3:30 "What Criss does is he goes out into the real world and he does these illusions with real people in a real setting, and the fact that he's able to pull that off is what makes it, I think, really stand out from everybody else." Of course, this is completely undercut by the fact that you can see from the shadows that there's a mirror there from 2:55 until the disappear, so clearly everyone there is in on it. Don't waste everyone's time with shots of them talking about how amazing it was.With the walking on water, he's got a whole pool full of confederates, but at least the camera angles are arranged competently enough that you can't see from the show itself what's going on.Many of Criss Angel's tricks are pretty good, but his shameless and routine use of masses of confederates make it impossible to take anything his witnesses say seriously, let alone any of his mind reading tricks. Rather than selling a trick, it actually ruins many of them that would otherwise be good.

Get a whole bunch of actors to pretend to be your audience - shout and scream while you walk.Get something clear and plastic approx. the height of the water.A wire-kung-fu set.Two cameras - one for yourself, one for another guy in the pool - the guy in the pool cannot show what's beneath the water, however.This will require two takes - one where you're walking on the plastic (shot by the guy in the pool), and another where you're going to mimic walking over water while the wire-fu set holds you up (shot by you).Splice them together, add the cheering, add the commentators, and voila! You've just done something only a "highly trained professional" can do.
