The illusions used in the film, television, theatre, videogame, or simulator industries to simulate the imagined events in a story or virtual world are traditionally called special effects (often abbreviated as SFX, SPFX, or simply FX).
Special effects are traditionally divided into the categories of optical effects and mechanical effects. With the emergence of digital film-making tools a greater distinction between special effects and visual effects has been recognized, with "visual effects" referring to digital post-production and "special effects" referring to on-set mechanical effects and in-camera optical effects.
Optical effects (also called photographic effects), are techniques in which images or film frames are created photographically, either "in-camera" using multiple exposure, mattes, or the Schüfftan process, or in post-production processes using an optical printer. An optical effect might be used to place actors or sets against a different background.
Mechanical effects (also called practical or physical effects), are usually accomplished during the live-action shooting. This includes the use of mechanized props, scenery, scale models, pyrotechnics and Atmospheric Effects: creating physical wind, rain, fog, snow, clouds etc. Making a car appear to drive by itself, or blowing up a building are examples of mechanical effects. Mechanical effects are often incorporated into set design and makeup. For example, a set may be built with break-away doors or walls to enhance a fight scene, or prosthetic makeup can be used to make an actor look like a monster.
Aaron Dontez Yates (born November 8, 1971), better known by his stage name Tech N9ne (pronounced "Tech Nine"), is an American rapper from Kansas City, Missouri. In 1999, Yates and Travis O'Guin founded the record label Strange Music. Throughout his career, Yates has sold over one million albums and has had his music featured in film, television, and video games. In 2009, he won the Left Field Woodie award at the mtvU Woodie Awards.
His stage name originated from the TEC-9 semi-automatic handgun, given to him by rapper Black Walt due to his fast rhyming style. Yates later applied a deeper meaning to the name, claiming that it stands for the complete technique of rhyme, with 'tech' meaning technique and 'nine' representing the number of completion.
Aaron Dontez Yates was born on November 8, 1971 in Kansas City, Missouri. He began rapping at a very early age, and would rap the letters of his name in order to remember how to spell it. He never met his father, and his mother suffered from epilepsy and lupus when he was a child, which emotionally affected him and inspired him to "search for God." He would wander around abandoned buildings with his best friend, Brian Dennis, hoping to catch a ghost on film. In 2003, Dennis was shot and killed by his girlfriend's ex-boyfriend, which further inspired Yates' search for a higher power, as well as giving him the drive to vent his frustrations in his music.

Plot
On the northwest side of Milwaukee, Mark Borchardt dreams the American dream: for him, it's making movies. Using relatives, local theater talent, slacker friends, his Mastercard, and $3,000 from his Uncle Bill, Mark strives over three years to finish "Covan," a short horror film. His own personal demons (alcohol, gambling, a dysfunctional family) plague him, but he desperately wants to overcome self-doubt and avoid failure. In moments of reflection, Mark sees his story as quintessentially American, and its the nature and nuance of his dream that this film explores.

Mark's Uncle: That's all right, that's ok, umm...
Friend/Musician: Here is what it think of lottery... It's like, when you play the lottery, sometimes you win and sometimes you lose... But it better than using drugs or alcohol - Because when you use drugs and alcohol, especially drugs, you always lose.
Mark Borchardt: 'Your AT&T; Universal Card has arrived"? Oh God, Kick-fucking-ass, I got a Master Card. I don't believe it, man. Life is kinda cool sometimes.
Mark Borchardt: They're making a mockery of my words, man. This whole thing is turning out to be a theatrical mockery. You understand that, Mike?::Friend/Musician: No,::Mark Borchardt: Well, you will.
Uncle Bill: It's alright, it's okay, there's something to live for... Jesus told me so!
Mark Borchardt: I'm gonna wake up to hell tomorrow, man. Those credit cards ain't gonna look nice, man. But I'm always a man for my word. Mike Schank, you happy?::Friend/Musician: Yeah, I'm happy.::Mark Borchardt: How happy are you, man?::Friend/Musician: I'm very happy.::Mark Borchardt: Well good, man, cuz don't drink. You're gonna set the world's record. OK, man. I'm cooled down, but... Hey I'm serious, man. If I missed somebody or anything, man, thanks a million for, uh, for helping out, man. Cuz I... I couldn't have, whatever, done it.
Mark Borchardt: Do you think this is a little bit cathartic for you?::Friend/Musician: Uh, very cathartic, Mark.::Mark Borchardt: Do you know what cathartic means?::Friend/Musician: No.
Mark Borchardt: Would you buy this movie for $14.95?::Friend/Musician: Yeah, hell yeah, man.::Mark Borchardt: If I can find 3,000 people like you across this country, man, I'm in business.::Friend/Musician: Of course, man, I mean... Shit, that's what "Rush" tickets were.
Mark Borchardt: [Reacting to an IRS notice threatening a lien on personal property for delinquent funds due] Luckily it's just $81.00. What are they gonna take, ya know, like my "Night of the Living Dead" book?
Joan: He wants to be somewhere where he's not. But then, don't most people want to be somewhere where they're not?

Special effects drive me right up the wall.
I can't reason at all with your special effects.
Special effects, oh, they turn me around,
I can't locate the ground with your special effects.
You turn your power on me I can hardly see.
My senses reel and whirl,
I never want to be without your¡
Special effects, oh, they take my breath away,
I can't tell night from day with your special effects,
Special effects. Special effects. Special effects¡
Your cover is blown
Familiar and strange
You quoted a film
Only just rearranged
You drank the champagne
You opened the doors
With sleight of hand
But I was never yours
I see you through the magic, and the view's getting clearer
Smile realistic through the smoke and the mirrors
My eyes love what my brain rejects
Never gonna fall for your special effects
It's magic, and the view's getting clearer
Smile realistic through the smoke and the mirrors
My eyes love what my brain rejects
Never gonna fall for your special effects
Special effects
Special effects
You're a deception, humble and coy
You push all the buttons / you seem to enjoy
They're larger than life / to all who approach
Mimicking humans / well beyond reproach
I see you through the magic, and the view's getting clearer
Smile realistic through the smoke and the mirrors
My eyes love what my brain rejects
Never gonna fall for your special effects
It's magic, and the view's getting clearer
Smile realistic through the smoke and the mirrors
My eyes love what my brain rejects
Never gonna fall for your special effects
Special effects
Special effects
I've never been
Easily played
Except for one time
But the memories fade
The memories fade
(Never gonna fall)
I see you through the magic, and the view's getting clearer
Smile realistic through the smoke and the mirrors
My eyes love what my brain rejects
Never gonna fall for your special effects
It's magic, and the view's getting clearer
Smile realistic through the smoke and the mirrors
My eyes love what my brain rejects
Never gonna fall for your special effects
