Hello all,
Just got my Workers Illusion Appearance System (WIAS) from JC Sum. I was looking for a good illusion to pitch to clients and this seems to be perfect. Imagine telling a client that you will float the company logo, or product depending on the size in a modern looking cabinet. You then drop the front curtain and upon ripping the curtains off produce the CEO, Speaker, or anyone they want with a minimum of rehearsal. They are in a totally comfortable position the entire time.
That's basically it in a nut shell but it gets better. The entire illusion packs into itself becoming an ATA travel case that ships over the counter at the airport. No heavy shipping fees or wondering will my props arrive in time.
I have been playing with it close up as if I were in the trade show booth and it looks great. Understand though that it is not as deceptive as other methods but for practicality it is totally worth it in my opinion. I feel my money was well spent. You can also adapt the illusion to produce yourself completely ready to do a dove act or two standard sized illusion assistants, or basically what ever your imagination can come up with.
He was very professional in getting it to me exactly when I needed it and the quality is very good. Six months ago I sent a $3,000.00 cash deposit to George Kimmery at Chalet for a Dekolta Chair with Platform and Steps. He promised I would have it in six weeks and never delivered. On top of that he has come up with every excuse in the book why he can't get me my deposit. If was refreshing to know that there is a reputable builder out there that delivers on his promises. I guess I'll just have to see George in court...
Anyway, highly recomended for the working magician.

I've only seen JC's work on the internet and never up close, but it's good to hear some news about it from someone that's got it...
BTW, what is the standard size for illusion assistants?...lol

Exactly..is that standard Asian or American sizes? LOL
Thanks, Puckmagic, for the review of this illusion. I was hoping to read a review of it by someone who owned one. J.C. is a very talented individual.
Sorry to learn of your woes with Chalet. You are not alone.

Hello all,
I´m from Finland. Our show places are usually in companyes room/ball room/hall etc and there are not stage. I´m using now seven times WIAS and it works perfect. WIAS does not need any lighting conditions, normally ball room ligtning works. It is easy to transport and easy to built up. When I teach the people I will produce from the cabinet, it takes about 5 minutes.
I´m using to produce CEO, Santa Claus, and myself
JC makes the illusion with your hope = size, curtain color, venetian blind colors.
My measurements is; high = 2 meters (80 inch)
I have had Shadow Tent, Tip Over Trunk, and there are allways some proplem with it.
If you have stage were you are with the band any big or wide appearance illusion do not work. But WIAS work. You need only 1,5 m (50 inch) work with WIAS.
I higly recomend WIAS if you are looking for appearance illusin which works any kind of places.
If somebody have questions I give answer to you.

I'm a huge fan of JC Sum. I have his illusion books and they are excellent. His products are well made and his ideas are refreshing and very practical.

I'm aware that this is an old thread but it will be nice to hear what users of this product experienced trough time.
As much as I can see from the video, whatever way you produce someone from a that big dark box,its not going to be effective but its better to hear from someone using this. And please don't say its good just because you spend that much money 
and yes, isn't it too over priced ?
