Founded in 2023 by Keith Alfred Dawson and Bruce Armstrong, Action Special Effects brings together decades of experience in practical special effects for film and television.

Both Keith and Bruce began their careers in 1996, learning their craft alongside some of Britain's leading Special Effects Supervisors.

Their careers have taken them across the world, working on major international productions and collaborating with acclaimed filmmakers including Steven Spielberg, Ridley Scott and Tim Burton.

More recently, their work on F1: The Movie, directed by Joseph Kosinski and produced by Jerry Bruckheimer, has received recognition through nominations from BAFTA, the Academy Awards, the Visual Effects Society and Critics' Choice.

At Action Special Effects, we pride ourselves on delivering ambitious, innovative in-camera practical special effects, supported by specialist rig design, engineering, fabrication, manufacturing and onset operation.
