50% is the idea and vfx skills, the other 50% is the ability to control your movements so precisely that you get usable results and because you're so good at the first half AND the 2nd half, which is basically acting, these videos come out perfect. You have a gift for performance art!!
Kevin, your art is not just masterful use of technology. It's much more than that: Endless creativity, unimaginable dedication and delicious poetry. This is what happens sometimes when an adult person has not forgotten he once was a child. And it's very rare.
…aaaand if you were a magician, you could do all these live, in the same sequence no cuts, no AI, no editing. But, not to worry, you are a tech wizard! And, either way, you’d still need Your Lovely Assistant.😊
Your ability to maintain facial expressions is the most impressive part for me tbh, you keep very specific facial changes, and have a huge amount of control over your face muscles which is honestly crazy.
Thank you for sharing this with us! The AI-interpolation part was what explained most for me. The cuts seemed so perfectly smooth, almost not human :) Great job, Kevin!
They say “a magician never reveals his secrets”. But Kevin does because he is so confident that he will never show similar magic again and surprise everyone with a unique one. Hats off to you for ideating and executing that masterpiece 🤩🤩
The initial video was awesome. But after watching all the creativity, production, editing skills, and time that made it all possible, my appreciation for what you do is just through the roof! Thank you for sharing! Very inspirational!
I think one of the most underrated skills you have is being able to hold very still and repeat motions very well, so a lot of these editing tricks are easier to do for you in post. Just so impressive, though, all of it!
This is a masterclass at video editing trickery and really showcases perfectly the importance of planning! So good Kevin! I've wondered how you did it and I'm blown away to find out it's a continuous shot (kinda) but that somehow makes a lot more sense! Your wife's help and expressions were also great! 😂 I'm inspired!
I’ve been dabbling in trick camera work since I was a kid in the 90s with nothing but a VHS camcorder, so it’s always fun to see how these effects are done so well. Great guide video!
I'm going to have to watch again, because now the balloon deflating is the most impressive part. I'm sure I saw a balloon deflate (or I was) but that means you animated it, as we never saw a balloon deflate in your top-down shot. Alternatively, it could be simply that the sound effect made me think I saw it deflate!
I think you are leaving out your insane body control and sense of magic. Lots of life hours went into this besides the edit! Incredible. Thanks for sharing.
the fact that all the movements line up is the real magic. This man's muscle memory and movement precision is on point! Even with the A.I. its impressive
It isn't muscle memory. He is just using very basic and quick movements that are easily covered up in editing. He doesn't even move to get the objects. Someone is literally right there handing them to him so he can stay in one spot. How is that impressive?
@SgtSupaman a sensible question is what it is. Sure you *can* do it, but will you? Will you go through the many *many* takes and failed tries till all your movements line up perfectly between cuts? I'm impressed by his effort and talent. If you're not, then so what? (Also throwing pebbles at my "grammer" is base)
@@MyCatTayo , first, I didn't say anything about your grammar; all I did was answer your question, so I have no clue where you are getting that from. Second, he shows us in this very video that all he had to do was write down the steps so he could do it all continuously. He didn't do take after take. Again, the movements are all super simple and easy to mask. You, me, and anyone else could have done all those movements and been able to mask them with editing in just a single take. Is the end result creative and fun to watch? Yes. Is it an impressive display of skill? Absolutely not.
I just discovered this channel and I’m in love. I LOVE seeing how things work and how things are made(the show how it’s made is my jam). Thank you for this 🙏

Thank you very much for sharing this, brother! I saw the original video and enjoyed it so much that I wanted to know how you made it, but I didn't think you were going to give us the behind-the-scenes!
Hey Kevin, new subscriber here! I am not a videographer and know nothing about After Effects (or any other video-editing apps or modalities), but I actually really *liked* the "technical explanations", and wouldn't mind seeing you explain more! Between your skills, AI, and the amazing way the human brain perceives (or doesn't perceive!) what our eyes see, I find more magic in your videos than in just seeing live illusions. Thank you for the fun (and education) you bring!
Ok, aside from the initial annoying clickbait and ego, I do like that you honored AI on the assistance to editing the video together. For someone in VFX, it is obvious to know the edits, but the actual transition in the end product was seamless. When I saw this result, I was surprised that a simple freeze with external swap was actually good enough - there are so many flaws with such a physical trick (I have experience, it works but usually not as smooth as the edit ended up being). Knowing you used AI is not just humbling (I appreciate that) but also eye opening to the possibilities of the technology. Impressive and respectful.
It's a massive time saver for generating blends on the face/head. In the past I've had to split my facial features up and mask them in over a dozen frames to create a convincing enough blend (because my head always drifts or rotates when I'm freezing positions)
@@kevinbparry That's a tedious technique, and your issue with drift / rotation is common because we're human. But the way you did it works well with AI and I'm glad you shared your process. It was educational and inspiring.
If there's one thing I realized watching this video, it's the importance of having a very supportive and cooperative companion when filming camera tricks like this. I wish I have a wife who is so supportive as Kevin's.
The pencil through balloon is close to plausible. If the balloon isn't fully inflated and you're quick, you can drive a needle through and out the other side without popping it. The skin will naturally be thickest at the mouth and the opposite end. You can then pull a string with the needle and thread it through the center of the balloon. I've done this before as a party trick. I imagine a pencil is too large for the latex to seal around compared to a needle. I didn't think that *all* of the tricks were props and editing magic. Very impressive!
I'm an amateur but I've been editing video since 1990 and I have to say your video is the most perfect edits I've ever seen. Great work my friend. SUBSCRIBED.
The only thing the AI and you missed were the crinkles of your shirt by your right elbow and there is a facial change during the pencil/balloon trick. Other than those it looks great.
im just as impressed with the editing as the original video when i thought it was "standard" magic .. im learning 3ds max at the moment, and boy editing can make alot of things today

