Interesting Special Effect from Avatar (2009)

    Special effects are used within several movies to enhance the movie viewer's experience and to add credibility to the movie's story line. Within the movie Avatar (2009), several effects are used to create a realistic view of the characters and the environment they live in.  To create the special effects, the scenes of the film required computer generated imagery (CGI) behind a green screen. Actors were then dressed up in body suits which synced the actor's body movements to make those of the film's characters. Actors also wore microphones to change their voices to those of the film's characters.  Overall, Avatar (2009) was a movie loaded with special effects and without the creation of CGI many of the movie's scenes would not have been possible. This is especially true for several of the scenes depicted in the film's trailer above which utilized many of these special effect tools to create the film.
