Digital effects artists

In the X-Men, how does Mystique (played by Rebecca Romijn) so effortlessly morph into other characters?

Well, it's not through makeup or puppetry. Digital effects is a big business, and there are companies in Massachusetts that specialize in it. As more and more movies rely on digital effects, more artists are needed to make the impossible - well, possible.
