SPECIAL EFFECTS

AMERICAN HORROR STORY

 This is a television show that utilizes it's special effects team!  I have posted only two clips from the show but I could have dedicated an entire blog post to video clips. 


The two clips that I have chosen are from two different seasons.  The first is from season three, Coven, in which we see one of the witches being burned at the steak.  Obviously they did not light this actress on fire and burn her to death.  This was a digital effect that was added later.


The second clip is from season four, Freak Show,  where they had to create two headed twin sisters.  This was done with makeup, prosthetics, computer generation and green screen.  In the final product, you can't even tell which head belongs to the actress and which is fake.
