Eye color?

[Elok]

Okay guys, here's the deal. I was thinking about effects that would be insanely cool. And I thought "What if there was a trick were I could change my eye color?" and so I decided to reach out and see what you guys know. Thanks!

There was an effect that was released a while ago called Biokinesis by Berk Eratay that allowed you to do that but it is discontinued.

 

[Elok]

Do they sell it used? And was it safe?

 

[TylerScottIllusionist]

I'm sure you can find it somewhere on the internet. It was not considered to be 100% safe since it was possible to damage your eyes.

Biokinesis is the only one I know of. It's safe-ish. Anything involving the eyes is not 100% safe, let's just be clear there.

However, the method is pretty tame and I've seen people come up with it on their own for a variety of reasons. Another however - you're going to have a very hard time finding the product. The gimmick is legally restricted in the US for sure, and probably other countries.

 

[Elok]

Shoot, I was hoping there was like a contact lens or a pair of glasses or something. I am not into illegal gimmick or things that have a good chance of messing me up.

 

[WitchDocIsIn]

It's not illegal per se - you just need a prescription to purchase them in the US.

I also wouldn't say there's a 'good chance' of messing you up. If you follow the proper instructions you'll be fine.

What I'm saying is there's always a risk if you do anything with your eyes.

You need a prescription to purchase contacts and they aren't bad for you, just could be irritating if used in that way. Personally speaking, though, I avoid things with my eyes. They're bad enough already lol

I heard a story of Morgan Strebler scaring of someone in a bar with Biokenisis though lmao!

Penn & Teller do an eye ball trick where Teller reveals the 3 of Clubs in his eye balls. I know it's not colour changing, but it freaks people out

 

[Elok]

What about realistic skin color?

 

[WitchDocIsIn]

Realistic skin color?

 

[Elok]

Yeah, like wearing a hoodie walk up to some one. They will think you are the opposite skin color than you are. Then you do some stuff and BAM you are now a different skin color. And you can take off your jacket and what not.

 

[WitchDocIsIn]

Never heard of an effect doing that, sorry.

Do you meaning going from Hulk to Avatar? lol

Your enthusiasm is awesome my man, but you're thinking about creating an illusion that's a little too outside the box there. The eye colour change is a nifty idea, see if you're able to come off with a really safe way to perform.

I would say that it doesn't currently exist. I hesitate to discourage anyone from finding supposedly impossible methods.

That's what magicians do - impossible things. I just have no way to safely suggest any possible methods.

 

[Elok]

Well, thank you all for your help! I appreciate it and will let you know if I ever find anything.

The only thing I can suggest is changing part of your skin to a different colour through the use of a customised th*** t** (not too sure if saying the word is revealing?)

 

[WitchDocIsIn]

It's not revealing if the trick doesn't exist yet.

There was a trick on the market years ago called Tattoo Joe, where you could make a tattoo "appear" on your arm. I wasn't too keen on it from the videos but you might want to look into that.

I wasn't naming a trick, I was naming a utility.

Most magicians know what that it is so it's okay if you name it but most people abbreviate it as a TT.
