entrepreneurs are a significant force in the world of VFX. 
Here in this conversation we are discussing various aspects like, the transition period, VfX education, the challenges faced by today's filmmaking community etc.
Please join us on this exciting conversation.
