Description

This is a magical take of optical illusions in which objects seem to shift color and size, while images appear and disappear. LeVar in a Blizzard - This optical illusion shows how special effects can be created. Artificial rock, plastic snow, snow and wind machines, and an ultimate blue wall come together to create a convincing optical illusion. Optical Illusions You Can Create - Kids show optical illusions they created. Trompe L'oeil - Artist Christian Thee, who paints trompe l'oeil or "trick-the-eye" paintings, talks about his artwork, shows some of the techniques he uses, and creates a trompe l'oeil window and scene. Camouflage in the Animal World - LeVar introduces us to several animals and insects who use optical illusion to camouflage themselves.
