Such visual effects take place at the time of live action through techniques like computer graphics object, rear and front screen projections, matte painting, miniature perspective sets, compositing of images recorded in a number of ways. Generally, such integration of visual effects with imaginary created and live image footage would look realistic but it’s a very costly affair and many times impossible to capture on a film. In such cases, visual effects help independent filmmakers to achieve it with the help of composting software and reasonable animation.
