ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a device for imparting visual effects to reflected images. A housing is provided in which two mirrors are disposed. The first mirror reflects the image of the object to the second mirror. The second mirror reflects the image of that object to a recording device, such as a camera, or the like. The first mirror comprises a mirrored Mylar, which is backed with Lycra and a screen. By deforming the screen in the desired area, either by use of a suction produced by a blower motor, or the like, or by pushing outwardly, as with a screwdriver blade, or the like, the object can be made to appear deformed or otherwise be selectively animated in that location.
