This dvd provides all the information for you to learn the 'secret/s' of Crowe's routine and to also
begin to play with a zombie ball without the use of the usual gimmick.
It might also serve
as an introduction to learning to create illusions without any gimmicks...ie with only the body.
Crowe does illusions with/without gimmicks: sometimes his body movements alone create the illusion/s
and sometimes the object being manipulated is gimmicked. Being able to switch cleanly and seamlessly
between the two is one aspect of Crowe's routine.
This makes for unusually strong magic
illusions and is probably one reason this engaging, well-travelled and experienced Australian
performer calls himself an "Unusualist"
Raymond Crowe (on this dvd) provides clear and
detailed demonstrations augmented with clear and informative dvd camera angles, editing and sound
quality. Crowe is a trained mime and - as a teacher - is also an excellent person to introduce the
use of body movements/physical body awareness into the performing actions of magicians. Magicians
are first and foremost actors.
Integrating Crowe's learnings into your routines may well be
a long-term route/endeavor.
