Visual effects (VFX) are used extensively in modern entertainment, including films, television shows, ads, and digital media. This research investigates the different types and techniques in visual effects used in animated films. Previous studies have identified a need for more information explicitly focusing on applying some techniques within visual effects. The study intends to fill a knowledge gap by emphasizing strategies in visual effects kinds, particularly in the animated film area. The research objectives are to identify the types and techniques of visual effects and their application in an animated film. Thus, the discussion and findings will be established at the end to conclude the research questions and objectives. This research uses qualitative methods by gathering and analysing data from various sources. The findings show that multiple techniques have been utilized in any animated film to achieve the desired visualization. The research provides important insights into VFX techniques and their application through case studies and references to earlier scholarly works, catering to animation practitioners and students seeking an understanding of VFX workflows.
