During 2009, I spent several enjoyable weeks in Austria advising on a TV magic series called ‘TrickFabrik’. The Saturday morning show presented by Thomas Brezina, required magic tricks and illusions for 13 episodes – so nearly 100 close up magic effects and stage illusions with a modern twist were created.

The first series was broadcast last Summer and was hugely popular, achieving top ratings and winning industry awards. We are now filming the second series, and it’s looking even more amazing than the first! We’re creating some big things including making a major Austrian landmark disappear! The show starts on ORF1, the national Austrian Channel, in April.
