In 2009 Hungary’s Soma won the FISM Grand Prix for stage magic. In this unprecedented and candid documentary, you’ll hear from some of magic’s most influential magicians on what THEY believe is most important in a magic act. You’ll hear from Soma, Shawn Farqhuar, Wayne Houchin, David Stone, Rick Merrill, Domenico Dante, Boris Wild, Yo Kato, Han Seol-Hui, An Ha Lim, and many other legendary performers…
Whether or not you intend to compete in magic or develop a competition act, How to Win at FISM is a fascinating roadmap to developing tighter, punchier, and better magic. You’ll learn about the importance of music, staging, and movement, as well as how to refine and practice your techniques.
