VFX stands for Visual Effects. It is used to add or change things in videos that may be difficult to record in real life. For example, adding a fire effect, creating a fantasy background, or showing a flying superhero are common uses of VFX.<\/span><\/p>\n

Animation is the process of making pictures, characters, or digital objects appear to move. Cartoons, animated advertisements, and 3D movie characters are examples of animation.<\/span><\/p>\n
