What will he teach?

“The Five Aspects Of Close Up”

Mark will discuss five main situations that close-up is used in:

• Walkabout (where all audience members are standing),
• Table hopping (working at large dinner function tables),
• Restaurant (entertaining at small tables in restaurants and hotel dining rooms),
• Formal close-up show (one off set piece magic on a close up pad),
• Trade show (using close up to promote companies).

For each of the five sections, Mark will be presenting and explaining at least three suitable effects including:

• The Reds And The Blacks – a neat and effective combination of the Submarine Card and Oil And Water
• Reality Check – killer coin routine for walkabout work with a stunning finish
• Assembly Point – a cool coin matrix with a difference
• Parade Of The Kings Remixed – a clever re-working of the classic card prediction effect that is smooth and convincing
• Mindreading Teddy– a great example of how you can take a random object and devise a memorable routine with it
• Co-inci-mental – an up-in-hands commercial colour changing deck routine which is fast and to the point
