QUICK CHANGE 2
high speed haute couture entertainment
- THE MAKING OF A QUICK CHANGE ACT -
- This book describes a complete Quick Change act with 12 designer costumes - female and male.
- This book will allow you to perform sensational costume changes at an unbelievable professional speed.
- This book is published in high quantity, directed at serious magicians who are interested in learning the art of high speed costume changes at the top level.
- The techniques described in this book explain in detail the maximum equipment to gain maximum speed.
- The technique "tied ball gowns" differs substantially from old well-known classic costume changes as his new technique for the final costume is an innovative technique which resists the most demanding strains.
This is the sequel of QUICK CHANGE - rapid costume changes for men:
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.
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”
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.

I'm reading the book right now and I think that it is the greatest
book on quickchange there is!!!! It covers everything one needs to
know to have a good quickchange act! I'm glad to see that it is not
only about the standard techniques used in the Art of Transformation,
but it also contains numerous improvements and excellent new ideas!!!
And I'm looking forward to using some of them in my act!

As an adviser to magicians I have always been pre-occupied
with the subject of “Quick Change” and fascinated by this
profession. With his
new book Quick Change 2 Lex Schoppi
bestows upon us a glance at his distinguished vestments.
From the possible covers, the selection of the correct
materials, about the choice of the best tear-away seams,
right down to the savoirfaire in the staging, Lex Schoppi
explains everything in this book. And I really mean
everything! For everyone who wants to put
together a professional act with costume
changes, this book is a must.
Lee Alex
Merlin Award Winner and "Illusionist of the Year 2009"
author of "time for a change"
For the first time Lex Schoppi offers an in-depth
look into the vivid realm of
transformations for female
performers, along with the male
costumes from his own professional
act, “Lex Schoppi & Alina”. Lex’s
experiences remove the difficulties that have to be overcome
by any performer when developing a new act, or changing an
existing act; heed every word and revel in the professional
wisdom.
Christian M. Thurnes
co author from Quick Change - rapid costume changes for men
QUICK CHANGE 2 is an
entertaining and unusual story, many rigorous tips and facts,
a load of documented experience and of course many
beautiful women in beautiful dresses. The techniques used for the costumes by
Lex Schoppi represent a class of their own.
