Maya Academy of Advanced Creativity (MAAC), a powerhouse in 3D animation, VFX, and gaming education, organized a special webinar called Behind the Screens. The webcast attracted more than 5000 students from across 120 MAAC centres in India.
A Deep Dive into Game Design & Storytelling
The webinar provided students with useful experience in game design, virtual environments, and storytelling. Part of the MAAC Behind the Screens campaign, it looks to close the gap between school education and industry requirements at MAAC in Media & Entertainment.
Mayur Puri Shares Industry Expertise
The session was led by Mayur Puri — Bollywood filmmaker, screenwriter, lyricist, and actor. Renowned for India-localizing Hollywood blockbusters such as The Lion King, Avengers: Endgame, and Moana, Mayur spoke on filmmaking, scriptwriting, and localization, sharing insights that are in line with Maya Academy of Advanced Creativity’s goals.
“It was a pleasure to discuss future storytelling trends with students,” said Mayur. “Their imagination and energy give me high hopes for this industry’s future.”

Sandip Weling, Aptech Limited’s CBO, pointed out the initiative’s value:

The initiative helps MAAC achieve its vision of empowering students for a career in the rapidly growing Media & Entertainment industry, while achieving Viksit Bharat (self-reliant India). Maya Academy of Advanced Creativity continues its mission to develop future-ready talent.
