iPad Magic in Bali - For an International Event

I was flown to Bali for an incentive trip by Forever Living. The audiences were a mix of different nationalities around the world. The demand for a strong international performer was one of the main reasons I was booked for this, they wanted me to be able to mingle effective with the guests.

The crowd was amazing and they thoroughly enjoyed the magic. It is wonderful to be able to travel and bring my magic around the world.

Thank you so much for this opportunity!

Livestream on Lazada: Doing Magic and Sharing More About Aveeno

I had the wonderful opportunity to co-host a Lazada Livestream for Aveeno! The icing on the cake was that I was able to co-host it with the very charismatic Kelly Latimer who made my first livestream experience such a breeze.

In this livestream, I share about the different products that Aveeno has as well as how it benefited me. As a magician, I use my hands a lot and it is very important that they stay moist and hydrated. The Aveeno skin relief hand cream is great for me as it is non-oily and neutral in aroma.

I also made some of these items appear with magic and added a touch of humour and surprises with my magic.

It was wonderful working with the talented Kelly Latimer and the tech crew behind this production. The livestream felt like a breeze for me and I thoroughly enjoyed it! I am certainly looking forward to my next opportunity to do so!

Performing Magic in Japan right here in Singapore

Performing virtual magic since the outbreak of COVID19 has been a fabulous ride! Ever since live events have been restricted to minimise the spread of the virus, I took my magic on a virtual platform with huge success.

Till date, I have performed in USA, Australia, Hong Kong, India, Middle East and most recently in Japan without even needing to leave my studio in Singapore.

I performed for Facebook Japan and the reactions were astounding. I utilise tools that I had for maximum engagement and interaction and they enjoyed the show more than they expected!

Here is a short testimonial from the client in our Google Review Page:

Very exciting show. People are running out of on-line entertainment idea, and this is really striking!! I strongly recommend this. People will love this! This is NOT one-way show. Magician is very interactive and got audience involved, so you can enjoy it very much!!!

I hope to share my magic with you through the screen, no matter where you are in this world!

Designing a Virtual iPad Magic Show for Online and Hybrid Events

Constrained by the circumstances of COVID19, there is an impending need to adapt and change the way I perform my iPad Magic.

There are a few concepts in the show that is exemplified in my show with huge amount of success. I currently perform regularly at business meetings, conferences and events virtually.

1. Interaction through a Different Mode

There is a common saying that if the audiences wanted to watch magic, they could easily log on to Youtube to do so without having a need to hire a magician for an online magic show.

However, for magic (contrasted to other art forms like singing and juggling), we have the ability to interact with our audiences.

The challenge now is to make interaction organic rather than forced; I have seen a virtual show where the magician chooses his own card and then proceeds to find it! This type of performance mentality limits what a virtual magic show should be and it showcases the lack of thinking on the magician’s part.

I structure my magic to be easily participative. The magic involves simple instructions and an openness that is at the same level of as if you were in the same room as I was.

Hence to the magician who chose his own card and then find it, a simple solution is to have a member of the audience to say stop as you deal the cards down for a fair selection. (Its easy when you give it more thought!)

2. Personalize Entertainment

A Virtual Show should feel as close as possible like a physical show. In my show, Digital on Digital, I apply 2 layers of personalisation in my show. The first is to add a signage to show that this show is meant for the, and them only. This can also be seen in the shows done by my team, Front Row Seats and Magic on Demand.

On a deeper level, I customize my magic content to showcase the audience’s branding or concepts. In a recent sales networking virtual performance, I programmed and designed various products of the company to be used as part of the magic.

3. Tell a Story

The way I designed my show to encourage engagement and interest was to build a full show with a cogent theme from start to end. This way, the narrative of the performance is easily understood and the audiences are then compelled to the take part in the magic.

While this seems like common sense, many of the virtual shows that I have watched seems like a series of magic demonstration (“Let me show you a trick”), rather than a show. Without a thematic structure to the performance, it makes no difference for the audiences to turn to Youtube and watch a playlist of magic tricks

4. Bonus Tip: Production Value

I take pride in my magic and I also take pride in making sure that the audiences consume the show in the best way possible. All my shows are performed in Meta Illusions’ Studio with photography lighting and a 3 camera set up. This allows me to change the camera angle to showcase the magic in the best view possible. This also prevents digital fatigue where the audiences are facing a static screen view.

Hope you enjoyed my thoughts of Virtual Magic Show! I would love to be a part of your virtual event in the future. For more information, you can drop me an email or visit here!

Staying Home, Staying Safe: An Update in times of COVID19

Hello!

I hope you have been well and going through the difficult time with a hopeful and positive mindset. As of writing, it seems like the situation in Asia is getting slightly better and several other continents have been dampening down on the numbers too.

