Special Effects Manager


As you all may know, my name is Chris Bailey, the special effects manager of Sky High movie. My job in this spectacular movie is to create those amazing special effects; our department oversees the mechanical effects: also called practical or physical effects that create optical illusions during live-action shooting. Some of the special effects in the movie would be such as when our hero 'Will Stronghold' flies down and holds the Sky high with his almighty strength when the gravity is cut down by the villain of the movie. It has been an awesome experience to have been a part of this marvelous super-hero movie. My favorite part of the special effects in the movie would be 'let me think', 'aah, and yes’, in the scene of power placement we had included a rather interesting character the 'Carbon Copy Kid'. He could copy and change into any person, in the movie we had created a special effect making him look like he has changed into the Coach who was standing close by to the carbon copy kid. I personally had a magnificent journey working with the special effects crew on the movie. Sky High is a thrilling film with several scenes of spectacular but cartoonish for example where kids with super powers slam each other into walls and through windows, or zap one another with freeze rays and fireballs. Sky high is a remarkable, tremendous special effected Disney movie for teens and family to watch, enjoy and also it stays true to its rating as PG for violence, which is limited to a couple of cartoonish fight scenes.
