Never before seen
illusions created by Frederic Clement
Tired to
perform the same old
illusions that you've seen everywhere?
Over the years, Frederic Clement, illusionist & illusion
creator, has come with many new illusions and deceptive
principles that
no one else uses.
Have you noticed how much the bulk base principle is
overused in most illusion shows? If someone guesses one
illusion in those shows, he can guess them all!
But
that was then and this is now! You are about to discover
a bunch of new illusions created to deceive everyone,
even most conjurers...
Buy the rights to build and
to perform them
or we can have them built for you.
Frederic
Clement has been in magic and illusion show business for the
past 35 years. At the age of 19, he decided to focus on large scale
illusion shows when he personnally invited David Copperfield to
visit him in his own home. Then, for years, he worked on his
own illusion show without having many contacts with other
performers of his branch, so he had to develop his own methods and
effects to impress his audiences. By doing so, he created many
new illusion principles that have never been used in the past by
any other illusionists. Some of his greatest inventions are:
·Metamorphosis
2002 : World fastest sub trunk ever with a clear box and bag
·Rainbow Lady
: a brand new way to cut a lady into pieces, forming a
rainbow
·Sunshine Lady
: spread lady pieces to form sunrays shape
·The
Super Slicer & Stretcher (to be coming soon) : the most
incredible way to slice & stretch a human body
·Love/Death Bed : a
dropping spikes effect with no cover, combined with an
impossible
vanish and reappearance
·Motorcycle
Through Body : an impossible stunt combining speed,
danger, impossible penetration an swap between two human
bodies
·
Triple phase Walking Through Industrial Fan : a new
approach on the classic effect
·Moto-Materialization
: a new, self-contained method, to make a motorcycle
appear from a shadow box
·Levitation
& Transformation Over Bed of Nails : the oriental legend
comes to life
·Pirhana's Fish Tank Escape
: a Hollywood movie stunt performed live on a real stage
·Teleportation X
: a futuristic transposition effect at the speed of light (2
versions)
·Better-Half
Operation : a clear sawing effect using reel feet and a 360
degrees
vision
·Soul Portrait : a
new exclusive method and effect for the old classic Artist's
Dream.
·And many many more... (See all through this page
and and on our YouTube Channel)

Exclusively performed by Frederic Clement and Hans Klok.
Performer or assistant is strapped to a thin bed.
Spikes drops and pass through him. Suddenly, a puff of smoke blows
and the performer vanishes instantly. Slowly, a shape gradually
materialize through the fabric sheet covering the top of the bed. It

Magic Tent appearance
Make any large prop (or as many people
you want) appear inside an empty camping tent!
Exclusive illusion invented by Frederic
Clement
EFFECT:
Show a camping tent completely empty by
opening it, walking inside, lifting it over your head,
lighting through with flashlights and crushing it flat
to the floor if you wish. Then, make any large thing
appear instantly by lifting the tent.
Here are some of the advantages:
- Can be performed directly on the floor
or on any ungimicked stage riser that you can see
underneath to show that no trapdoor is used.
- Can be performed surrounded, no angle
problems.
- Very inexpensive to build, yet it can
be as impressive as any other expensive illusion.
- Packs small to fit into a hatchback
car, SUV or small van.
- Use any size tent, as long as a couple
of guys can lift it. The size of the tent determines the
size of the prop/animal/people you can make appear.
- Completely self-contained : nothing is
coming from backstage or understage.
- If you want to prove that nothing can
come from behind the stage, you can even unfold a
folding screen wall and wrap it around the back and
sides of the tent and even have spectators come on stage
to surround the props from beginning to end of the
illusion.
- Use any size objet/animal/person that
can fit in the tent.
- Packs small, plays big! The perfect
illusion for any show, including a full stage illusion
show or a smaller corporate event !
The props can be adapted to make any
mid-size objet or animal, or a bunch of people appear
instantly. For example, you could use :
- A toy car with a kid inside
- A real (small) car
- A go-kart, quad, 4 wheelers or
doombuggy
- A real motorcycle
- A snowmobile
- A jet ski
- A mascott for a sport's team
- A huge fishtank
- A large dog, tiger or any animal
- A washing/drying machine, a grocery
cart or any sponsor's product
- Any number of people (as many as the
tent can contain)
$495 USD. That price is for the plans, explanations and
performing rights only. Can easily be built for a few
bucks with materials you can find in your local stores.
