    WES THEME SONG: open.spotify.com/album/7qpQ0k... (By Eric Vanier)
    Wes Barker is a Canadian magician and comedian doing funny tricks, and telling great stories. You may (or may not) know Wes from his TV show Big Trick Energy. Well that's TV... this is CZcams! So watch here for hilarious, ridiculous, and unfiltered ideas with magic, stunts, and pranks. I am the funniest magician that is also a stand-up comic, or maybe I'm the comic who is best at magic. Either way you get the idea. I tour all over doing colleges, comedy clubs, and corporate events. Catch the adventures and tricks right here. With this magician / comedian based out of Vancouver and Toronto, Canada. I make funny stuff. That’s my only rule. Everything has to be funny, from street magic to stage illusions, as long as there is a joke to be made. I do magic tricks, sketches, stand-up comedy, card tricks, mind reading, and tricks with naked people. I’ve been on America’s Got Talent, Penn & Teller: Fool Us, MTV Greatest Party Stories Ever, and Wizard Wars. You can find me pulling pranks on friends, gags on strangers, or just general sleight of hand, magic, illusions, and the occasional bar bet. Wes Barker also hosts a podcast with Chris Ramsay called Bottom Of The Barrel. Go check it out!

    From a cinematic point of view I like that Eric’s mask moved from his ear to his hand. It would leave the audience wondering wether this was in his head or actually happened

    Postwatch: Definitely didn't expect it to start with the offering of the dying light bulb to the straight- jacketed God above 🤯

    Great concept and really well executed. Just one note.......
    If it had started by slowly closing in on Wes’s face and eyes, and then pulled back before he stood up, it would have better suggested that the escape was all in his mind.
    And it could have ended by closing in on Wes’s face again, highlighting his crazed eyes and the eerie effect of the light reflections.

    Love the Mr. Electric reference. In about 1980 I managed to get tickets in the 4th row for a live magic show. The performers that night were Marvyn Roy (Mr. Electric), Johnny Thompson (The Great Tomsoni), and David Copperfield. What a show. I'll never forget Johnny Thompson producing a bowling ball from a handful of black silks.

I looked down there three times before the reveal because there were only two ways out from behind the screen and both required edges to be well hidden. Love the concept of looping back to the beginning. Reminded me of the ending of the movie, Brazil. Love your stuff, guys. Would be so fun to set those up and shoot it.

      They don't. They also don't know that the boys would like to do more stuff like this with less jump cuts etc but Tru TV have more of a say how the show is produced/edited so it comes across in more of a prank style than clever illusions like this. Most people don't stay to the end because lack of attention span and it's more fun to bag sh^t online and troll it than give it a chance 🙄

    @raypierce5818 Před 3 lety

    Beautifully executed. You are correct that in shooting “White Art” against a cove, the line of demarcation between the bottom of the masking and the floor would have shown up on camera so CGI would have been needed to blur those lines.
