What it looks like in the room

Reading about close-up magic is a poor substitute for watching a room react to it. Start with the reel, then the frames underneath it.

The reel plays from Vimeo and only loads once you press play.

  • Richard Stooker in black tie at a Masters of LXRY and GASSAN event
    Masters of LXRY, with GASSAN
  • Playing cards being dealt into a guest's hands
    Cards handed over, which is where it usually starts
  • Richard Stooker photographed in black and white, arms folded
    The person who answers the email
  • A fan of playing cards held open, the King of Hearts turned to the front
    The working end of the job
  • Guests at a hotel reception watching a close-up effect at arm's length
    A hotel reception, no stage and no slot
  • Richard Stooker photographed in black and white, hand at his chin
    And the one who walks into the room