No special tools or skills required. Anybody can build
it at home in less than 3 hours.
However, if you prefer us to build it for you, please
contact us at fonda-mental@videotron.ca for pricing,
depending on the size of the tent/props you want to use.
Invest now in the best affordable, transportable,
versatile illusion concept you can find for a few
hundred bucks!
The nicest & cleanest version of the
picture that comes to life
A method never used before for changing an
image into a real person!
Very clever and subtil. Almost impossible for
anybody to guess the method.
The girl appear and disappear on a little see-through
tabouret, making it absolutely impossible for the girl to arrive
or escape with the thick base principle.
This portrait is drawn by hand so it is a
true piece of art.
You can use any woman with brown hair without
changing the picture.
If wanted, it is easy to change only the face
of the girl for under $50.
A very romantic and emotional number.
You look at a nice painting of a woman. After
revolving the frame to show that the picture is flat and that
nothing is hidden behind, you place a little see-through stool in
front of the picture. You then lift a little pink sheet to hide only
the centre of the picture for a second and immediately drop it down.
Magically, the girl is now alive, in front of the picture and she
moves out of the picture frame. The picture is now clean, with no
image of her on it. At the end of the routine, the girl goes back to
the picture, wrapping the sheet around her. The illusionist pulls on
the sheet and the lady is gone and reappeared on the picture.
One of the best
prop-less illusions that fits any tight budget!
Scenario # 1:
The illusion starts with two men
on stage, one standing and one seated. The illusionist enters the stage.
He then ask the two guys to come and help him, but they don't care
and start reading their newspapers. The illusionist grabs the two
newspapers and pulls them off the hands of the two men. Instantly,
they have changed into two women.
Scenario # 2:
The curtain opens to show the
illusionist and his girl assistant seated side by side. They both
lift a magazine in front of them, while they stand up and walk
toward the audience. They both drop the magazines and, boom, they
have changed into two male assistants. Instantly, the illusionist
and his girl reappear at the back of the theater.
Possibilities are endless!Can
be used with any theme and any kind of
costumes/decors.
Be unique : do what has
never been done (this way) before!
Price : $595 (Free
shipping within continental USA & Canada. Can be shipped to any
country.)
Comes with special giant rigid magazines or newspapers (can easily
be adapted to fit your own theme), full instructions and performing
rights - use your own costumes, chairs/bench & decors.
A girl is tied up to a giant grill
by another girl. A spandex sheet is lowered in front of the tied
girl. You still see the shape of the girl in the sheet and you see
her moving her hands and arms to escape from the grill. Instantly, the sheet is thrown off
: the illusionist has appeared in place of the girl, in front
of the grill, and she is completely gone!
Can also be used to change any person to another one or to make
someone appear out of nowhere.
Uses an ultra-thin 1 inch table!
Plus, I
designed this illusion to be as impressive as possible, even in
smaller venues, where people could think that someone could hide in
the background. With the grill idea, it proves that nothing is
coming from the back wall or curtain. (And it’s really not! In fact, you can
perform it right in the middle of the stage, far from any backdrop.)
The perfect opener for your show but
can be performed anytime during your show.
From Hell to Heaven
Includes some classics and some
exclusive illusions invented & performed by Frederic Clement
25 illusions in 15 minutes
using only 3 illusion props.
The perfect way to end a show!
The audience have the impression of seeing a
full show in 15 minutes.
Probably the most intense illusion routine
ever with the minimum of props!
Fills the whole stage with lots of drama &
colorful costumes.
I can help you to build the same routine or
help you to build one of the illusions in this routine.
Contact us for pricing and to discuss about all
the possibilities for you.
Designed by Frederic
Clement to combine two classic concepts of illusion : The
Shadow Box & The Tilt-Over-Box
Please note : The
effect is similar to Copperfield but the method is
completely different. With Bill Smith's permission.
Make a full size motorcycle (or any
large object) appear cleanly, in full light!
No black art
No special background
Very good angles compared to other
versions.
Nothing coming from backstage
Completely self-contained
Box & table can be disassembled for
easy transportation
Heavy Duty construction & wheels
No counterweights or braces to attach
on the floor
Can also be used to make any other
large object or group of people appear! Make a whole
rock band or musical orchestra appear in it. Or use it
to make any furniture or large products appear for your
sponsor. It is only limited by your imagination!
