Inspiring MPC

Cinefex Blog: What drives people to work in the visual effects industry? The glamour? The technology? All those ravening monsters and exploding spaceships? Or is it just another job? In an ongoing series of articles, we ask a wide range of VFX professionals the simple question: “Who or what inspired you to get into visual effects?”

Visual effects is a great industry. It allows us to make a film into what we dream of. It was interesting to hear what each of these artists thought about the industry and how they got into it. What it seems to me is that these artists love what they do but really happened on it by accident. these artists came from various different places from various different majors but all came together to do visual effects. I think their perspective is very helpful for anyone looking into this line of work. the fact that visual effects can make things that humans can only dream of and put it in full detail when we watch a story really adds so much magic to the experience. we just have to keep in mind that there must be a balance between the visual affects and live film.
