1. What platform(s) do you perform on? (Evasons)

What platform(s) do you perform on?

This performance looks best when The Evasons can appear side-by-side with multiple audience volunteers at the same time. For this reason, StreamYard - which can livestream just about anywhere (including Vimeo, YouTube, and Facebook) - is the preferred platform for this show, and we would be happy to help set that up if needed. Zoom and others can also work - be sure to specify your platform during booking as there may be an additional “platform discovery” fee of $500 if extra configuration is needed.

2. How long is the show?

How long is the show?

A standard (and strongly recommended) virtual show is 45 minutes in length. However, if you’re looking for a shorter performance, that is totally doable.

3. Does the length of the show affect the fee?

Does the length of the show affect the fee?

The show fee is based on a 45 minute performance - if you opt for a shorter show, that’s no problem, but the fee will not change as the setup and preparation for the event remains the same.

6. Is the show customizable? (Evasons)

Is the show customizable?

Customized mentalism that is specifically tailored to your product(s), brand, or gift your guests receive in advance can be incorporated into the show. Additionally, if you are looking to incorporate company-branded graphics and backgrounds into the production of the show itself, be sure to ask about our “Enhanced Production” package, which has the look and feel of live television production as opposed to a virtual meeting.

Can we have someone from our team present before your performance?

For sure! The show is often flanked by company presentations. Simply provide your event itinerary during the pre-show call so it’s clear when to be ready to “step out” onto the virtual stage.

9.5. Is there any hypnosis in the show?

Is there any hypnosis in the show?

10. Can we have a pre-show call with you?

Can we have a pre-show call with you?

Certainly! Each virtual show booking includes a pre-show meeting to discuss any outstanding questions pertaining to show content, tech specifications, etc. If you are looking for more of an ongoing consultation for your virtual event, we recommend our “Enhanced Production” package which includes a dedicated producer who will work with your team in designing your show or meeting from the ground up.

11. Do you have to see the audience?

Do you have to see the audience?

This show is packed with audience engagement so it is important that your guests have their cameras turned on! If your platform is designed in a way where most of the guests cannot be seen, be sure to ask how many on-camera participants are needed for the show during your pre-show call.

15. What precautions are taken to prevent an internet outage?

What precautions are taken to prevent an internet outage?

Great question. The show is broadcast from a device that is hard-wired to a modem to prevent potential Wi-Fi drops and interference from impacting the performance. While widespread internet service provider/power outages are always a possibility, an emergency backup streaming location is usually available.

16. Will you teach our guests a mind skill that they can use in their everyday life? (Evasons)

Will you teach our guests a mind skill that they can use in their everyday life?

Yes! We would be delighted to teach mind tricks such as easily remembering people’s names. Simply specify that you would like this during your pre-show call so we can best structure the show accordingly.

16.5. Will you host a Q&A with our guests after the show? (Evasons)

Will you host a Q&A with our guests after the show?

Sure, we can do that! Be sure to also specify this during your pre-show call.

17. Can we pre-record the performance for a webinar? (Evasons)

Can we pre-record the performance for a webinar?

Yes... although The Evasons are always best viewed in a live environment. There is a certain electricity to a live mentalism show that is often lost during a pre-record unless the footage is streamed in a format that does not appear to be pre-recorded to your audience. (Note that pre-recording would still require interaction with live volunteers.)

18. Can the performance stream to different time zones?

Can the performance stream to different time zones?

A performance in any time zone can be accommodated. Once that time is locked down, an advantage of virtual performances is that audiences can tune in from the comfort of their homes, anywhere in the world, at that time.
