There are two types of visual effects in general: creative (visible) and technical (invisible). The first one includes everything that viewers should focus on while watching. The second sort implies processing objects, backgrounds, and whatever else that should not get the frame. Walla Walla Studio provides both types of VFX services.
– Cleaning
When wires, backdrop elements, and other technical objects cannot be removed when filming, cleaning up of everything redundant occurs at the post-shooting stage;
– Rotoscoping
Cutting objects from frames can be necessary to use them as standalone images. Replacing backgrounds from objects or actors also belongs to rotoscoping.
– VFX supervision
We can analyze a video in terms of appropriate visual effects to be applied. It can be made at the stage of a script revision as well as after principal filming is finished.
– Set extensions
Footage of both outdoor scenes and in-pavilion ones is limited by physical objects and landscapes available on a film set. Using scenery does not always provide the desired effect. Set extensions transform the film set in a way unachievable by real-world means.
– Compositing
Seamless integration of digital objects and characters into ready footage is probably the most technology-intensive VFX process.
Appearance improvements. Applying stage makeup and costumes without digital processing can make actors look unnaturally in many close-ups. Visual effects help make even the most fantastic character look believable and authentic.
– Titling
Details matter for the right brand positioning: logos, fonts, and colors should follow a unified brand guideline. Our VFX titling service helps harmonize visuals with other brand-inherent attributes.
– Animation
2D/3D animated insertions make a video sequence especially impressive and expensively looking. We can create and insert animated scenes into any footage with photo-realistic rendering.
We exercise a special discipline to resonate with our customers: the art of listening. Embracing customers’ ideas in full seems to be the primary faculty for every service organization. Our experience in visual effects helps us immediately recognize the VFX services our customers may need.
When we review the raw materials to be enriched with visual effects, whether it is just a script or finished footage, every team member comprehends the role to play in the upcoming work without redundant instructions.
Neither our project managers nor VFX experts may decide that a current project is finished. The project’s owner is the one who has the right to do so. It means we do as many iterations in VFX refining as necessary to satisfy our customers completely.
Our team is a collective creature who believes that no boundaries exist for imagination. What makes us think so? Our activity immerses us into virtual universes where visual effects are imagination in action. We know that digital worlds provide anything we may ever need to prove that thoughts create.
Each team member is continuously trying to convey such truth to our customers: their thoughts create as well. The only difference is in the VFX technologies we possess: our expertise helps the creativity of our customers manifest on screen.
Video effects (VFX) compose a broad range of technical means to make changes in already made footage. VFX can be divided into two large groups: technical (invisible) effects and creative (visible) ones. Technical VFX services aim at improving the picture mainly: removing wires, microphones, backdrop objects, and other redundant things from the frame. Creative VFX services add showmanship to footage with digitally created creatures, landscapes, coloring, etc. The contemporary VFX software allows creators to forget about limitations in processing video images of any sort.
There are many types of video effects, both technical and creative. Cleaning, rotoscoping, and some other VFX aimed at improving footage belong to the technical effects. They remain invisible to the audience mostly. Set extension, compositing, animation, and many other creative VFX add showmanship to the film. Digitally created objects, creatures, and landscapes allow movie creators to achieve the visual impressiveness that is merely impossible with scenery, makeup, and other real-world means.
Video effects are evolving to follow the demand of the contemporary film audience. Film creators have to fight for viewers since competition in the cinema industry and television is severe. People expect the picture to be dynamic and impressive no matter which type of video we watch. Raw footage is accessible to every smartphone owner today (YouTube and TikTok are immense deposits of no-VFX videos). Professional film creators must enrich their products with video effects just to keep staying in the domain of commercial video production. Creative VFX studios like Walla Walla help make any video professionally-looking and eye-catching.
