Close up Magic for Children

Starring Ethan Leeds, Russell Leeds and Jeremy Le Poidevin with a Guest Appearance by Craig Petty.

Children's magicians normally shy away from close-up magic for a variety of reasons.  This download aims to show how you can vastly increase your income by adding close-up magic to the list of services you offer your clients. Weddings, close-up shows, festivals, restaurants and more - there are dozens of different ways close-up magic can be used to increase your business.
Although close-up magic is normally considered difficult, in this video, Russell and Ethan show you how you can perform close-up magic without needing lots of technical skill.  Twelve routines are included, and many of these would work as well in a full show as they would in close-up up making the content of this download even more valuable.
 
Russell and Ethan also take part in a 20-minute discussion about how to get close-up work as a children's magician, and how close-up magic can change your business model.  Finally, special guest Craig Petty tips three of his most closely guarded creations designed specifically for children.
 
The routines:
• Mr Slime - a tub of slime is given life and turned into a little man that children love. 
• Psychic Paper - Ethan tips one of his favourite routines which mixes strong visuals and an engaging presentation that mystifies and entertains children.
• Balloon-A-Bike - The perfect routine to perform for the birthday child which ends with a very magical giveaway.
