By J.C. Sum

Are you a kids magician or family entertainer looking for more stage props and illusions beyond the dependable classics such as the square circle, dove pan, tip over trunk, drawer box and Zig Zag Girl? Are you looking for a Harry Potter-themed illusion?From one of Asia's top professional illusionists and one the world's most prolific modern illusion designers, comes a book on contemporary illusions for kids magicians and family magicians.J C Sum has created eight practical illusions & illusionettes designed for working performers looking to add scale to their kids/ family show or provide a larger scale effect for a special show.From making a birthday cake appear to changing giant cereal boxes into an aquarium full of live fish, the illusions routines, presentations and designs are contemporary and relevant for today's audience.New illusionists will find practical illusions that they can fearlessly try as their first illusion. Seasoned professionals will find inexpensive solutions for illusions to add to their existing shows.All the illusions are detailed with fully illustrated building plans and dimensions. Designed for the working performer, the illusions are practical and pack small/ flat for easy transport."For most situations, from a living room to a small stage venue, you'll find them to be effective, baffling and workable. Solid ideas from one who's actually been in the trenches and KNOWS what works.Creatively, it has been some time since I've read a collection of illusions that weren't just old ideas with a new paint job. J C's fresh ideas will come at you from the side. Where standard effects are used, he offers surprising innovations and unexpected combinations that raise them to a whole new level."~ Dan WolfeThe contents include:The Gift BoxA D.I.Y Illusion Box to Produce a Balloon Animal, Stuffed Toy or DollThe Impossible BoxA Unique Design & Routine for a Production BoxBirthday Cake TableMagically Produce a Birthday Cake SurroundedSuper Saver DeliveryA Girl Production Illusion that Costs Less than $100 to BuildThe Fabulous Magic MachineA Magical Scientific Contraption for Endless PossibilitiesCloak of InvisibilityMagically Produce a Kid From a Wizard's TrunkThe Giant Cereal MysteryA Multiple Colour Changing Cereal Box to Fish Aquarium IllusionTwisted ConclusionA Complete Vanish Climax for the Head TwisterCheck out J C's complete catalog of illusion books, plans and videos at www.illusionbookstore.com
