 VISUAL  EFFECT & POST PRODUCTION
07/01/2016
( INTRODUCTION OF VISUAL EFFECT & POST PRODUCTION )
Visual Effects ( VFX ) are any effects digitally created or enhanced for a movie, TV, or video game production. The goal of all visual effect is to keep audience focused on the story or the characters. Good VFX artists are judged by their ability to make the impossible seem absolutely real. In film making industry, VFX are the processes by which imagery is created and/or manipulated outside the context of a live action shot. Most of the serious visual work took place in post production and we called it as Visual effects. Visual effects can be added to live-action capture through techniques such as matte painting; rear- and front-screen projection; miniature or forced perspective sets; computer graphic objects, characters and environments; composting of disparate images recorded in any number of ways. From both points of view we can reach that: a visual effect is the manipulation of moving images by photographic or digital means that creates a photo realistic cinematic illusion that doesn't exist to the real world.
