"How to be a Magician" from Ellusionist czcams.com/video/aJWFrGAA_Ug/video.html
Thank you for your in-depth review. You're a true pillar of this community.
thanks!!!
I remember my firstly real magic book was Bobo's book.& i noticed from age 17 to now 51 it really has grown with me. Every year I was able to find/understand something that I once thought was unattainable for me all of a sudden was within my reach. Put Bobo book in the box.
agreed
David, I saw your review on Ellusionist yesterday. Pretty cool set with objects that even the Shin Lim magic kit doesn't have!
agreed
Soo Psyched to get mine this Thursday 🤞🏼, Keep up the great work David, by far the best magic reviewer on YT 👍🏼
Wow, thanks!
Been waiting for this review🔥!!! Amazing ❤
Yay! Thank you!
Love the review. Was waiting before I purchased this for a teenager student I have. Thank you!!!!! Love the member section.
thanks Michael !!!
my box came today, I am so excited about it. I know how to do most of the tricks already, but now I get to learn a few others and maybe get a few more or new ideas on those and the few new ones to me.
Have fun!
Hi David, what a phenomenal review! It is thorough, thoughtful and informative! Thank you for all you do!
Glad it was helpful!
Sounds better than I was expecting..! Can’t wait to receive it in the mail…
Thanks 🙏😃
did you watch my other unboxing? on the kickstarter?
This kit would have made me progress much faster when I was a beginner
Long after the price is forgotten the quality remains. Go for it, this kit rocks!
Long life to Magic Orthodoxy 🇫🇷.
thanks LOLO
Wow thx for all the videos!
My pleasure!
So I already purchased the Ellusionist.. "How To Be A Magician", and "How To Read Minds" kits. Now there is this one which I am strongly considering as well as I also see there is a "How To Read Minds 2" kit launching soon.
It's going to be a while before we see it
Great review. The kit looks awesome!
It does!
Just got my order, and I got totally different decks in the box. The invisible deck is bicycle, and I think the force deck is also a red bicycle instead of blue Cohorts, not sure yet as its sealed and not marked/noted. If the placement is the same it should be.... I'm sure this wont be confusing to a newcomer at all if all the videos reference the different color decks~
...weird
@@magicorthodoxy Yea, the invisible deck is the one from Murphy's magic as it still has their sleeve around the rider back tuck. The only deck from your video that mine included was the marked blue cohorts on the right side. I assume they ran out and just substituted, but definitely makes things a little more confusing. Especially when like in my case get multiple kits at once and have 6 or so new gaff decks at once to learn and differentiate.
they did toss in an extra Mystery deck (Black Water Ranch) with the overall order, I assume as a form of unspoken compensation or something.
I loved the How to read minds box set so this seems to be a good thing as well
yup !!!
another great kit from Ellusionist … expect mine to arrive today ….
(They should explain how to access the tutorials (like you did) … I had no clue when I got their first kit release)
Thanks for the review David 👍👍
did you see my preview unboxing?
@@magicorthodoxy I did … and you explain it, but Ellusionist doesn’t
I’ve also heard that there’s going to be a “How to read minds “ box 2 coming soon
in a few hours !!!
It's up and running on Kickstarter I had to jump on it to get the earlybird deal, it got funded in 5 minutes.
Awesome review looks like a great magic set👍😊👍😊😊👍
It is!
I bought this kit - My favorite part is the invisible deck - I am a beginner and the instruction was fantastic - the filming was great and I learned a lot of information from the videos that gave me insight on how to do better in my magic perfomances. I am a High-School teacher with no interest in going pro, but I love magic as a hobby and want to do it right. I was not a fan of the coins as several had poor/uneven weathering effects (I had bought a set of the regular pirate coins to have as practice coins - they were all evenly. stained.) The decks used are Cartmundi Cohorts out of Belgium - so are commonly used in Europe I believe. I have several Bicycle invisible decks I have gotten - either through a Tannen's Mystery box or from Penguin. I have to say that the Ellusionist deck is the smoothest working Invisible deck I have used. I have bought several of the Cartmundi decks from Ellusionist and I prefer the feel of them to the standard Bicycle deck.
Thanks for being a new member !!!
This looks like a great value! Pretty cool stuff! Looks like great quaility.
It does!
@@magicorthodoxy great company ellisionist . Definitely a winner 🏆 btw David do you have a favorite ACAAN?
