NEW DELHI: While declining to give the exact venue for the proposed National Centre for Animation, Gaming and Visual Effects (NCOE), the Parliament was told today that it would be located in a place closer to the animation and gaming industry.

 

Minister of State for Information and Broadcasting Rajyavardhan Rathore said in reply to a question that the Centre would be set up with participation from the industry and with the help of Media & Entertainment Skill Council (MESC).

 

The objective of NCOE is to build a national centre of excellence to impart world class education at affordable fee structure in animation, gaming and visual effects.

 

This would help create a world class talent pool in India to cater to the Indian and global players, the Minister said.
