Hi Jack,
For some reason I had missed the text the last time I had looked at it. Now.. don't get me wrong on this as it was not my intention to make comparisons but after reading the description I am curious if its a similar illusion to one I built a few years ago for a tv fashion show. I can't see if yours is a chamber or just a framework holding the spandex. STOP!!!! For those who's minds are jumping the gun here. I am NOT saying Jack copied my idea so please lets not go there. I am just curious now about the presentation/method of the illusion and if it is similar to this... http://www.timothydrake.ca/custom2.html I was asked to build an illusion to create an illusion that could be used in a cinderella themed show and thus the reason for the clock face.( clock strikes midnight and magic happens ) It was a large flat clock face that could be rotated to show there was nothing behind it and then a girl was made to appear.If it is the same effect it a coincidence I am sure. Best, Tim |

I agree with you Blair. I don't think that the illusion manufacturer should be listed as part of the YouTube video. I don't think that anyone outside or new to the art needs any shortcuts to the prop designers of the stars.

What I can tell you is this came to me about 2 months ago while watching an old "I love Lucy" and I immediately called a magic friend to talk about it.

My illusion did not use any NEW principles so I don't claim any rights over the illusion whether its the same method as yours or not. Regards your Octagon Illusion.. I was really more curious if its a cabinet or a flat panel. Its very difficult to tell as your photo was taken from a front view only. Do you have any photos of it from other angles? Best, Tim |

No Problem! No I don't have other pics at this time but it is a flat screen Tim.

Can't wait to see a video Jack. It will drive me crazy trying to figure out which " I Love Lucy " episode inspired it. LOL I've seen every episode of that classic show.
Best, Tim |

The illusion will premier at: http://fabmagic.com/events/magicele.htm
So if you guys are in town come and check out the show. Rick has done a great job every year with the convention and he has taken the extra expenses to take the main show into a theater in Sturges.

Many have asked for a review for both of Jacks new illusions (Octagon and Gear Head) which was premiered this past weekend at the Fab Magic show in Sturgis MI. We will have a complete review out here shortly. Video and pictures will be online early next week.
Here is the short version of the review: put your orders in NOW! You will not be disappointed and you should get it while it is at the introductory price.

Hmmm, sorry to say that (cause I like Jack´s work and I guess it´s not his "fault") - I am disappointed of the video. It doesn´t show much about the illusion, and what really is seen...
The picture and the announcement text are giving more information (and are because of that more helpful) as the video. So it´s not very instrumental in a decision process of buying. Again, it´s no offense at all - but a criticism and like that, a try to help Jack in getting more of them sold. (It´s more a promo trailer for a homepage of a magician, where the booking organization get a few pics without telling exact things... - for a magician promo it´s good) |

I, too, wish you would add a wider-angle video to give a better idea of how the illusion looks onstage. The way the video appears right now, the person produced could have just stepped up on the platform between "cuts".
Also, at the end, the illusion was PERformed by The Mirror Images, nor PREformed...
Things are more like they are today than they've ever been before...

I'm already aware of all these issues and it's being rectifyed. A better vid plus the one for Gear Head "should" be up later today. I will post. Thanks for your FB.
Jack ++++++++++++++++ Sorry, the "performance vid" for Octagon, will be about one week out still.

We are aware of the misspelled word and will have this fixed later today in the next cut of this video.
This video was designed to share the prop feel / look - not to sell a performance, however a performance video will be out shortly when we receive this video from the live show that it was taken from. Gearhead will be up around 11:00 PM tonight. Thanks for the feedback.

Several people keep using the term "NEW " Illusion on this post and others. B/A has been around FOREVER!! There is nothing "NEW" as it pertains to method or effect. What is all the HYPE about.. am I missing something? Jack is a very good craftsman and people should go to him on those merits. But let's stop with the NEW jazz.

Well Gear Head is "New".....nothing like it on the market!!!! One man effect-no fake body parts-completely examinable-head is uncovered!

You might have mis-understood the postings. When it is mentioned about Jacks NEW illusions we are all saying they are new to Jacks product line. Nothing new with method. Just want to clear that up and sorry for the mis-understanding. Thank you all for you feedback. The review will be up shortly. Working hard to get you all the videos you need for the site. Cheers
