Learn working close-up magic and sleight-of-hand illusions straight from the repertoire of veteran full-time performer, Ed Ellis!
With over 25 years of experience dazzling Hollywood, TV, and sports celebrities (plus performances at Las Vegas’ Caesar’s Palace and lectures at the Magic Castle), Ed Ellis is known as the “World’s Fastest Hands.” This DVD offers material suitable for both the beginning and advanced card worker.
Routines & Techniques Included:
- Materialize: A visual stunner involving the seemingly impossible appearance of a card, repeated for double impact.
- Aces Escape: A classic plot where cards mysteriously escape to the top of the deck.
- Illusion or Reality: A signed card multiplies, then vanishes and instantly changes into four Aces that can be shown front and back!
- Jumping Jacks & Kubota Jacks: Two powerful, ungaffed packet effects using pure sleight-of-hand.
- Ellis Fan Flourish Control & Billboard Display: An eye-catching top-card control and one-handed four-card display perfect for an opener.
- The Great Escape: An ambitious finale where a card immediately escapes after being pushed into the deck—it seems impossible!
- Bonus: An offbeat and cool double lift taken face-up from the center of the deck!
Also covered are foundational moves like the double lift, Elmsley count, and Tilt, along with multiple ways to handle a card with flair.
