Julian:
You need to get in the basket and let your sister stick the swords in. Mix it up a little. "Dueling magicians " is always a fun set-up. You have a girl as an assistant and she has a guy. It's also a great way to do many illusions in a short time. "It's Magic" , a magic show from King's Dominion , had a good example of this. The guy made a rabbit vanish and appear. She walked over and pointed out the rabbit was not real. He had his assistatn appear from a stove. Her assistant appeared from a stack of boxes. He did a thin model sawing. She did the zig zag man. It went back and forth like this. In the end , they both made a ferrari appear. |

Julian,
Your sister looks tiny. I suggest that you consider having your illusions designed with her measurements in mind. They could be super-deceptive. With regard to the sword basket, it may have been my eyes, but when you stepped into it I think you looked "shorter" than you looked when standing outside the basket. True? Maybe that's something you should avoid. On your second assistant -- she looked sufficiently like your sister to be a body double (same body type, needs a little hair color). With the right make-up, they could pass for twins (an advantage Harry Blackstone, Sr. exploited often). With twins, you can do a lot of effects without considerable expense. Just something to think about. |

I liked the hand hole in the sub truck but once you produced a second girl My fear was that many people would immediatly think it was the "other girls" hand the entire time. Nice performance. How long have you and your sister been working on this?

Hi Dirco,
I have alway loved magic and mostly Illusion its my passion but never found someone who would dedicate as much rehersal time as I would like to make the magic happen. My sister kindly offerd to do it (she is a belly dancer) and we built this set in about 6 months of solid rehersal especially as I had to build the sub trunk. On the video it looks a lot bigger I know but now that we have performed it against a black background in theaters and with propper lighting. It looks a lot smaller the sub-trunk was a nightmare to build and make it a fast change because that's what people talk about after the show. Now on our shows I don't hold the curtain when it comes down so its even faster. The system is a top T*** and has a nice locking system which you can now examine if you so wished. Btw the way the hand is mine at first. I hope this helps if you wana build this illusion feel free to msg me I don't own it I don't think anyone does and if they do I am really sorry. Could anyone help me out telling me if anyone does this illusion as it is at present ? Thanks |
