Effects Associates
Effects Associates is a physical-effects facility based in Pinewood Studios and one of the longest serving such companies in Europe. It is a division of the digital visual effects and post-production facility Cinesite (Europe) Ltd.
History
Effects Associates was established in 1972 by a group of four British special effects supervisors, including Martin Gutteridge. Gutteridge bought out his partners by 1981[citation needed] and in 1999 the company was purchased by Cinesite (Europe) Ltd[1]. Together, the companies offer a full visual effects service.
