Common Close-Up Magic Effects

There are many common close-up magic effects. (Magicians tend not to use the word ‘trick’ as it suggests trying to be clever and ‘get one over’ on the audience. Good magicians try to entertain the audience).

The ‘Ambitious Card’ is a card effect where a chosen card repeatedly rises to the top of a deck of cards even though it is lost in the middle, and without the cards being shuffled or cut.

The ‘Sponge Balls’ is an effect where balls appear and disappear. Usually this involves someone in the audience and the balls suddenly appear in their hands, or even magically multiply.

Effects like these are easy to learn if you are willing to put in some effort. Anyone can search the internet and find books or DVDs that explain how to perform close-up magic, or even buy the props and standard routines.

What props does a close-up magician use?

Close-up magicians use small and relatively normal props such as playing cards, coins, sponge balls and rope. When performing in restaurants and during banquets, magicians often use objects found on the tables, such as napkins and glasses.

Like stage magicians, close-up magicians make the same kinds of impossible things happen with these props; they change, appear, disappear, levitate, break and restore, and penetrate other objects.

What makes close-up magic so astonishing is that it all happens right next to the audience, sometimes while people are actually holding the props!