It has been a while since I have pen my thoughts on this space, and I thought I should document what has transpired in what we can now call an unusual time. This unusual time is filled with uncertainty, many events have been postponed indefinitely and most of them have been cancelled. This is a tough time for anyone in the events industry.

Making a difference in your own way

While the COVID19 situation has caused the world to go into a pause mode, we should look outward if we have the opportunity and privilege to do so. Rather than lamenting about the lack of events (hence income), I am certain there is something we can all do to spread positivity and hope.

I decided to pivot the resources I had to create mask hooks for frontline workers who had to wear mask over a long duration. The extended usage of the mask caused a numbing sensation behind the ears and these 3D Printed Hooks eases the discomfort. I have seen elderly stuffing tissue papers behind their ears to prevent such pain and decided that giving these away was the right thing to do.

I was very luckily that a local newspaper caught on to the story and gave me a feature, which in turn allowed a larger group of people to reach out to me.

Till date, I have sent over 250 pieces of mask hooks to nurses, frontline workers, delivery men and women, security guards, F&B staff and several others. It has been very fulfilling to be able to use the skills I had for my customization magic into a practical use in COVID19.

I think in times like these, rather than focusing on a “me” mentality, asking for likes and shares on Facebook, Instagram and Tik Tok, pushing and selling tickets to online performances or selling books that mass produced and changing only the cover, we should all strive to see what real difference we can make in the real world.

This is the reason why I decided to do something that diverges from my core expertise of magic.

My sentiments is summed by this quote I penned in my personal journal.

“While the light at the end of the tunnel may seem dim and distant, if we turn our light outwards, the journey there together will be illuminated and smoother”

Yours Truly

And that is why I have great respect for mentalist Tom Devoe (See article below) who is doing probono performances for frontliners rather than using his opportunity to make a quick buck.

Is magic still relevant in these times?

More than before, we are starting to consume much more content off the internet. While you can watch several of my iPad Magic footage here, I do not actively perform magic on online streaming platforms. I truly believe the core essence of magic is in its interactive and its ability to connect on a deeper level. While this is not impossible to do over a webcam, performing passively over Zoom or a video streaming channel serves no further participation than watching a prerecorded video on Youtube.

While I have done several shows that I do over the webcam (even prior to the COVID19 situation), it is highly interactive and participative where the audiences watching it plays a large role in pivoting and determining the course of the magic. I enjoy such a performance very much despite it being over a streaming portal.

I was featured on The New Paper and gave my honest thoughts on the situation. While I strongly believe there is room for magic in such difficult times, magicians should be very careful about how they craft their performance. There is nothing more boring than watching a performance that feels like it was pre-recorded, time and effort should be spent in crafting an experience rather than a passive demonstration of sleight of hand.

The Light at the end of the Tunnel

Working from home, practicing stringent hygiene, contract tracing is what we call the “New Normal”.

I think when it comes to entertainment, there is room for adaptation and even possibly creating something innovative because of the current situation.

My team and I are continuously working towards the goal of creating hope through our magic, and in the time to come, we will be more than ready to take on live performances when that happens.

A Gentlemen's Jewelry - Tudor Watch Event

Some weeks ago when Tudor Ambassador Jay Chou came down to Singapore for his concert, I was invited to entertain Tudor’s top VIPs before they left for the concert.

For this event, they were invited to Morton’s Bar in Mandarin Oriental Singapore and was served delicious cocktails and canapés. To bring more delight to their experience, I was asked to engage them with my iPad Magic.

The guests were all expert in fine watches, so I had to work hard to impress them. I designed a piece of magic on the iPad with the Tudor Black Bay Chrono S&G and it had gotten wonderful reactions!

It was an amazing night of food, drinks and magic; I am certain that the guests had an even more amazing experience at the VIP seats of the concert!

Innovation at Apple Store - Thinking about Magic

In the earlier blog post, I shared about the talk I gave at Apple Store Singapore. In this talk, I went over several aspects of innovation and how you can think about creating something innovative.

Today, I would like to share with you more on the end results of my thoughts and creations. I think the term “end result” is a huge misnomer because what you are seeing is a constant work in progress; technologies change, my thoughts shaped by my experience change, and how I feel about my work also changes. These forces me to rethink about these acts.

This is one of my favorites and it is called, “If Money Grew on Trees”:

To close this topic of innovation and creativity, I would like to share with you the act with the lightbulb that I was talking about in the last post.

I would like to share with you how I reimagined the bulb, and this is what I have came out with

Enjoy!

iPad Magic inside the Apple Store Orchard

Being able to perform my magic at the Apple store has been one of my dreams, and I am thrilled to share that this dream has come true.

