I went from MEL scripting to Python to PHP to Python / Django. Coming from VFX will give you a different perspective compared to other compsci types IMO. Especially if you've worked with things procedurally. In the end with Django it's more than just Python but other than controlling ornery ORM generated SQL its pretty easy to work with on all fronts and has PHENOMENAL documentation. Hit me up I twitter @leetrout if you want to chat more.
