Here is a note from Scott Robinson: I’m pleased to announce “Carolina Close-up Convention 2010”. Last year was my first at the helm and I learned a lot. Hopefully with a few tweaks this one will be even better than the 2009 edition. . The convention has been in existence for the past4 years (under a couple of different names) and has always been host to some great talent such as Fisher, Asher, Wagner, Gallo, Kosby, Skutt, England, Beam, DeCamps, Tyler Wilson, Geoff Williams, Nate Kranzo and many others. . All the talent is already booked! We will continue having the special events that worked and I’ve have dumped the one that didn’t. (Yes I know the contest was painful). . Here are the details . . . Date/Location October 1st and 2nd 2010 Charlotte University Holiday Inn 8520 University Exec Park Dr Charlotte, NC 28262 (704) 547-0999 . Talent I’m very excited about the line-up. I believe we have hit a great balance between established names and new “Up and Comers”. I hope you agree . . . . • Jon Armstrong • John Guastaferro • Cody Fisher • Karl Hein • Caleb Wiles • Chris Mayhew . Special Events Newcomer Lecture –After the success of Aaron DeLong’s debut as the first “Newcomer” lecture, we will continue with the concept again this year with another “mystery” lecturer. . Like last year, the “Newcomer Lecture” will feature someone who is unknown to the masses but will be a familiar name to those “in the know”. The goal here is to give someone a chance to get some of the recognition they deserve as an innovator/creator of magic. The identity of the lecturer will remain a mystery up until the time they are introduced. This year’s newcomer will not disappoint! . Social Jam Hour (Hosted by Eric Jones) – A few years ago I lectured at “The Second Deal” convention in Atlanta. One of the highlights was a session hosted by Paul Cummins that allowed everyone to share a move, trick or idea they had created or discovered with the group in a “formal” manner. With permission from Jason Alford we have taken the same concept and expanding it to encompass all of facets of close-up magic. It was a nice success last year and we will continue it again with a few small tweaks. Once again Eric Jones will be hosting the event. . The Show – A formal close-up show featuring some of the top close-up workers around. Staged like a real show. After last year’s show Eric Decamps said “All conventions should do their close-up show like that one”. . The Sleight Club Lecture – The Sleight Club is taking a year off but will be back next year with a very special lecture. As you can see we have a great line-up and some cool events. I hope you will make it! .
