What is VFX?
It is the process of creating a visual element that does not exist in the real world.
VFX is used in movies, TV shows, and commercials as well as music videos to create any effect that cannot be achieved using traditional methods like photography and animation.
The most common use of VFX is adding computer-generated elements to shots after they have been filmed (known as post-production).
However, some VFX can also be applied during filming itself using motion capture technology or green screen effects (known as pre-production).
