Programmable LED fans are the latest thing in cosplay technology. The price of admission is pretty steep though. At $400 per fan, it will cost a pretty penny to become a proper wizard. 

If you are like Wong and believe attachment to the material is detachment from the spiritual, buying these would contradict that philosophy. A cosplaying conundrum to be sure. Keep saving up those rupees I guess.

What intrigues me about this is the potential for small-budget films. 

Like, that produces, on what I assume is at best a prosumer camera, a believably impressive effect, and the only drawback is the base being visible. I have to imagine a little compositing to hide the bases until the energy fields go up would be cheaper than CGing the effect for every shot.

HOly shit I need these. 

perhaps you can work the base into the lore like have a prop that looks like the base but without the fan and look like it has exotic runes and just switch to the fans when you need spells
