I am currently working on designing a production of Willy Wonka, and I am looking for some thoughts or ideas on how to create the illusion of flying for the "Wonkavator". If anyone has any ideas, they would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Have you considered rear projection?  This can be especially effective if the people dramatically move when the "Wonkavator" turns bends, etc..

Beth,

I am VERY interested. Do you have pictures of the set that I could look at?

Thank you so much.

Do you still have your wonka props available?  Could you forward price and/or pics?

We did our Wonkavator on a lift that was rented from a local construction company.  It was very cool as it rose upduring the song. We also had Charlie and Grandpa George on a sea saw painted black so they could go up and down dangling their feet as they rose up. We still have it if you are interested in renting it or the squirrel costumes.  pictures available on request.  We are in the north suburbs of Chicago.

Would you have the Violet Beauregarde inflatable costume available? I need help with finding a rental.
