TALK ABOUT IT
How special effects are created in films: traditionally, special
effects can be photographic, using techniques with cameras to
produce special visual effects: they can be mechanical, using
props, scenery, models and special machines that produce
props, scenery, models and special machines that produce
weather extremes or pyrotechnics (effects with fire); special
effects can also be produced using make up (to change an
actor’s physical appearance) and set design (using special
materials to build constructions that will easily collapse).
However, since the early 1990s, computer generated imagery
(CGI) has played a major part in creating special effects; many
of the effects previously produced photographically or
mechanically are now produced with CGI, resulting in cheaper
and safer ways to create special effects in film.
The Jurassic Park films are about a group of
scientists who visit an amusement park, which is
inhabited by cloned dinosaurs. The dinosaurs are
supposed to be confined in a controlled
environment but sabotage sets them free, putting
the scientists and other people on island in great
danger. They attempt to escape the island.