I was given the opportunity to share my iPad Magic and coding at the Today At Apple session. The talk spanned for an hour and a half in which I spoke passionately about how I got into magic and how I made it my career. I also spoke about how I create and designed my iPad Magic with coding. The audiences got a treat when they were handed out iPads to try the hands on coding exercise where they would learn how to programme magic on their own.

For those who missed out on this talk, I have taken some time to upload snippets of it in my new Youtube channel. Check it out here:

A Celebration of Super Powers

In this Marvel filled age, it is easy to think of someone with super powers as extremely strong, fast and with godlike powers. However, I think Super Powers come from ordinary people doing extraordinary things.

• A teacher who imparts knowledge so that his/her students become wiser, is a super power.

• A simple act of making someone smile, with magic, is a super power.

• A person who holds the lift for you, so that you won’t be late, is showing kindness, and that is a super power.

And the list goes on. If you look around you, you will be pleasantly surprised to see beautiful ordinary people, doing extraordinary things.

Some time ago, I was asked to perform for the Association of People with Special Need’s Charity Dinner. Seated amongst the guests is Senior Minister Sim Ann. This made me very nervous, but I was reminded by a team member that ministers are also ordinary people that does extraordinary things.

This show was a special one to me because in the crowd seated teachers and therapist who are there because they choose to make a difference in the student’s live. They have my full respect for taking on a tremendous task.

The show was very well received with much “wooo”s and “ahhh”s and spontaneous applause. And I truly enjoyed this show because deep in my heart I know I was making a difference to the audiences. See, super powers right?

I woke up the next day with a pleasant surprise with a comment from Senior Minister Sim Ann on my social media.

“Hi Alexander thank you for the amazing performance! I thoroughly enjoyed it like everyone in the room!”

Sim Ann, Senior Minister of State

It really made my day and made me smile :)

F&N Magnolia Taro iPad Magic

It is super fun to create magic for brands. Some time back, I was involved in creating iPad Magic for F&N Magnolia’s Taro Milk. The idea was to incorporate street magic and iPad Magic.

We hit the streets in Orchard Road and did several magic pieces for the passer-bys. We even manage to get a crowd for some of the acts.

At the end of the project, we managed to get 132K Views and 126 Shares on Facebook! This is a huge success for the client and for myself :)

Grand Illusions and Luxury Brands for Chinese New Year Celebrations

One of the best things about performing magic is that I get to interact with brands that I truly love. Last year, I did an event for Dunhill, managed by Lux Asia and they have gotten me back this year for their own Chinese New Year Celebration

In order to create a luxurious feel for the magic, I decided to debut one of my latest illusions called “(Desires) From The Other Dimension”. This piece is a slow and romantic piece about the desire for connection in a strange world. It is great for an event where ambiance and theme is the focus, perfect for Lux Asia.

Recreating History: 25 Years of Chopard's Happy Sport

I always get a thrill when I am asked to recreate brand stories, especially the origin stories. It is inspiring to witness the progression, hard work, set backs and rewards the pioneers of the brands had to face and reap.

When Chopard asked me to design a storyboard to commemorate the 25 Years of their Happy Sport Watches, I could not say no to it. I really wanted to do it because of the values that Chopard hold as a luxury brand (their commitment to 100% Ethical Gold) and that they exist also as a family business (From Karin Scheufele to her children (and current CEOs): Caroline Scheufele and Karl Scheufele).

For this event, I designed a showcase to tell the Chopard’s Brand Story with 4 of my iPads. The audiences consisted of celebrities and socialites. I was really flattered when Zoe Tay remembers me from the previous event where I also performed for a luxury brand.

In fact, Ms Caroline Scheufele herself was present at the event. During the bit where I shared about Karin Scheufele, Ms Caroline Scheufele exclaimed in joy to the audience that that was her mother. It was a really sweet moment for me to be able to create such a precious moment through my magic.

The magic and storytelling was incredibly well received. It was wonderful to be able to share their brand story in an engaging and experiential manner!

Booked by International Luxury Brands: iPad Magic for Moet & Chandon

Peers and laymen often ask me how I get booked by luxury brands like LVMH, Kenzo, Heineken, F1 Paddock Suite, Hennessy, Roger Dubuis, Mercedes Benz and most recently, Moet and Chandon.  

The truth is, I work really hard on creating original content and present them in a manner as original as possible. When compared to other magicians who are trying to intimate the same thing, these discerning high end brands have a keen eye on originality. 

There is no easy way to stay original, more often than not, young magicians who have just started out often copy successful magicians. While they might claim to be original by changing superficial features of their act, like the color of the prop, the bulk of their work is stolen (or as they claim, inspired by) from their predecessors. 

