Expert at the card table (2) 2021 Luke Jermay(VIP)

Card magicians…rejoice! We’ve assembled some of the finest card magicians from around the world for an online one-day convention celebrating everything playing cards. You’ll learn from established card stars as well as emerging talent. There will be move monkeys and refined technicians. There will be classic effects and new innovations. By the end of this session, we guarantee that you’ll think about card magic in an entirely new way. And it all happens on July 24th, 2021.

There is something wonderful about coming together with like-minded card magicians and sharing a full day full of content, right from the comfort of our homes. Last year we did the first ever Experts at the Card Table Virtual Convention and it was an enormous hit. Will we see you for Round Two?

The whole event will be streamed online and can be downloaded afterwards.

Ben Earl – Blood, Sweat and Tears – SessionTwo(VIP)

Join Ben Earl for three card magic sessions that are not for the faint hearted—or those remotely sensitive to the horrors of extreme pasteboard manipulation. These sessions are for the maniacs, the obsessives and the lunatics who take perverse pleasure from learning advanced sleight of hand with playing cards.

Do you want to develop a world class touch, flow and technical ability? Do you want to learn secrets, skills and effects so advanced they will make hairs on the back of your neck burst into flames? For the first time ever, Ben reveals the true secrets behind his technical mastery. It’s within reach of anyone… but it will require your blood, sweat and tears.

Some of you will cry, others will roar a triumphant roar as their sleight of hand is catapulted to the heavens and praised by the Gods—a chance to escape the sheer hell of ‘satisfactory’ card handling.

With no gimmicks or extreme angles, everything can be used in the real world… for those brave enough to try!

Under a Spell – David’s in-depth work on the subject of Spellbound. Through and Through – many of his best approaches to this classic plot of Coins Through Table.

The Greater Magic Video Library Teach-In Sessions 8 – Himber Rings

The Eighth Volume in the Greater Magic Video Library Teach-In Series is the Himber Rings. From an idea of Perci Diaconis and introduced into the magic world by Richard Himber, these two gentlemen have given us a wonderful and professional magical effect! Imagine borrowing three separate rings, from three different spectators in the audience and then taking these rings and being able to link them all together and then passing them out to confirm that the rings belong to the spectators and that they are all linked! The performer then unlinks the rings and passes the same

 

rings back to their respective spectators. This video teaches you the different presentations of all of the performers on this video. It also teaches you the handling of the rings and bits that the performers pass on to those interested in adding this classic routine to their acts. Enjoy Billy McComb’s classic routine, along with one of Europe’s top mentalist, Ted Lesley, who features this in his professional act. Karrell Fox and Pete Biro give many tips and tricks on the routines and no one can simplify effects better than Karrell Fox did! Also enjoy Jonathan Pendragon’s fabulous stage and close-up routines of this perplexing piece of magic! If you ever wanted to add this routine to your act, this is the information you need to have and to learn to present it correctly. Add this video to your library for education and research material!

Alex Elmsley Lecture

Alex Elmsley Lecture

Alex Elmsley was one of the most influential thinkers in the history of card magic. When he passed away in 2006 (has it been that long?), we lost a true legend, and all of us lost the opportunity to spend time with him. 

But in a way, we still can. Late in life Colin Rose filmed an intimate lecture containing a mixture of classics, and unpublished Elmsley material. This is material NOT included in his seminal books or his earlier videotapes. This is material mostly shown here for the first time.
