Front projection effect
open-in-new
<p> A front projection effect is an <a href="/facts/In-camera_effect/sgFhIyBt">in-camera</a> <a href="/facts/Visual_effects/AdoEkAWU">visual effects</a> process in <a href="/facts/Film_production/GL8DJm3W">film production</a> for combining foreground performance with pre-filmed background footage. In contrast to <a href="/facts/Rear_projection/ujsgdlNf">rear projection</a>, which projects footage onto a screen from behind the performers, front projection projects the pre-filmed material over the performers and onto a highly reflective background surface. </p>