In contrast, it is an uphill challenge to create and innovate being the first-mover, since it is so much easier to copy and intimate the works off the originator. 

Despite these challenges, I have been very fortunate that the high-end brands still recognizes the quality of my work and trust me with their prestigious products for a magic launch. Most recently, I was flown to Colombo to do a session for Moet & Chandon's prestigious guests comprising of the top executives of Hennessy and Moet & Chadon, Socialites and Media. 

The event was a huge success with an the guests were left with an experience like no other. They even requested for an encore performance at the end of the night which I abide to. 

This event was also covered by the local newspapers like The Sunday Times and Esteem Magazine with a special mention of my magic.

All in all, more than just having original materials, I can pat myself on the back for doing a fantastic job. Here is a raving review from the organizer herself:

"Dear Alexander,

Hope you landed safely in Singapore. Just wanted to say THANK YOU. You were the star at our event and our guests absolutely loved you. Your performance was a total hit in Colombo and we have had three inquiries this morning!

Thank You Alexander. Even the media was thrilled to interview you and they called us this morning and complimented your act. We will try secure more events for you in the near future and be in touch with your shortly.

Once again THANK YOU! It was an absolute pleasure to work with you and we look forward to seeing you again in Sri Lanka in the near future.

Warm regards,

Organizer of the Moet & Chandon Event"

 

So it does pay to innovate and be original ;)

iPad Magician: Mercedes Benz The New GLA Launch

The all New Mercedes Benz GLA is a charming, sleek and family friendly car. I was invited to entertain the guests at the launch of the car. 

I specially designed an app on the iPad to make a car model appear. The guests reacted with much delight after seeing the iPad magic. This also gave me a chance to nudge them to check out the real car on display.

Aside from that app, I also designed an iPad Magic app that displays the hashtags of the event and they appear magically in the cards that the guests were holding.

Check out this short video to see the magic and the all New GLA!

And at the end of the event, I got a positive feedback from the organizer and that was a good pat on my shoulder!

“Hi Alexander,

I would like to thank you for the services at the MB GLA launch. The client enjoyed it very much.

Thanks”

Great honour to share my iPad Magic at the car launch!

Restaurant Andre: Gastronomic Circus De La Vida (Curating Food with Magic)

It was truly a great privilege to work with Andre Chiang of Restaurant Andre. This is a 2 Michelin Star Establishment. This man is a master at what he does, and his cool temperament is a huge contrast to say... Gordon Ramsey. 

When you walk into the restaurant, there is an air of poshness but yet unpretentious. I met Andre personally to talk about a collaboration where I would design magic to introduce each dish. This could be in the form of making the dish appear, or a crucial ingredient appear. This was a one day only presentation for Gastronomic Circus De La Vida.

Apart from designing the magic, I was also involved in teaching the waiting staff how to execute the easier magic so that they can do it as well. The magic we created was focused and to the point. Every magic sequence is specific to the dish, there was no need for generic magic in this settle.

On the day itself, I disguised myself as a waiter and greeted the guests. Amongst many things, I made a bottle of wine appear as well as make coffee beans appear out of my phone. Check out this video from a guest from Thailand!

It's magic

Truly a wonderful and enriching experience working and learning from a master from a different discipline.

After the event, I got the feedback, even though the magic was the most expensive part of the event, Pam and Andre(the chefs) said that it was the most impressive and the one that is most worth it. They were really happy with Alex's performance

That brought a smile to my face :)

Relishing Tech Saturday!

Magic has always allowed me to form incredible bonds with others despite the differences in age or language. Last weekend, I was given a fantastic opportunity to do just that at Tech Saturday!

Tech Saturday is an event where technophiles throughout the island gather to experience the latest and coolest tech-exhibitions. Amongst the VR stations and interactive robots, I was given the spotlight on stage, where members of the audience were able to witness the eye-popping visuals that iPad Magic has to offer. I had a fantastic time interacting with a particular child, of whom, bravely volunteered to come on stage with me. His reactions were unforgettable; all the giggling, laughing and clapping from the crowd made a positive impression upon the both of us. What was truly magical for me as a magician was the experience I had with my audience.

Check out the video above to see the highlights of Tech Saturday!

Tech Saturday exemplified the dawn of the age of technology. Traditional forms of conjuring – rabbits and top hats – are gradually rendered obsolete. I believe that only by converging the media, the arts and technology onto a single point can we truly discover the finer side of magic while ensuring that the art of magic remains fresh, exciting and innovative.

Having a jolly good time with my team of extraordinary magicians! Hope all you guys had an awesome week as I have had!
