What is the special circle for?

"Special Photography Circle" is the most internationally renowned technology and product in Japan, and its representative "Godzilla" series is one of the famous international popular cultural symbols in Japan.

As a photography technique and special effect, "special photography" has actually existed since the birth of the film. According to the producers in Georges Méliès and Britain, the camera uses reverse rotation, high-speed and micro-speed operation to make people or things disappear from the picture. In The Robber of Astrotrain (1903), things that don't exist are shown through special photography.

The era of feature films began with 1937, but it was still shown as a TV series or a movie. Most of the early videos used props to achieve special effects, and holsters were used to show monsters and superman.

For example, "Altman" made a corresponding holster to shoot at the beginning, and its tall buildings were also made of models. After a special shooting technique, the feature film was completed.
