Has anyone used Mizoguchi's Tape Cup? Did it play well? Have a place in my Christmas show where it could be a less messy alternative to an existing effect. But am not sure if the fake is effective for parlor (living room) conditions.

Yes, excellent effect -- SEO will "form" them or you can do your own - always gets a great reaction.

How many times can you perform this? Does it need refills?

This is a link to buy it. Looks like you get 1 cup, a bunch of tape to make more cups, and instructions. No milk pitcher. I can't tell how many cups you can make from the supplied materials, but more 'tape' is available to buy.

It seems like if you start with a roll of tape you could shape it into a cup just by pushing down near the center of the roll and then sort of shaping it,

Thank all of you for the feedback. It is greatly appreciated.
I decided to go a different way for this using an Evaporation bottle to transform colored liquid into a mylar streamer (from Hughes Magic). It looks good. The styrofoam cup starts inverted on top of bottle which gives impression of emptiness. The liquid is poured into the cup which immediately turns into streamer when cup is inverted (a weight was added to end to make this happen). Then when streamer has finished the cup is just crushed and dropped. This is a lot less messy than the s***h p****r approach I had been using. I have a quick way to rewind the mylar coil so reset insn't bad. It has been used a lot for other routines and it held up well so is very cost effective. |
