BUT CAN YOU REALLY DO THIS?

Yes. We guarantee it.

Unreal Card Magic will teach YOU how to do the most face-melting, awe-inspiring, scream-inducing card magic on the planet.

  • You don’t need special hands.
  • You don’t need any special ability.
  • You don’t need any prior knowledge, skill or dexterity.

We will teach you EVERYTHING you need to know to absolutely blow people away.

Even if you’re short on confidence, or lacking in people skills, then Unreal Card Magic can help you thrive.

… And it’s all possible with a normal (or borrowed) deck of cards. So no matter where you are, as long as you have a deck of cards in your pocket… It’s f**king game on. 

beginners and pros - learn unreal card magic

COMPLETE BEGINNERS… READ HERE

Showing someone a card trick is the fastest way to friendship, admiration or envy.

Whether you want to be or not, you’ll be the most interesting person in the room.

Because magic breaks down barriers, builds confidence and opens doors.

If you’re a beginner, this project will teach you everything you’ll ever need. So you can learn it fast – and learn it easily.

(Scroll down to see what’s in the box.)

PRO MAGICIANS… READ HERE

If you’re a pro, this project will change your life.

Is that hype? … No! We’re dead serious. 

We’ve been selling the secrets to magic tricks for over 2 decades & have served over 1million customers. We know what good magic is. 

The theory, nuances and tips inside the project are worth thousands of dollars, because that’s how much it would cost you to try and find this level of insight on your own.

It would cost you thousands of dollars and years of your life… But not with this.

Unreal Card Magic will redefine ‘how’ you currently perform. You’ll become smoother, better, more fooling and more confident during your execution of these card tricks.

  • Ben will show you THE exact angle to hold the deck to make your sleights more invisible.
  • Ben will show you WHERE to put your feet to make your top change undetectable.
  • He will even show you the PSYCHOLOGY required to make all your switches imperceptible.

There is so much gold in this project, you’ll kick yourself that you didn’t have this 10 years ago… We definitely are. 

WHAT’S IN THE BOX?

  • A custom Unreal Card Magic art piece (a real conversation starter)
  • 2 x Premium decks of playing cards (these are the ones that Ben uses personally) 
  • The long-awaited WTF book, hidden in the base of the art piece
  • Access to hours of video tutorials explaining everything from basic handling to fooling techniques and scream-inducing tricks.
This is how the packaging will look.

WHO IS THIS FOR?

Unreal Card Magic makes the perfect gift for anyone, aged 12 & up:

  • Your Boyfriend/Girlfriend/Husband or Wife (Give them some new party tricks)
  • Your Son or Daughter (Help them build confidence)
  • That Nephew you forgot to get a Xmas gift for. (You’ll be known as the person who ignited their passion)
  • The person in your life who is difficult to buy for.
  • You (Often the best gifts are the ones to yourself!).

If you’re short on confidence, or lacking in people skills (especially after a few years of being locked inside!), then Unreal Card Magic can help you thrive.

We’ve curated this project to help you learn only what you need to know and nothing more.

Tricks that are battle-tested in the real world. These tricks always work – and they always will.

To prove it, we filmed this project in New York City. The harshest environment to perform in… Here’s why.

We’re gonna help you skip 10 years of tuition by teaching you only the best of everything.

  • No wasted time.
  • No wasted money.
  • No mistakes to make… We’ve made them for you.

You’re skipping straight to the good stuff and only the good stuff.

These tricks have been tested to death… And are still standing. 

that is not possible gif

YOU WILL NOT GET CAUGHT

Brand-new magicians are always worried to show strangers magic, in case they get caught using trick cards. But the material we’re teaching you in Unreal Card Magic starts clean, ends clean & the deck is completely normal.

After the trick, if they ask to see the cards, they can.

  • They’ll see nothing.
  • They’ll find nothing.

With no clear explanation in sight, the only possibility – is that you did the impossible.

WATCH A FULL PERFORMANCE OF PAPER SWITCH… BEN ROCKS THE GUY

Here’s what we’re talking about… The idea of NEVER getting caught. Spoiler alert, there is a card hidden in Ben’s hand – but watch the guy (spectator), he has no idea.

 project video thumbnail

This random guy we met was a troop leader for the girl scouts – all of which are behind the camera, watching… and they’re fooled too. They had no idea.

Not only is this an incredible trick that YOU CAN DO. But it’s also a demonstration of HOW effective Ben’s tips and nuances are.

He can make sleight of hand, invisible. 

And now you can too. 

