Decades before the term "special effects" was coined, audiences of the newborn cinema were witnessing spectacular screen illusions, courtesy of the medium's first master magician: Georges Melies. Melies' astounding employment of double exposure, makeup, editing and theatrical trickery still command the power to surprise and bewilder and can now be seen for the first time with crystal clarity in fifteen beautifully restored films, accompanied by newly composed scores. Includes the documentary "Georges Melies: Cinema Magician," plus the Melies shorts "An Impossible Voyage" (struck from an original hand-colored negative), "The Black Imp," "The Cook in Trouble," "The Living Playing Cards," and 11 more!

DISC ONE: The Spot Card Surrounded: Merlin takes this standard and makes it a modern classic. Merlin tips his handling, timing and pacing with this piece revealing all the work, including how to perform the effect completely surrounded. Colour Changing Handkerchief: If you have ever wanted to add this effect to your act, you've come to the right teacher! Merlin dissects everything from using the right gimmicks to dyeing your own silk handkerchiefs. Jumping & Crawling Flower: Imagine a flower suddenly appears on your lapel, jumps from one lapel to the other and then slowly and eerily crawls back to the other side! The perfect bit of business to give your audiences the experience of magic without saying a word! The Hydrostatic Glass: Water in a glass tumbler remains suspended upside down with no visible means of support and at the audience's command it falls into a champagne bucket. DISC TWO: The Silk Fountain: The beautiful overflowing 'fountain' of silks from the performer's bare hands is a stage classic. Now you can get the in-depth work on table-loads vs. body loads, a permanent set-up vs. the loose silks set-up and an ingenious use of magnets for the best of both worlds. The Professor's Nightmare Complete: A white ball visibly transforms into three different sized ropes, ropes are transformed into the same size and finally they are stretched into one long piece. The Salt Pour: Brilliant technique combined with a spectacular finish makes this routine an unforgettable audience favourite. Various gimmicks and handlings are examined, the salt vanishes and reappearance is dissected in great detail and the long pour is completely explained. The Butterflies: There is almost NO real work on the classic butterfly trick in print or on video. Now ALL of the work is revealed from various thread handling techniques, rehearsing with and without a thread and various steals for the final 'snow storm' of butterflies is described.

The audience thinks they know how the magician makes the tassels go up and down. Theyre wrong. Beautifully made of real bamboo. Each set comes in a full color box.

The interior of the Magic Wallet has a elastic bands crossed on one side in an "X" formation and two running parallel to each other on the other side (see above). An item placed securely under the "X" ends up under the parallel elastics and vise versa, depending on how you open the wallet. Or, two objects appear to change places. Additionally, the exterior of the wallet has four pockets, making for convenient storage of credit cards, business cards, recepits, etc. The magic wallet can be used as an everyday wallet or a charming pocket-sized puzzle.
