What makes Planet in Pixel truly revolutionary is its commitment to quality, mentorship, and practical learning. Recognized as India’s best online editing institute, the platform offers an in-depth, hands-on editing course built around real-world applications, and includes cinematic colour grading as a core component-something most traditional institutes struggle to deliver.

At the heart of the course is DaVinci Resolve, the industry-standard software for professional editing and colour correction. Karthikeyan, a Blackmagic Design Certified Trainer-a distinction held by only a few in India-leads the curriculum himself, ensuring students receive accurate, high-level instruction aligned with global standards.

With over 2 lakh followers and 120 million views across platforms, the Planet in Pixel community is thriving. It provides LIVE training sessions, personalized feedback, project-based learning, and continuous support. In fact, the platform boasts that its online ecosystem is “100% better than many offline courses,” with unparalleled support that often exceeds what’s available in physical classrooms.

Our mission is to bridge the gap between talent and opportunity by making professional editing and cinematic colour grading accessible to everyone in India-regardless of where they live,” says Karthikeyan, Founder & CEO of Planet in Pixel. “Our students are creating high-quality work that rivals global standards, thanks to our focused approach on DaVinci Resolve and practical skill development.

Planet in Pixel is more than just a course-its a movement. For anyone aspiring to become a professional editor or colourist, or for content creators seeking to elevate their visual storytelling, this is the place to be.

Enrol now and experience the future of editing education in India.
