Hey guys, hope you all are having a great weekend! Our most recent release is by a man that needs no introduction - Calen Morelli. That project is called Optical Deceptions. These effects were designed for this moment in time - specifically created to be presented on Instagram, YouTube, Facetime, and Zoom. These are optical illusions that trick the eye into believing the unbelievable.
Using YouTube, Vimeo, or Instagram, your job is to make a video of an optical illusion. It can be any type of illusion; floating card or deck, coins standing on each other by the edges, you name it. The only rule is that you cannot use any special video editing to accomplish your optical illusion. You can use any method you like, as long as it does not use touching or editing in any way. Also, we will only accept NEW submissions - any old videos will not be counted.
Once you have taken a video of your optical illusion, post the link to it in response to THIS forum thread by no later than 11:00pm EST tomorrow, Sunday, June 14th. After time is up, we will go through all submissions and decide on a winner.
The winner will be decided based on overall creativity and execution; make sure the composition is right for your illusion and make it unique. If you follow that criteria, you have a better shot of winning! Granted, your illusion does not have to be 100% original. You can use Richard Wiseman's videos on Quirkology as inspiration, this cool video of anamorphic illusions, and anything else you can find.
What can you win this week? 1,000 Elite Member Points, Optical Deceptions by Calen Morelli (both videos), and a deck of Gold Artisans, shipped on the house, anywhere in the world.
We look forward to seeing your optical illusions!
