Special effects

There are many different ways of creating special effects in films. One of the most popular is green/blue screen technology. The screens are used to project an image onto. This image can not be seen on the screen but can be seen on camera and film. This allows film makers to experiment with scenes and images that may not be physically possible to create. Pyrotechnics are also popular in action films in particular as they are easy ways of creating explosions. Mechanics and electronic works also can create life sized or over sized models of inanimate objects or subjects that may not be possible to get hold of or create in any other way. Because of our limited budget we were not able to create any of these, so we had to rely on our editing skills and resources to create our special effects, such as the changes in light and colour.
