Visual Effect

A visual effect is the process of playing on any moving image in a computer environment. A visual effect is the process of combining, placing, removing, or adding visual elements that are difficult and impossible to shoot in a moving scene to attract the effect of the audience or costly visual elements with the help of a computer or various equipment. The importance of special effects for cinematographic narrative comes from that it allows the imagined to be reflected in the film. A visual effect is an image creation created or improved during shooting for an incomplete film. In other words, after film images are taken, the place of visual effect is post-production. Visual effects are applications for live shots that cannot be shot with real actors in real places, to impress the audience and to add more realism to the film. Visual effects performed at the editing stage in the pelicul period are performed at the production stage with software and hardware programs provided by digitization today. As a result of the adoption of these practices by directors over time, new meanings were tried to be installed in the language of the film. 

 The distribution of visual effect techniques has brought a number of differences to special effect definitions. Special effects should be seen as effects performed by people who are experts in their fields and have high technical knowledge on the set during shooting. On the other hand, visual effects are applications where creativity is created entirely through tools and programs, dominating computer programs as well as technical knowledge. Visual effects include all types of image manipulation, while special effects use real-world elements. In this context, special effects and visual effects applications are divided into two topics. Due to the developing technology and software, this distinction has been made possible. Techniques applied in films made in the past can now be performed in computer environments without the need for large sets. Currently, visual effects and animations are working together with augmented reality in Hololens 2, especially in the cinema and game sector.
