Bearwin Meily filming second installment of ‘Thou Shalt Not Blink’

October 28, 2008

In honor of Da Bear’s third TV special, soon to hit the air, we’re typing this entry with no edits:

Filipino entertainer Bearwin Meily is hitting the streets to film his second special, “Thou Shalt Not Blink 2.” No air dates have yet been announced for the special, which Meily is currently filming — and loading with Ellusionist effects, he told us via e-mail.

The high-energy Bearwin got his start in the show “Naks!” on GMA7. When the show was canceled, he self-produced a street-magic series called “Stealing Minds.” In April of this year, GMA aired “Thou Shalt Not Blink,” his second magic special devoted to eliminating edits. The feature effect of that special was a teleportation from the GMA studios to his home:

Bearwin said he trained under renowned parapsychologist and Inquirer columnist Jaime T. Licauco. He also rehearsed regularly with his team and his wife Lara, the show’s cinematographer. Teleportation requires no supernatural power, Bearwin said. “Anyone can do it,” he said. “You only need to study and train. Licauco’s has a research that shows a lot of documented incidents of teleportation in the country.”

Keep checking back here for more about him, his upcoming special, and why he would rather be called “an entertainer in the art of magic.” Until then, enjoy this card catch:

    Nice one Da Bear!

    I agree on Patrick. It’s really not easy to make a Magic TV Special, considering that he also produce the special by himself, writes the concept, direct and at the same time, to be the magician on the show. That’s one hell of an effort man! But I think that’s fine, ‘coz he’s last 2 magic specials are blockbusters in the Philippines. :)
