Whistling Woods as a college experience was truly a marvel, filled with wonders that surpassed my expectations. The campus was a haven of knowledge, buzzing with endless possibilities. The animation faculty members were not just educators but guiding lights, always ready to lend a helping hand. The masterclasses with industry experts opened doors to a realm of practical wisdom, leaving an indelible mark on my learning journey. Every day was an adventure, a canvas for personal growth and memorable experiences. College was a testament to the power of dreams and the beauty of knowledge, forever etched in my heart.
As I have recently graduated from WWI, I want to take a moment and appreciate the things I have learnt from such wonderful faculties. It was my immense pleasure to learn and grow in the knowledgeable and academic environment of WWI.
Some of my faculties have really shaped my skills and the person I am today, and I am very grateful to them for that.
To me, Whistling Woods has been and continues to be a great source of inspiration and support over the years. When I first came for a campus visit, the energy emanating from all around me, be it the faculty, the campus, or the students, was invigorating and drew me towards joining. Being a part of the Game Design course at Whistling Woods International has been nothing short of life-changing for me in several ways.
Whistling Woods International is an institution that emphasises on the importance of practical learning. We are involved in hands-on assignments including workshops, short films, 3D, 2D, game design as well as stop motion animation projects. The faculty creates a very supportive and interactive atmosphere which helps us push our creative boundaries. Whistling Woods recognises the significance of extracurricular activities in nurturing students that helped me learn more about the production management aspect of Animation. There is always so much going on at Whistling Woods such as cultural events, workshops, guest lectures, film screenings, and industry interactions which helps provide a holistic learning experience.
Whistling Woods is a vastly connected institution where you can build some great contacts across the industry.

It organises many well managed workshops where you can learn and explore several new aspects of this industry of entertainment. It will never deviate you from learning and will always encourage you to go for creative thinking, and the faculty will help you in every possible way they can. It has helped me gain a lot of self confidence. I got placed in Yash Raj Studios as a Junior Modelling Artist and it has been going great so far.
