Visual Effects & Special Effects    --- Same thing

Visual Effect that can be done through Premiere-
Blur & Sharpen
-Camera Blur - Gaussian Blur - Camera Blur - Sharpen - Blending
Color - *this can be done with an adjustment layer and applied quickly
-contrast : lights and darks
-balance : saturation
-Luma Curve : brightness and contrast of clip
Lighting
-lens flare : refraction from the bright light into a camera
-lightning effect : has start and end points and segments
-strobe lighting
Magnifying
Mirror Effect - reflection and symmetry
Turbulent Displacement - think water, moving into a dream, earthquake effect, flags, funhouse mirrors
Color Key Effect - think 'ability to green screen'
When you key out a color value in a clip, that color or range of colors becomes transparent for the entire clip. Control the range of transparent colors by adjusting the tolerance level. You can also feather the edges of the transparent area to create a smooth transition between the transparent and opaque areas.
Dust and Scratches / Noise - cleaning of clips and the pix-elation
Echo Effect - think streak, smear, or motion

Clip - Overlay :
Ghosting
Invisible Cloak
Lazers
Lens Distortion
Magic Tricks
Setting Replacement
- clean sky, set advancement
