Who are VFX?
VFX is a division of Vickers Laboratories, a chemical manufacturer established in 1969.
VFX has over 20 years’ experience working in the special effects industry, and has co-ordinated with many of the major special effects supervisors in the UK.

You describe the effect you are looking for and we will work with you to try and create it.
