"A MAD FX set is a SAFE set!"
Filming is fast paced and at times chaotic. Unforeseen variables, company moves and ambitious shooting schedules can add pressure to any set. ​ At MAD FX we're no strangers to this hustle, and recognize the potential risks that come from this pace. That's why we put a great deal of focus into ensuring that SAFETY IS ALWAYS OUR TOP PRIORITY. MAD FX works hand in hand with your production safety team and local health and safety jurisdictions. We address any safety concerns head on. We ensure the products we use are safe for our talent, crew, and surrounding equipment, and run extensive testing of effects in the early design stages. We want NOTHING overlooked or assumed on our watch. ​ ​ ​
"MAD FX's dedication to continually expand our knowledge of new materials, techniques and applications allows us to not only ensure we offer the highest quality effects to fit your projects needs, it enables us to continue to decrease the carbon footprint of each project we are a part of !"
As advancements in filming technologies continue to grow, our industry is able to turn out a greater number of projects every year. This creates more jobs, more opportunities, and inevitably, more waste. With every project, there is bound to be the foot print left behind. Waste materials, energy usage, and shipping emissions are simply a part of the process to create works that inspire, educate, and entertain. Though we may still have a long way to go, MAD FX is proud of its continual efforts to reduce our footprint in the entertainment industry. Choosing reusable vs single use consumables, water soluable and non-toxic materials, and sourcing local vendors that use renewable energy and offer a wider range of products and supplies are just some of the ways we cut back on the negative impacts.
