Television is an important part of our work. We produce amazing images, spectacular live stunts and highly educational scientific experiments for TV productions worldwide. Our effects have graced many major European television networks, as well as US, Canadian & Australian networks. We can supply equipment, crew and stunt coordination services for any worldwide location.
We have worked with many of Europe's leading production houses and networks. BBC, ITV, Channel 4, Channel 5, Sky, RTL, VRT, Discovery, CUATRO have all benefitted from the unique impact of our effects. |

A live audience in excess of 1 Million tuned in to see Marco Schreyl perform a live lightning stunt. Marco is the host of Ungläublich, one of the most popular German language variety shows. EnBW, a german electricity utility, sponsored this prime time segment.
Working over 3 days at the RTL studios in Hürth, Germany, the sequence was refined and rigorously rehearsed. Our on-site stunt co-ordinator supervised set preparation and rehearsals. With just 3 minutes to prepare the performer during the show, extensive rehearsal was the key to a achieving a seemless production without compromising safety. |
Brainiac UK and Brainiac Spain both came to HVFX to design and produce bespoke lightning strike scenarios. We designed a number of experimental situations to deliver a spectacular effect, within the context of a high energy science entertainment programme.
The hands on, practical nature of our effects work was an excellent fit for the theme of the show. Director, Mike Griffiths, took a fly-on the wall approach to our work, producing series of energetic and naturalistic sequences with a spectacular lightning climax. |

I Survived, a science factual series featured an episode on Lighting strikes. We produced a series of lightning strike scenarios, ranging from the everyday living room to a fully choreographed stunt sequence.
Our performer brought a physical comedy to the sequence that suited the editorial direction perfectly, and provided a counterpoint to the more serious coverage of lightning strike scenarios. |
Objective Productions chose HVFX to provide a full range of electrical special effects. We provided Tesla coil based lightning effects, as well as spectacular energy discharge effects for a lightning strike sequence.
We re-created accurate lightning destruction and damage, as well as creating a physical lightning bolt live on set. Due to the controlability of our effects, almost the entire sequence could safetly be shot with the performers in situ.