Don't play poker with him.

How to add that AI ?
@@Aditya.Pandey. It honestly looks very similar to the Morph Cut function in Premiere
@@Aditya.Pandey.just click on the button that says AI 🤡
@@Aditya.Pandey. Probably Flowframes.

it's because he's not a magician. He said this at the beginning.
He’s not a magician tho
Thats because magicians dont exist
@@Epoilable They technically do, they just use optical illusions and visual tricks to do it.
he never revealed the shirt
I watched the original video 5 times cuz, it's so satisfying.
I’m on 10
Same here
same
true😊
I'm on 16
The initial video was awesome. But after watching all the creativity, production, editing skills, and time that made it all possible, my appreciation for what you do is just through the roof! Thank you for sharing! Very inspirational!

Btw i watched it 4 times to try to notice but failed miserably
I did not
You are a very talented video maker, and you and your wife are the real team.
Now I want to see a magician recreate this video but without any editing! 😄
....Ultra fast shirt changing, haha
I see you. The real trick was getting people to believe transposition was separate from teleportation and that you actually had 10 items in your list.
This is a masterclass at video editing trickery and really showcases perfectly the importance of planning! So good Kevin!
I've wondered how you did it and I'm blown away to find out it's a continuous shot (kinda) but that somehow makes a lot more sense!

That After Effects project is filthy, but the result is amazing. Truly a wizard to make the explanation more magical than the illusion.
Unbelievable, you worked so hard editing the video in 168 layers.I Salute you.❤
me too not
the phrase “with the magic of editing…” is the embodiment of this video 👌🏽
The amount of work put into this for a minute long video is amazing

The most magical thing about this is your wife's patience
now explain how to get a Wife pls
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

What
The actual magic trick🎩
The hardest trick in the video is getting a wife lol

Thanks for sharing the magic us KP! What Ai interpolation program did you use? Or was it something inside of After Effects?
Huge thanks to your wife.. She did the real job 😁 👌
LOVED THIS SO MUCH!!!! ❤❤❤ No idea who you are or what you do on TH-cam, but was fascinated the entire time!!! Happy this was randomly suggested! :)
Genios!!! Gran trabajo de ambos!!!

Thanks for sharing us your secret trick which is not so secret anymore ⭐️
you did an amazing job Kevin congrats!
Always killin it. All the editing is so smooth and seamless and it’s such a cool video!

It is One of my favourite videos of the year. So good 👍
The amount of thought and effort that went into this is amazing

this is so incredibleeeeeeee
BRAVO!!! it's not magic, it's clever use of A.I. editing software, IMPRESSIVE Brother
This makes it feel even more magical
I watched that many times, and now your explanation about the tricks made it even more mind blowing. Well done 👍👍
Thanks for revealing it as so many people now become aware about the reality 😊❤🎉good job keep going
If there's one thing I realized watching this video, it's the importance of having a very supportive and cooperative companion when filming camera tricks like this. I wish I have a wife who is so supportive as Kevin's.
Two reasons why his video was a hit.
1) Great execution and editing
2) Very beautiful presentation on practical magic while using movie magic.
How'd you change shirts
Wow. What amazing talent and execution.
Wait, did people actually think this was real? I knew it was edited, I just thought it was a really cool way to show the categories
The original and the explanation are absolutely amazing!!

that was nice, I am AE user for very long, and I can tell its very good work....
He didn't blink even a single time in full video 😅
I am so very impressed. I know a lot of magic but wish I was able to edit so well! Really seamless.

I can't explain it but you have such a unique charisma
Brilliant illusions nice work. Cheers.
Bro you just made me exited...🤯
So the best tip to become a great magician:
Get married.
Excellent Kevin.. you have amazed us.
It seems very complicated!!
Great job!! 👏👏
the cool thing is, the pencil through ballon trick can actually work if you stick it in to the thicker parts.
This is what you can achieve with great planning and remarkable editing skills! Well done!
I always wanted a magician to reveal his tricks and now it finally happened
I know none of this was magic tricks or "illusions" heever, the work and editing that went into it is simply amazing
The was great showcase of skills!
The amount of knowledge you put in this isn't for newbies...nice videos.
