Par Lex Schoppi
Livre en anglais sur les changements de costumes.
In this specialty book you will gain a deep insight into the complexity of this
quick change act and experience its creation in the form of a diary. The latest
technical knowledge flowed into this presentation and is elaborately described.
Both the costumes and the props are described in detail. The techniques
applied here are hard-core and allow the speediest costume changes “par excellence”.
From preface (Lex Schoppi): Quick Change as an art of entertainment should suggest
to the audience that you are actually able to dress and undress very quickly.
It is not a question of changing the color of the costume. It is also not a
question of changing the most costumes. It is foremost the harmonious interaction
between the choreography, the rapid costume changes and above all the enhancing
decoration which makes an arousing show out of the mundane change of a dress.
The eyes are purposefully over stimulated to charge the human brain, and so
an optical firework is created from a simple effect.
Background: At the end of the year 2008 Lex Schoppi & Alina created a television
act which amazed a television audience of more than 10 million. Now Lex Schoppi
has put pen to paper and allows the reader a complete insight into the complexity
of the whole quick change act. You get to see the effects from behind the
curtain and understand what really happens within seconds. Apart from the
technical subtleties, the author goes into detail of the correct presentation
of the effects described. You get to see how a complete quick change act
of 12 costumes was developed, how the costumes work, exactly why they performed
in that way and how the difficulties were overcome. The techniques described
in this book allowed the split second costume changes seen in the legendary
television programme to be performed faultlessly.
