VISUAL EFFECTS

In filmmaking, visual effects (VFX) is the creation of any on-screen imagery that does not exist in real life. VFX allows filmmakers to create environments, objects, creatures, and even people that would otherwise be impractical or impossible to film in a live-action shot. VFX in film frequently involves the integration of live-action footage with computer-generated imagery (CGI).

FX

DYNAMICS AND SIMULATION

An FX artist creates the visual effects in movies, TV shows and games. They are responsible for creating smoke, fire, destruction, water, as well as smaller effects such as objects colliding or liquid simulations in a glass.

The goal of an FX artist is to create seamless effects so the audience does not realize that they are computer-generated. This can take countless hours of research into real-life phenomena, watching reference videos, and even building new developing tools. FX artists are essential in today’s entertainment business as most films, TV shows and games require digital effects.
