What is special effects?

Special effects (often abbreviated as SFX, SPFX, F/X or simply FX) are illusions or visual tricks used in the theatre, film, television, video game, and simulator industries to simulate the imagined events in a story or virtual world. Special effects are traditionally divided into the categories of visual effects and practical effects. Visual effects are digital manipulations, while practical effects are created physically during live action shooting. Special effects are used to enhance storytelling, create realistic scenes, and portray events that are difficult or impossible to capture in real life.
