Magic is Alive & Well & Everywhere

2/23/2015

   The resurgence of magic in the media is an exciting sign that audiences want to experience a sense of wonder and impossibility, and become involved in their entertainment, rather than being passive consumers.  The 2015 Academy Awards was hosted by Neil Patrick Harris, who among other things, is an accomplished magician and past President of The Academy of Magical Arts.      
Picture
   
   Magic has frequently played an integral role in award shows but this year, a magical prediction of the Oscar Winners was featured front and center throughout the broadcast.  This demonstration of precognition followed Harris’ stint on American Horror Story as a demented magician sawing Emma Roberts in half.  It is rumored that the upcoming theme of Ryan Murphy's notorious anthology series will be magic. Harris is not the only one presenting magic on television.  The Ellen Degeneres Show frequently features magicians presenting close-up, interactive miracles, as did Craig Ferguson’s Late Late Show. There are several magic-themed reality and competition TV shows including Close-Up Kings on the Sci Fi Channel, Magic Outlaws on the Travel Channel, Penn & Teller’s Fool Us on The CW Network, and Wizard Wars also on Sci Fi. 

   Perhaps the most creative and fun show of the bunch is The Carbonaro Effect on TruTV, now in its second season. This blending of Candid Camera style pranks with magic is thoroughly entertaining and involves the unsuspecting “audience” in the fun.

    Close-up magic is at its finest, not on television, but experienced live.  Take advantage of our Springtime deals on Magic and Gameshows! And follow us on social media for updates, deals, and daily event-inspiration!

Magical Events had the incredible opportunity to give back to the community last week, providing holiday entertainment at the Anaheim Regional Medical Center. They're revered for their extremely competent and friendly staff. We thank them for inviting our thinking of Magical Events first this Christmas season and for inviting our carolers back year after year.  


 
Pictured above are our Christmas Belles Carolers, who had the pleasure of singing for newborns and their families. You can watch video of them below performing at an event we produced that's been ongoing through the month of December at theCarlsbad Premium Outlets!
It's not too late to book holiday entertainment. We're running deals on gameshows, music, and magic through New Years. Spots fill up quickly, though, so be sure to book soon!

Ronald McDonald House Orange County

8/29/2014

Magical Events had the great pleasure of bringing magic to the Ronald McDonald House of Orange County.
Picture
The small-scale, casual event was one of the most rewarding experiences for Magical Events. The Ronald McDonald House is a really special organization, designed to comfort the families of children with terminal illnesses. Who is more deserving of some magic to brighten up their day, than the families of the Ronald McDonald House? 
We asked one of the House employees about volunteering for the organization. What she said was this, “when you volunteer for the Ronald McDonald house, you keep coming back. We have volunteers here who have been working with us for 15 years!” She wasn’t kidding! The energy is inspiring and contagious. In 25 years, we’ve never had such a captive audience. It was truly a magical weekend.

Talented  photographer, Jon C. Haverstick, was capturing memories all day long. You can see more of his work here: http://jonhaverstickstudio.com/

Trade Show Business-Booster: How to Keep Customers at Your Booth Longer

7/17/2014

0 Comments

 
Trade Shows can be daunting--ALL of your competitors in one room, peacocking to grasp the attention of future customers,  with mere seconds to make an impression. That's why it is so important to have a booth that people not only want to visit, but want to STAY at and REVISIT. You already have an awesome product, so attracting customers is not the challenge, but KEEPING them there is a challenge. And we at M.E. accept.
Picture

Picture
Close-up magicians make the magic happen in your hand and can orchestrate a trick in which they produce your product or business cards in your customer's hands.  Custom singer-songwriters can create a song about your company and product to perform at your booth. At M.E. it's all about YOU.
Trade show entertainment is a specialty art in and of itself. It takes a particular skill set to perform to the best of one's ability and to sell someone else's product. That is something we've been trained to do for over two decades. Magical Events trade show entertainers are not only top quality performers, but will learn the ins and outs of your product to incorporate your company's mission statement and message into the performance.

TRENDS: rockin' Corporate Parties

7/13/2014

We’ve been noticing some corporate Summer party trends recently that are keeping guests’ taste buds satisfied, eyes in wonder, and feet in motion!
Picture

Picture
Shaken and Stirred:
Juggling, fire, and boos: What more could you want? Flare bartending has always been a hit at pool-side parties and hospitality engagements looking to add a splash of glamour in their vodka martini and recently, flare has become increasingly popular even for small scale office parties and private events.

Take It Outside:
The latest big trend we’ve noticed is how much corporate events are taking it outside! Our outdoor picnic game show is awesome for competitive, active employees of companies who love being outdoors.

Goo-Goo Gourmet:
Everyone loves an elegantly plated party platter. Creative food plates are key for a deliciously festive event. Recently, we’ve noticed in a trend: Ironically Kid-Themed parties for the Corporate Adult audience. Our favorite part is the gorgeous plating of finger foods. (Does this look like kid’s food to you?) And as part of our team building game show, we have a Baby-Bottle drinking competition--It’s not milk in those bottles ;)

How much catering to serve at a party?

7/11/2014

0 Comments

 
Catering can be a challenge-- Inevitably, you find yourself left with enough food to serve 100 guests after serving a party for 50 people. Of course it's always better to overestimate and make sure your guests are well fed, rather than undershoot, but we also want to make sure those leftovers are minimized and don't go to waste!

As a rule of thumb, we guestimate 1.5 servings of food for every 1 person is a good call. And estimate that each guest will consume 2-3 gallons of beverages.
To the right: You'll find a super duper helpful infographic that breaks this down even further.

Of course--You will still likely be left with some leftovers. But that's okay! You can visit Feeding America online to search local food banks by area code that will take your left over catering!

HIGHLIGHTS: FOURTH OF JULY 2014

                  It was our 15th year producing one of our favorite events: Santa Ana Country Club's Fourth of July Summer Bash! This year, attendance and participation was amazing--we had such an incredibly involved group of varied ages and lots of new members--always a pleasure!

Picture
Classic favorites: The watermelon and pie eating contests were almost too close to call. These kids were crazy competitive. They took the wise words of Weird Al Yankovich, "Just Eat It" to heart!

Balloon sculptor, Don Frank, is a true artist--With twists and rubber-latex, he created some amazing things, though the less complicated bow and arrow balloon was a popular hit.

Picture
Everyone had a festive time, turning themselves into walking patriotic emblems with our crazy hair designers and face painters!

Our games and contest show was a crowd-pleaser. From balloon tosses and hula hoops to sack races and limbo, the show engages guests of all ages. Participation was so amazing on the Fourth of July, we went over time to pack everything in!

The night closed out with fireworks and some amazing food. We are so glad to have SACC as an account and cannot wait to be back next year!
