Special effects are illusions or visual tricks used in the theatre, film, television, video game, and simulator industries to simulate the imagined events in a story or virtual world. Special effects are traditionally divided into the categories of mechanical effects and optical effects. With the emergence of digital film-making a distinction between special effects and visual effects has grown, with the latter referring to digital post-production while "special effects" referring to mechanical and optical effects. Mechanical effects are usually accomplished during the live-action shooting. Wikipedia

Night on Ottawa Tour

After your narrated driving tour of the city you will enjoy an evening cruise ride through the Ottawa River on the Paula D cruise boat. While on board, you’ll take in incredible views of the city’s landmarks and attractions from the water and watch a beautiful sunset. Next, your guide will take you to Byward Market to explore the shops in the area and perhaps even grab a tasty treat while you’re here. Your final stop will be to watch the incredible Northern Lights - Sound and Light Show on Parliament Hill. This impressive display highlights fascinating stories about key figures, events and history against the backdrop of Parliament Hill’s Centre Block and Peace Tower.
