Visual Effects Supervisor
In the context of film and television production, a visual effects supervisor is responsible for achieving the creative aims of the director or producers through the use of visual effects. While it is a creative role, most supervisors possess a strong technical background and are capable of making informed decisions about the most efficient and effective technique to employ to solve the problem at hand. Often a supervisor will work in tandem with a visual effects producer and computer graphics supervisor. Supervisors can be employed directly by a film production company or work for a visual effects company. Often there are several VFX supervisors on a project, although there is typically a senior VFX supervisor directing their efforts. Specific responsibilities vary depending on the nature of the production, however most supervisors: * Handle a VFX project from conception through to completion. * Manage and direct the technical, artistic, and production personnel. * Possess a k ...

Back-to-back Film Production
Filming back-to-back is the practice of filming two or more movies as one production, reducing costs and time. Trilogies are common in the film industry, particularly in science fiction, fantasy, action, horror, thriller, and adventure genres. Production companies may choose, if the first film is a financial success, to green-light a second and a third film at the same time and film them back-to-back. In a case where a lengthy novel is split into multiple installments for its film adaptation, those installments will usually be filmed back-to-back. Rationale In modern filmmaking, employment is now project-based, transitory, and "based on a film not a firm." Almost all participants in the industry are freelancers, who move easily from one project to the next and do not have much loyalty to any particular studio, as long as they get paid. This differs from the old studio system, a form of mass production in which a studio owned all the means of production (that is, reusable physi ...
