Skateboarding meets magic as we enter the world of optical skate illusions, employing only visual tricks to create a phantasmagoria with no post-production effects used. This unprecedented project will become a viral crossover feature by employing only visual tricks to create a phantasmagoria for the viewer with no post-production effects employed.
Director Gaston Francisco breaks down how he came up with the idea for the project along with how his team accomplished it without using computer graphics. Featuring Madars Apse, Tyler Surrey, Barney Page, Vladik Scholz & Danny Leon.