Interesting tricks! In the future they should put the performances as first on their drive. Wonder what other tricks they can come up with.
there's plenty to choose from
Looking at the theme of close up walk around type magic it would be interesting to see another utility like a watch or wallet. That being said I think they made it well rounded as is. Something that I enjoy and dislike about the other magic kits is that some of the props are heavy hitters for performance based shows if not at quality so kids now have a pile of novelty props and a pile of props that if they actually learned them would instantly need to go buy a real set. This kit is ready to go amd that makes it a win amd including the unique coins. Thank you for the review!!
right, like do we now associate "magic" as mostly card tricks?
@@magicorthodoxy Even as I browse the interwebs we have card magicians and cardistry at the nost popular. So much so that as far as I understand that most of the time on tiktok if they see cards they scroll because it is too much. Not to say it's bad. I love card stuff. But as a side note why can't Fantasma (magic kits) include an actually deck of cards. I have a phantom deck that does multiple effects but they are cheap cards. No fans or flourishes. Stick together. Just pay for the standard card stock. 😆 Like Chris Ramsey. He made a puzzle box and included a top tier deck. Shin Lim did it. The Cohorts here. Hopefully we are moving towards this as a mainstay.
I think they've probably got it about right for the market it's pitched at. Thanks David.
thanks Gary
That kit is way cool!
:D
That’s a pretty good magician’s kit! I don’t need it and I still want it! Lol
that's how I felt - LOL
I was really happy with this set. I love the acaan routines. The only thing I would have changed was having more structure to the videos. There wasn't really a welcome to the kit video or a start here video. So I found myself just watching stuff randomly.
I made one - it's on the kickstarter page
@@magicorthodoxy Awesome! I'll be sure to watch it
Excelente review, una pena que no lo pueda adquirir e mi pais!!

Hi David, great review, very thorough. Thank you so much. I love the how to be a magician set I bought. Found some things in there I use to this day.
This was a long review and my attention deficit sometimes makes me miss certain things. When it comes to the gaff coins, do they match the pirate, coin or if not what denominations are they? I would love a full set of gaffed purse coins. Or I actually like their Cosa Nostra coin better.
I honestly think the personalized instruction would be worth the cost of the kit even if nothing was included. I remember the days of buying box sets of DVDs for 120 or $150.
they match the traditional pirate coin that "E" has always sold
@@magicorthodoxy that is awesome, I just looked on their website for a set of these coins, I don't think it exists, except for in their Kit.
@@chaddavis1 ellusionist.com/products/pirate-coin
@@magicorthodoxy I appreciate the effort. Thank you very much. That being said, the link you provided only gave a link to the pirate coins, not to flippers and expanded shells.
I think a thumb tip should be included in every magic kit I also believe that a thumb tip should cost $100! There are so many things that can be done with that people just don't understand we're talking about close up miracles, mentalism hypnotism and so many more
It's so good
I just got Magic 101 by theory11, but have yet to dive into what it actually contains. Would you know if this Ellusionist kit contains many similar beginner tricks? Would it be worth picking up both?
I always believe "more is better"
I'm sorry, but my face looks bad enough without it being melted. I do love James Brown though! That Living In America song was awesome!
was it?
Get down!
I hope the kit is better then the bait & switch they pulled with the Lava card addon (just got my KS order today) I’m really not impressed with them right now
I got LAVA, but have not looked at it yet

Can you pls do flight by vortex magic and Michael afshin ty
I hope I get to
@@magicorthodoxy Ty
Great review
This is a great kit to buy for your kid then end up keeping for yourself. 😄
agreed
I'm sure you'll get your money's worth for the tutorials alone but I get turned off by the odd brand cards, (Why not Bicycle?), the weird coins, (Why not half dollars?).
Still, it looks class for someone learning real magic.
weird coins are universal, can be used anywhere in the world - everyone understands "pirate coin" lol
@@magicorthodoxy Perhaps magicians know "pirate coins"....the fact is, if you're doing an effect for people on the street and pull out strange coins or cards, they just take for granted they are gaffed. Appearing to do magic with everyday "normal" things will always play better.
But I will concede, a GOOD magician can create miracles for people regardless if they look gaffed.
I really hope Peter brings the goods with HTRM 2 :(

Do you get the pot of jam in the kit?
sadly mine was missing
@@magicorthodoxy was it supposed to be in the kit?
ok, I am confused ...what ????
