Special Effect


Special effects doesn't always mean using CGI (Computer Generated Imaging) or high tech devices and engineering. Sometimes you can achieve an "effect" by watching for and using the simplist things, including glass, mirrors, lighting, positioning.

You can compare the terms "visual-effects" and "special-effects".
