Visual effects inserts the virtual magic into historical dramas, the dragons into fantasy and merges real life and computer generated imagery. It’s less flashy than special effects – with none of the on-set pyrotechnics, prosthetics or animatronics – the work is done digitally before and after shooting. Working on the episode of The Crown that recreated the Aberfan disaster of 1966 still stands out for Lloyd-Malcolm.
And the reasons why you won’t find many senior women in visual effects are tiresomely familiar, says Hussey. “Traditionally hours are long and antisocial, including weekends and evenings. You could be away from home for months. And there’s a lack of role models – men have got the glory jobs and big titles.” While men and women graduate in visual effects and animation in equal numbers, not as many women are applying for entry-level roles, she says.
