Close-up Magic is the branch of magic wherein the performer is in close proximity to his/her audience (spectators). In this setting, everyday objects are commonly used such as playing cards, sponges, ropes, silks, rings, pens cups and balls, silverware and others. Close-up mentalism can also fall into this category.
In the Philippines, close-up magic is mostly performed by in-house entertainers such as party clowns and a few mentalists who can do sleight of hand.
Popular close-up conjurers include Dai Vernon, Ed Marlo, Michael Ammar, Daryl Martinez, Jay Sankey to name a few.
