-green screen
(in film and video techniques such as chromakey) a blue (or green) background in front of which moving subjects are filmed and which allows a separately filmed background to be added to the final image.
-mattes
Mattes are used in photography and special effects filmmaking to combine two or more image elements into a single, final image.
-define practical effects
A practical effect is a special effect produced physically, without computer-generated imagery or other post production techniques. "Special effect" is often synonymous with "practical effect". In contrast, visual effects are created in post-production through photographic manipulation or computer generation.
