MMPUK is also a fully integrated special effects ( fx ) company providing 3d digital compositing and animation
For the layman Special Effects ( fx ) are not only a way filming spaceships and laser blasts; there are many applications of this branch of film technology.
Special effects ( fx ) are used when scenes that are desired would be impractical, expensive, dangerous, or just impossible to produce in a normal manner. In the last few decades viewers' appetite for spectacle has increased, while the cost of quality production has multiplied tenfold. This has led to the more imaginative among us to look towards visual/special effects ( fx ) as a way to expand the scope of their ideas while still maintaining a practical budget.
Since the earliest days of those film pioneers it was assumed that all productions would require the services of the special fx artist. Every studio budget form had a section devoted to "tricks" and most used them. The Special effects ( fx ) company could cut the budget on set construction, reduce the number of extras needed in a crowd scene etc. However screen credit was often denied as it was felt that the audience should not be told that digital compositing ( tricks ) were used.
The best special effects ( fx ) are the ones you don't realise are fx these small scale fx are everywhere and range from changing the colour of someone's eyes to removing an unsightly mole to logo replacement on packs.
Special effects ( fx ) not only bring that extra polish to the production but in many instances are vital to its believability.
