I recently came across this site which sells an illusion which creates "ghots" to fly around the theatre, they call it Mini Pair of Phantoms. Here is the link:
http://www.marco-beltempo.de./indexe.html Skroll down to the 9th illusion. Click "info" and a video demo will open up, showing the "ghost" flying around an auditorium. Am I mistaken or is this the same effect Copperfield used in his Dreams & Nightmares show? Is this exclusive material? Because I don't want to buy a rip-off. If it isn't a copy, then does anyone here have any experience using this? A review would be appreciated. I'd like to find out as much as possible on this. Thanks in advance, Brian

Sorry, forgot to mention that you have to click on "Illusions", then skroll down.

I'd be interested to hear from Sean Bogunia if this is a rip off of his effect.

This effect does seem VERY, VERY similar to Copperfield's effect. I'm not exactly sure if they are the exact same, though.

Tim - Is Sean a member here? If so, what is his forum name? I'm sure he'd like to know about this.

Yes Sean is a member.
You can see his PTS system here http://www.seanbogunia.com/store33/Scrip......oduct=17 I've noticed Sean discusses the mini phantoms on this page as well. Best, Tim |

Hello,
Very interesting. I thought David Seabach was the consultant for David Copperfield's flying ghosts. If I remember corectly he is even credited on the specail at the end.

I have heard really often that the ghosts were the creation of Ty Reveen. Cant be 100 % sure though but that's what I have been told.

The (space) ghosts that Copperfield used are build By Ty Reveen.
He also build them for Lance Burton. Sean Bogunia has his own unique version that is also very good! Since the beltempo site sells rip-off illusion (like interlude & origami) I would stay away from them... |

This is not a rip off of my PTS. The video is on a loop it can not fly like that for very long. I have seen one and it is a very well made item.

This was the same principle used on DCs barclay house seq if that's what the orginal poster wants to know. Only that I would say DCs was simpler. Since most of his ghosts travel in one direction. Except for some of them who make twists etc. The principle is the same as marco beltempo. Complex setups can enable movement in more directions. Having said that let me also add that its one difficult setup. You would really need to have a complex team to work on this.
Someone in an earlier post said this must be a ripp off from sean bogunia. In fact vice versa. You don't have to ask sean bogunia for this. Hes nothing to do with this system. |

The principle that the Mini Phantoms work on has been around for many years.

Everything have a principle, the illusions in the moment just have the technology of this moment!
