Illusions

Facts

Production crews will use Blue or Green Screens to help create the illusion that people or objects you’re watching on TV or at the movies can do amazing things - fly, run or even jumping over tall buildings!

Most wrestling is 'predetermined' (the wrestlers know who is going to win before they get to the ring) and choreographed (planned and moves worked out before, a bit like a dance routine).

ALL wrestlers undergo years of training and learn how to wrestle, take falls properly and look after themselves. Never ever try what wrestlers do in the ring at home, school or anywhere else... you may end up getting seriously injured or worse.

The wrestler that Mister Smooth has a grapple with is Robert Bruce who was the commonwealth wrestling champion in the 1970's and once fought for the world title. His finishing move was called the 'caber toss'.

By adding sound effects to things, TV and Film crews can make things appear differently to what they really are..... (and sound ten times worse than they really were)

Did you know

A person called a 'Foley Artist recreats sounds for film, televison and radio prodcutions on a Foley Stage, in a post production studio, to enhance sound. For example if somebody was going to walk to and then ride a motorbike a Foley Artist would:

recreate the sound of the leather jacket and jeans as the actor walks; footsteps on whatever surface the actor walked on, sitting down on the bike, starting up the bike and the stand being kicked up, then the bike moving off  - and maybe even some sounds of the keys being dangled

Special effects are used a lot in movies, for instance the first Lord of the Rings movie finished filming in about a year but it took another year to add the special effects to it like the big battle scenes which had lots of computer graphics in them; the dragon on the bridge and Gollum’s reflection in the water.

The special effects in the Lord of the rings, King Kong, The Chronicles of Narnia were all done by a company called Weta Workshop based in Wellington !!!

Wrestling has been around since 1500 BC and is an Olympic sport!

Constable Bryan is a friend of the world famous three time wrestling champion 'Diamond Dallas Page' from the WWE.