@magicorthodoxy are you supposed to get the pot of jam with the kit? I know you get the effect on the video but does it come with the actual prop for most kits?
no jam - I show you everything the kit comes with in the box
How do you download the tricks tutorial to your phone ??
youd hook your phone to a computer with a cable and drag them over
@@magicorthodoxy does it have a QR code for a quick scan and it takes u straight to the tutorial ? Or second opinion
did you watch my video? 3:46
@@magicorthodoxy I did but don’t understand… I never downloaded anything and I’m 22
@@prestondoss2699 there is nothing to download - the files are on the usb drive
Im not crazy about the box and marketing art :/ I feel it should be more blacks and reds :)
Cool
yup !!!
@@magicorthodoxy you and KTM moto Cross biker illusionist magician church member friend Bob Scofield friend Sense 1980s he likes to say yup and ok ps once in while he will talk typing long sentences but if he doesn't have to then he does like you Great mind's think alike
Id suggest the box of powers from penguin over this for the price. If this was $60 it would make more sense. The pirate coins are a waste of money imo they scream magic props.
they use pirate medallions so that the kit becomes universal to all countries
what really annoys me about these kits is that the go through kickstarter. Sorry but that is sooo unnecesarry, because of course they will be founded and you can only pay with a credit card which I do not have. So if i wanted to back those project up i would need to invest much more moeny since i would also need to pay for the credit card. Thats not cool at all
you can always get it from Ellusionist directly ellusionist.com/products/how-to-do-insane-magic-tricks-1
@@magicorthodoxy i know, however as i said i cant get the benefits and have to wait so much longer and its way more expensive than too
so happy I didn't buy it .... the routines are probably the only thing I would buy BUT this is so over priced thank you this is kind of click bait from E I hate when brad gives these projects the green light
again, it's for beginners with no prior experience
@@magicorthodoxy good point I think all that is available on penguin magic for probably to be fair around the same price im guessing thats a Kueppers gaff idk I appreciate it as always ty David
Ellusionist lost the respect of the magic community after the back to black campaign so it only makes sense now they are marketing to newbies. They have to as they've burned too many bridges. Still no reason this was a kickstarter though other than to advertise it.
HMMM, I dont remember back to black
Back to black was a campaign that turned sour and was completely out of our control. We did intend to do something cool, but as we explained we had major website issues turning from one website to shopify's platform. We literally couldn't turn the website back on (SSL certificate issues). We did explain it in a blog post - that it wasn't the "f-you" to customers that some speculated about on forums. But the damage was done. Hopefully in the last 3 years since then, we've overdelivered with our products and won the affection of most buyers back.
@@magicorthodoxy I think the "back to black" was when Ellusionist changed the look of their website....during that time no one knew what was happening because you couldn't access the site so no one knew what was happening going w the company or even their downloads.
From what I understand Ellusionist didn't give anyone a headsup that their site would be down..... one day the site wasn't there leaving everyone wondering what the heck is going on..... while it may or may not have been a publicly stunt....it left a back taste for customers.
Sad to see another kit made of beginners and not professionals. This is not a professional kit. Props may be better quality for kids, but this is not a pro kit.
Pros would not buy kits. They would buy individual tricks. If there were a “kit” for pros, the price would be very high.
No, I can envision adults using prop tricks depending on what fits their style and performance. In the words of Richard Ribuffo, “You’re a magician, you have weird stuff.” In other words, nobody should have any problem with what you have as a magician.
this is a set for beginners but with "pro quality props" something that doesn't exist on the market right now. We all have to start somewhere
@@magicorthodoxy penguin magic, the box of powers.
I just today received a notification for Ellusionists kickstarter of How To Read Minds 2. I’m considering buying that, along with HTRM1 as an add-on. Do you recommend?
Only if it looks like something you would use
So I just got mine in the mail and mine came with a standard Wal-Mart red Bicycle Deck "Not Marked", Bicycle Invisible Deck, and Cohort one way force deck. I was expecting all Cohorts because now I can't switch out my one way force deck because they don't match. My other complaint is the quality and feel of the vanishing headphones. I love the idea and the concept but anyone that has seen or felt real Airpods will know immediately that they are fake. They are significantly lighter and feel very cheep in my opinion. I am disappointed because I love Ellusionist products and own a few of there other magic kits.
I dont let anyone hold the headphones - where did you buy yours from?
@@magicorthodoxy Ellusionist website directly
@@magicorthodoxy I agree I think the headphone trick is great but I wouldn't let anybody hold them just because I think that if they did it would automatically ruin the trick
