The company has a proud record of service to the industry throughout South Africa and neighbouring countries over the past 20 years.
Motion Picture FX SA has a full time staff compliment of eights, three of whom are fully qualified pyrotechnicians registered with the Chief Inspector of Explosives of South Africa as well as neighbouring countries. The company tries, where possible, to maintain a basic training programme for a few selected aspirants in the field of Special Effects and Stunts.
The
nature of the industry in South Africa has forced Motion Picture FX SA
to accumulate a considerable and varied inventory of special effects and
stunt equipment, and is currently the only supplier and manufacturer of
certain classes of equipment in Southern Africa. This factor has allowed
the company dectorate, in its planning, continuity of service with regard
to equipment. Where possible we attempt to assist other Special Effects
and Stunts operators in the industry to meet their equipment requirements
on a rental basis.
A similar situation has arisin in respect of specialised materials, and in this regard Motion Picture FX SA has become the only suplier of a variety of imported materials. Once again this factor gives us independence of action and where possible we support the induatry for other operations.
