Very very true ....some ppls say to not talk here or in some other places about masked idiot because is not well ...others say is not well to stay away and to do nothing ....how you think is not well....What is well to do ? Do not fool youself about presentation and others things ...maybe will be the last days of many magicians and will exist just the best of the best and the reach magicians and they will have each original illusion just for them and you the middle class magician or poor magician will be in other bussines not magic. I talked with Kevin Spencer and he just confirm me what I thought about the future...he already has some very original magic just for him specialy for him and the price is very very very high because when you want to order something totaly new and very unique in all world the price will kill you . So I am very sad but that's is the magic a Giant with feets made by clay earth . Is so incredible that just one jerk or maybe 2 or 3 could damage years and years of history ...and that because we haven't a sistem to protect the magic . For example from what I know chris from OZ Illusion when sell Evolution illusion you must to sign some papers ...if you will reveal this illusion is not well ... a lot of builders sell illusions to a lot of unknown ppls ...they must to msign an agremet....and we all must to find a sistem to fight against exposure...but will not happened . Seat back dear fellows relax and watch at masked tv special. |

I've been reading through the posts on the upcoming Masked Magicians specials. I think it's a terrible betrayal for someone in our art to do this sort of thing. I completely disagreed with Valentino's logic about "inspiring" magicians to be more creative by destroying the tools of our trade! That is a ridiculous statement. I had hoped that these types of shows would never come back around again. Many people worked very hard during those first "Secrets Revealed" specials to stop future exposures and bring some attention to the fact that this is an ethical problem. Those individuals managed to drop the ratings from 21 million viewers on the first show to less than 8 million on the third show. By the time the last show aired, only the "die hard" viewers were watching, something around 5 million.
I know many of the most creative minds in magic have sought legal advice on how to protect their illusions from this type of exposure. Many of them have legal documentation one has to sign in regards to Trade Secret Law and Intellectual Property Law. Hopefully this will offer some protection. Having lost a couple of illusions the first time around, we've spent the last few years "investing" in some original illusions. By no means is the entire show original though. I'm concerned about what we could lose in this next series. I'm already working on exploring new magic, trying to see what's available, etc...but that does come at a price. What bothers me the most is that someone inside our organization - this "brotherhood" of magicians" - is so willing to sell us out for a few bucks. Professionalism, ethics, honesty, integrity - all of these character traits are sadly missing in our organization and in society at large. I don't think magicians should gloss over what is being done or make excuses for this kind of behavior. It is inexcusable! |