Two assistants spin a framed box with
white fabric panels to show it from all sides. The box is
set on an elevated platform.
It is then tilted toward the audience and
opened to be shown completely empty. Assistants can even
pass light bulbs all around and behind the box to prove that
it is completely empty.
The box is closed and instantly, the
assistants tear off the fablic panel to reaveal the
appearance of the illusionist on a full size motorcycle.
A
man lies down on a short bed of nails placed on two stacks of cement
blocks. You can even brake another cement block on the stomach of
the person lying on the nails with a sledgehammer. The person is
then covered with a cloth. Now, the person starts to float
underneath the cloth. It goes up for about 4 feet and back down. The
man is uncovered and, big surprise, he has changed into a woman. »
Lots of presentation possibilities.
Frederic Clement used to reappear in the
costume of one of the two stage hands.
The perfect
stunt to make your show becomes a live movie!
The performed is tied up, arms and
legs apart, in a framed cabinet. Paper frames are closed at the
front and at the back of him.
A girl driving a motorcycle run
right trough the frame. Until the last second, you see the shadow of
the performer still in place.
Instantly, the girl appear tied up
in the frame and the performer is now on the motorcycle!
Can you imagine a better ending for the first part
of your show?
Triple phase walking through
fan
Exclusive illusion invented by
Frederic clement
The best walking through fan ever!
Walk through a huge 8 feet tall industrial fan in
3 different ways!
A large industrial fan sits on an elevetad
platform. The audience feels the wind coming toward them.
Phase one:
After a nice choreography performed in the wind,
in front of the fan, the performer goes behind the fan. Two
assistants lift up a small scarf in front of the middle of the fan.
The audience can still see all around that the fan blades are still
spinning. Through the scarf, you can clearly see the shape of the
hands of the performer pushing forward, through the fan. Immediately,
the assistants drop the scard and the performer is still behind the
fan.
Phase 2 :
The platform is turned 180 degres so the audience
can see behind the fan. The assistants tie the performer to the back
of the fan using cuffs on chains. The platform is turned 180 degrees
again so the performer is at the back of the fan. A framed fabric
panel is put to the front of the fan and a baklight is lit so we can
see the full silhouette of the performer, still tied to the fan.
Yout then see the performer escaping from the cuffs. He then pushes
his hands, face and feet throught the fan. You can even see his
shape coming through the fabric. Instantly, the fabric piece drops
and the illusionist is now standing in front of the fan.
Phase 3 :
The performer is tied again to the back of the
fan. The fabric cover is raised again in front of it and the
backlight comes on again. Again, you see him push through the fan
but suddenly, something goes wrong! The performed got stucked into
the blades and instantly, you see him vanish completely. The sheet
is droped and you can see that he his complety gone. Bang. Pouf! He
reappears at the back of the theatre!
Please consider the following advantages :
·Three effects with one prop. A full routine of illusions to conclude
any large illusion show.
·Use the same thin base than my Motorcycle Appearance Illusion. Only
1 ½ inch thick. You can change the motorcycle for the fan during the
intermission so you save space on stage and in your truck.
·Very powerful and heavy duty industrial fan.
·Only 3 months of use so you can consider it brand new. Comes with 3
years 100% warranty on motor, gearbox & controller components and
lifetime warranty on hub and airfoils.
·Perfectly safe.
·No thick base principal used. No black art. No deceptive steps.
·Can be performed far away from any curtains or stage props, in full
light. Can even be performed outside.
·Very good angles. Can be performed on 180 degrees with no problem.
·You don’t only see the shadow coming through the fan but you
actually see the hands, head and feet pushing through the fabric
until the last second.
Two girls vanish in a cage and the
illusionist appears on top of the cage.
Excellent opener but can be used
anytime in the show.
2 girls enter into a cage and a
sheet is placed on the cage. The sheet goes up: the 2 girls are gone
in the cage and the illusionist has appeared on top of the cage.
Can also be used to make one guy or
two girls appear or disappear.
On an elevated platform, the performed is attached
to the front of a grill. His girl-assistants walks to the other side
of the platform and she throws a sheet in front of her. Instantly,
the performer appears and the girl reappears in front of the grill.
The grill makes the escape impossible.
You can see the shape of the performer's body
in front of the grill at all time.
You can have lights shining through the
platform to show it empty.
Keep the
audience to the edge of their seat with this new kind of escape
illusion !
