SPFX
We create physical special effects that bring your scenes to life with real elements.
Explosions
Explosions
An explosion is defined as the sudden and spontaneous release of energy. For the simulation of explosions on stage, we use pyrotechnic and non-pyrotechnic systems as needed. The use of deflagrating materials, air and other compressed gases, allows us to perform a safe task with realistic results by taking advantage of the energy and byproducts of the reactions in a controlled and effective manner.
Fire
Fire
The forefront of our systems allows us to have total control in the development of conflagrations both indoors and outdoors, with or without interaction of elements and surfaces in a safe manner under international standards and within the specific fire safety regulations for each situation. Likewise, our trained personnel can provide advice and effective reaction to fire extinguishing procedures and controlled burns.
Weather Effects
Weather Effects
A weather effect is understood as any effect that seeks to simulate the real conditions of a certain climate in a controlled environment using machines and materials. Our equipment allows for realistic environments and conditions in environments where they would not naturally occur, and to maintain continuity in the climatic aspect of the scene. We offer simulation of winds, snow, rain, fog, among others.
Compressed Air
Compressed Air
Compressed air is a very versatile area that, through the use and application of pneumatics, allows us to apply different techniques and systems to harness the accumulated energy when containing and releasing air at high speeds. With compressed air we can replicate exact movements or project elements (debris) safely, among other applications.
Squibs and Sparks
Squibs and Sparks
The 'Squib' is any detonating element that, depending on its shape and size, allows us to take advantage of the released energy to fracture and project different types of elements. Its most common use is the simulation of projectile impacts on surfaces, objects and people. Sparks (or spark squibs) generate sparks to simulate short circuits, bullet impacts on metals, etc.
Directed Charges
Directed Charges
A directed charge is any element projected in a single direction, which after its decomposition upon impact on surfaces simulates firearm impacts without using detonators, or allows the destruction of objects with controlled fragmentation. It is an effective and quick-to-assemble technique that provides great realism in multiple situations.
Dummies / Props / Prosthetics
Dummies / Props / Prosthetics
Our specialized department has an extensive variety of materials and techniques to replicate potentially dangerous elements or that cannot be real, making them safe for handling on set. This includes dummies, specialized props and prosthetics.
