In the recent article that I read, it talked about how you can make a “ghost” effect seem real. It talks about major points in how to make a ghost seem real. When creating a movie you can’t just have the effect of the ghost being in sight, you also have to have to psychology of ghost movies. When making a ghost movie they’re are three major things that you need to know.
– The first one is one of the most important ones to remember is that the spirits are still characters. These spirits need to have a story behind them.
– The second one is how the ghost will appear. If the ghost even does appear. The spirit needs to be fantastical of some sort. If not, then the you should just make it a normal person.
– The third aspect is to enhance the performance of the illusion. The illusion can ruin the show if it is not performed right.
All of this depends on your editing ability and your special effect ability. “You can have the best effect ever, but if it doesn’t work for the story, it’s just an effect”.