BUT CAN YOU REALLY DO THIS?

Yes! You can. And it’s because of this hack…

THE HACK TO LEARNING ANY NEW SKILL

Learning any new skill (like magic) is a bell curve. You rush the basics and quickly try to consume everything in your path.

You try to learn as many tricks as possible – but as the months roll on, you realize that not all tricks are good tricks. And more is not better.

So you find yourself retracing your steps to see what you missed. You go back to what works. And you realize that less is more.

All of that middle bit is a waste of time, money and effort.

So we’re going to save you a lot of time & a lot of money learning things you can’t use – and just take you straight to the good bit.

THE HACK: Learn only what’s necessary and you will learn much faster.

learn everything you need gif
  • Instead of teaching you 20 ways to hide a card, we’ll be showing you one. The best one.
  • Instead of the 5 techniques of false shuffling, we’ll teach you THE most deceptive one. 
  • Instead of teaching you 200 tricks that you’ll struggle to remember when put on the spot – we’ll teach you our favorite 12
At the intersection of tricks that create the most impact, and those that are easy to perform is Unreal Card Magic. We think it’s the best of the best.

You’ll learn 12 tricks that create THE most impact but are the easiest to perform.

years in the making

Hey, I’m Geraint Clarke, CEO of Ellusionist.com

For decades Ellusionist has been the gateway for people to learn incredible magic tricks.

We’ve been able to raise over $1million on Kickstarter and delivered tens of thousands of beginner magic kits to people all over the world.

People just like you have taken these secrets and built confidence, enhanced their careers & found passion in life.

To their friends, family & co-workers, they are now legends.

But there is something we haven’t done – until now. A dedicated project on the best card magic in the world.

Card magic has come a long way in the last 20 years. The cutting-edge techniques being developed today are like Michelin-star recipes.

They mix magic, timing, misdirection, movement & psychology to create certified miracles.

In 2021, I reached out to the best card magician in the world. And it’s taken almost 2 years for me to convince him to share his secrets – with you.

When I say this guy is the best in the world, and this is what you should be learning, whether you’re a beginner or pro – I mean it.

Being with Ellusionist for 8 years now, I’m lucky enough to see thousands of magic tricks per year. To meet hundreds of magicians per year. To work with the best in the business.

Ben was my white whale.

His magic is what I spend my own money on.

His books are on my Christmas List – and after 17 years of learning magic  – it’s this material, the tricks & subtleties that you’ll learn in this project – that I’m currently doing.

I set out to bring you the best and I have, finally.

ADD ON: The ‘Primary Movement’ (Coin Trick)

If you could only learn one coin trick, for the rest of your life. Make sure it’s this. 

With Primary Movement, they are holding your wrists, you aren’t wearing sleeves – and they don’t look away.

The coin instantly teleports from your closed fist, into your other, empty hand.

It doesn’t get more powerful than this. A must-learn for any magic enthusiast.

Primary Movement can be done with other small objects – like someone’s borrowed ring.

This takes it to a whole new level again… and it means you can do it anywhere, even if nobody has a coin on them.

ADD ON: Hand Intelligence Moves *Expansion Pack* – Taught by Ben Earl

There’s an effortlessness that some pros have – it comes from hand intelligence.

Pro chefs can cook an egg, even though it’s basic, better than you. Because their ability and understanding is at such a high level, that the basics will flow more naturally.

The same can be said for magic. Although none of this is necessary for Unreal Card Magic, it can help those willing to expand their skills – making their handling of playing cards much smoother and more natural.

And natural = fooling. 

In this expansion video, Ben Earl will teach you the:

  • Diagonal Palm Shift
  • SWE shift
  • One-handed Shift
  • Colour change
  • Cascade control
  • Charlier Cut
  • Revolution Cut
  • TG Murphy Deck Flip
  • The Clip Shift
  • Single card toss
  • One-handed Top Palm
  • Waterfall
  • Pressure Fan
  • Faro Shuffle

You’ll get all of Ben’s thoughts, tips and theory on all of these moves.

These things are fun to practice, fun to do and can level up your card-handling skills.

ADD ON: *3 Month Trial Pass** The Family… Save OVER $30

the family 3 month pass

The art of magic has traditionally been a secret passed down from master to apprentice, hidden in shadows – or even more invisibly, written in books.

Ben Earl has taken this knowledge, combined it with his own original thinking, and created a community of astounding quality that makes learning magic exciting again.

The Family is a digital membership that goes deeper into magic than ever before.

