Walking thru the Great Wall of China
Effect : David Copperfield walks through the great wall of china When
David Copperfield goes inside the first box there was a switch made,
copperfield goes under the box and goes into the hollow stairs he
then
gets carried away inside the hollow stairs. A lookalike in shadow
form
pretends to walk through the first part of the wall, after he plays
his
part he gets inside the hollow base plateform. By that time the
assistances pull the sheets away to show that he walked through the
first part of the wall.
The stairs that copperfield is in is behind the camera boom as it
makes
a complete rotation over the wall. The assistances on the ohter side
of
the wall take the same stairs and put it next to the other plate
form.
The assistances climb the special stairs and hold up a small white
sheet
of cloth. It looks like David Copperfield is pushing his and and face
through the cloth. The secret behind this action is that the person
on
the righte is just controling a pair of fake hands which he controls
with his right-hand. The person on the left is just pushing a fake
face
through the cloth with his left-hand.

The two assistances then drop the small sheet cloth and listen to the
wall to see if Savid is all right. They then slowly roll down the
sheets
to cover the frame box up and make sure it is tucked in good, they go
down the stairs to wait for copperfield to make his way through the
secound part of the wall.
All he has to do now is get out of the hollow stairs and inside the
box
and watch his angles with the light. He then comes closer to the
light
so it looks like he is coming through the secound part of the wall..
He
pulls the sheets away to reveal himself, the white cloth stays on the
floor becasue it contains the props.

blue sky with clouds in it or i could use thin rooler shade mirrors
in
the sky or i could use altought i couldnot use it. but if i could
the top secret invisible jet in broad day light concept and just
aply it to the helicopter:) itsa special ayer of thin clear skin that
some how? refelects what it sees in the back on to the front of the
jet

helicopter land in a small cage behind the girl in black suite that
holds the cirlce flixibele thing that is attaced to her back they
never show her back hmm?:) and she is also a nuff angle cover
togive
ample time for real helicopter come of clouds streight on to itsmark
for
the apparance! now! remove the cirlce sheld! :) thats why he could
do it also in slow motion.

I never Felt So Much Love In one Room Before ps.line from David
Copperfield on one of his CBS Special evenits ;) doing close up
magic
and big stage illusions somtimes inviting Children onStage for a
illusion close up or stage or just in the audience :) and also he

also to make large buildngs and air planes an jet airplanes appear or
vanish in day time or nite time have platform raise up higher in the
air or lower to the ground or move your way point of view with lazy
susanturn table or haul jet airplane or elephant out the back added
with stage scim netting nite time scrim or day time scrim stage
netting ideas plus a nother idea is use photo realistic coard board
cut outs of jet airplanes or buildins extc
or have jet airplane stay on real runway tarmac but the whole fake
runway tarmac raise up in mid air and then undercover of sheet or cage
added wih sheets idea cover trap door up lock in it place have pre
recorded of jet airplane with shadow projector to look like elephant
or jet airplanes still there that way secretly haul jet airplane out
the back or under ground with fast elevador or lower plank to haule
jet airplane under real grown or real run way air port or have 2
dimsnion jet airlpane buthave airplane look like 3 dimnsion ideas or
cars ,trucks extc

wire frame insheet to look like diner train car is still there under
