I just bought a Zombie, but I don't have a video or book on the Zombie. What is are some good videos for Zombie? Thanks in advance.

Tim Wright has a good video out on the Zombie. He goes through some of the history, handling, lighting, music, characterization and routining of the effect. I also seem to recall that Jeff McBride has a segment on the Zombie on volume 2 of McBride On Stage.

Losander has a video out called The Art of Levitation, and there is a small segment concerning the Zombie as well. However, Losander naturally focuses on his Zombie gimmick in the video and not a generic gimmick.

Hope that helps.

I can second the recommendation for the Tim Wright video.

Tim's video is by far the best on the Zombie.

I advice to use McBrides and it is the 3rd volume of his "Magic on stage", not the second.

Good Zombie info on video:
1)Visions of Wonder by Tommy Wonder
2)MCBride in "McBride On Stage"
3)Tim Wright's video
and 4)Lossander's video
**Each of these has something to offer and I think you would do well to try and see as much of this as you can over time to be exposed to lots of approaches and ideas. There are also some good zombie books out there too! Happy floating.

Does such an animal exist? ( good zombie video )

Jeff McBride on his stage magic videos.The best I have seen yet.

Tim Wrights is the most thorough video on the use of the zombie.
Jeff McBrides is ok but is one small part of an entire video. Tim Wrights video is totally dedicated to the zombie.
Doesn't take much to figure out which one would be the best bang for the buck.