This add-on will give you access to more than 50 hours of film-quality content and over 150 videos of performances, explanations, masterclasses, documentaries, podcasts and behind-the-scenes footage, with new videos added every month! There is also an entire community of members getting involved in 8 bespoke live events a month!

Your 3-month trial pass to The Family puts you in Ben’s inner circle with weekly access to talk directly to Ben, ask him questions and perfect your skills at a much quicker pace.

Your 3-month trial pass has a retail price of about $84, but you’ll get it for $50. That’s $34 OFF. A 40% saving.

We have only 1 stretch goal. Just 1 more thing we’d love you to have.

If we cross $250,000 – this add-on item will be unlocked.

We wanted to make Unreal Card Magic affordable for everyone. So we had to take off other powerful tricks from the main project…  It was already so much to learn. 

Unreal Card Magic 2 will give you 10 more, powerful tricks.

The One

An impossible transformation that takes place with just a single card in their hands while the rest of the deck is in their pocket! The performer holds nothing.

Manifest

A card is placed face up for all to see, even though it is not covered and remains out in the open, it changes into their selection without anyone seeing when or how.

Superego

The deck is shuffled by a spectator and they freely name a card. The performer skilfully finds all four Aces from the shuffled deck.. and then their named card.

Red Handed

A prediction is made. The deck is shuffled by a spectator and one is freely chosen… all without the performer touching the deck. Under these impossible conditions, the prediction is correct.

The In-between

A deeply mysterious visual discovery of a selected card which happens in their hands and under the cleanest conditions.

Head Box

A card is plucked from their mind and then physically plucked from the boxed deck!

Fingerprints

A startling and extremely direct transformation of a card which is apparently located by a spectators fingerprints.

Octopus 2

An ultra clean handling of Out of Sight Out of Mind. This is an advanced handling of Octopus from UCM 1.

Three Way Squeeze 

A card is freely named and every card slowly vanishes into thin air leaving only their named selection.

Real ACAAN 

A number and card are freely named. The spectator shuffles the deck, deals down to their number and their named card is there! It’s that clean!

This project will also contain many theoretical and technical touches/advancements that build on the knowledge from Unreal Card Magic 1.

If we cross $250,000 we will open up Unreal Card Magic 2 & kidnap Ben to film this immediately for backers of this project to get as an add-on. Giving you early, VIP access to acquire something we probably weren’t going to release for at least a couple of years.

shipping & fulfillment

DOMESTIC ORDERS (USA)

These will be shipped out using USPS or FedEx (cheapest option) and are likely to arrive before Xmas (Estimated ship date December 2023 for early bird orders). Obviously, we can’t account for weather warnings, USPS delays, or natural disasters, but rest assured that we’re looking to ship these out just in time for the Holidays.

As soon as it leaves our warehouse, our job IS NOT done. We have a fully-staffed, responsive Customer Support team that can help replace any damaged or missing packages should the unexpected occur.

Ellusionist Warehouse Photo
This is our 5,000 sq ft Warehouse in Petaluma, CA. Everything will ship from here.

INTERNATIONAL ORDERS (EVERYWHERE ELSE IN THE WORLD)

We approximately ship 70,000 packages per year to all corners of the globe, so believe us when we say that your order is in safe hands.

If you do make an order, please be aware that some orders may be subject to VAT or brokerage charges applied by YOUR individual countries. Ellusionist or Studio52 has no control over this.

This is a natural cost of importing goods that we don’t benefit from (we don’t see a penny of it), but we would like you to be aware of it so you don’t get a shock when your Unreal Card Magic arrives.

Sometimes in life, one-off international orders are a necessity to get the goods. We’d love to be everywhere, but we can’t, so we do rely on your global support.

ships in time for xmas

This project is promoted by Jellop, the ad tech power behind the best Kickstarters with 3,500+ successful Kickstarter projects with over $1B raised between them.

We were named one of  ProductHype’s  Best Kickstarter Projects of 2023.

Risks and challenges

Our last Kickstarter ran into massive challenges with electronic manufacturing. Something we overcame, but delayed our campaign by months. The beauty of this campaign is that there are no electronics. No gimmicks. The cards are normal, the book is normal and the packaging is wild – but should be easy to print. We don’t foresee any challenges in this – and all videos will be digitally accessible thanks for a unique code tutorial card inside each box. Meaning we don’t even have to load USB sticks, which can cause a fail rate of about 2%. But know this, even if something does occur, we are always quick to communicate and work hard to give people early access to videos and tutorials while they wait. So they can always see the value of what they’ve ordered.
