Special Effects in the Movies
Introduction
Special effects are a big part of movie magic. They let us fly through the sky with Batman. They make animals talk. Computers are used to create many of the special effects we see on the screen.

The role of the computer
A computer image for the screen takes a lot of work. Let's say you want a giant alligator in your movie. The first step is to scan a picture into the computer.

Then special computer programs let an artist add color, shading and texture. If the alligator needs more scales, the artist can draw them in. If it needs fewer teeth, he or she can take some out. After that, the artist works to make the alligator's movements look real. This can take days, even weeks!

The cost of special effects
Special effects take time and a lot of money. Artists sometimes work 12-hour days. Something that lasts a few seconds on screen can cost thousands of dollars and many hours to make. They cost a lot, but audiences love special effects. The movie industry knows this so it keeps making them bigger and better.
