"Michel Huot is a very clever guy who perfectly blends comedy, magic and cleverness." - Joshua Jay

"Michel Huot is a true performer whose material is designed for the real world.  He is fun and clever.  Get ready to be amazed and entertained by one of Canada’s most beloved magicians." - Boris Wild

"Michel Huot's unique effects and presentations have brought down the house on 3 different occasions at FFFF! Michel is a smart, funny, creative magician with lots of real world advice that will benefit every magician. Not to be missed!" - Richard Sanders

What will he teach?

Cell Fun : Leave a memorable souvenir in a spectator’s phone.  Paul Gertner loved the idea so much, he used it on one of his DVD’s.

Acid Trip :  A very strong coffee causes a spoon to bend.

Baby Gag Climax :  Turn an old gag into a real mind boggler.

Kangaroo’s Punch : A nice ending to an ambitious card routine.

Dirty Pool : a pool prediction that makes sense.

Crossed Words : a logical way a magician would play with a crosswords puzzle.

Plus, tricks with children toys, your jacket, Christmas lights, cards, birthday hats and see why you should always work with a table when doing cocktail parties.

Who is he?

Michel Huot is Montreal’s busiest corporate magician.  He has been doing corporate magic for the past 20 years.  He did not received a magic kit when he was 6.  He started at age 23, years after seeing a magician at an event.  Michel was dealing with personal issues at the time (the death of his mother and father) and realized that time stopped while he was being entertained by the magician.  He did not think about his parents for the 10 minutes the magician was there.  For him, THAT was the magic.  The next day Michel had bought a copy of Mark Wilson’s course in Magic.

He then created a Siamese twin act with a friend that won them the People’s Choice award in a magic contest in Montreal in 1998.  He presented that act at FFFF in 1999 and has been invited back ever since.  He also two other FFFF favorites - The Human Deck of Cards (with Yannick Lacroix) and UPSIDE/DOWN (with Patrice Meunier and Yannick Lacroix). The 2 acts received well deserved standing ovations.

His creations appeared in MAGIC, GENII, David Acer’s Natural Selections II, MONEY (John Lovick), Mentalism for Kids (Paul Rohmany), The Magic Menu (Jim Sisti) and so on.

He performed at more than 20 shows at Montreal’s prestigious JUST FOR LAUGHS comedy festival, and is a regular invitee at the COMEDY NEST (now owned by David Acer) in Montreal.

Michel also co-organizes an international magic festival in Algeria for the past 5 years.  Some of the guests were David Sousa, Soma Jordan Gomez, George Saterial, Leon Etienne, and Ouka.

But above all that, Michel loves to come back to his corporate gigs where he entertains people and, for an instant, he makes time stop! 

In this lecture, Michel focuses on commercial magic.  Everything is usable.  And, you will hear some incredible stories and tips on performing in the real world!

Practical, Workable Magic Report this review

Michel Huot works for real audiences, and most importantly, lay people. He knows what makes a good working piece. I performed his cellphone selfie trick as soon as the lecture was over, and it is a killer trick! There are other tips and tricks in this lecture that are pretty clever, and you can tell Michel Huot is business minded. Each effect is quite commercial, memorable, and most importantly simple to perform and understand. Lots of great tips on body language, audience management, pocket management and the classic force.

I liked it!

I confess I had never heard of Michel until he lectured at the Magic Circle in the UK. That lecture inspired me to buy this lecture - despite the fact I had already bought his lecture notes!

Michel's magic is the type I like best, where the tricks are not knucklebusters, not overly angle sensitive, mostly at chest height, it fits in a small bag.

The lecture is a mix of stage and close up and has some moments of genius.

Sometimes genius is "why didn't I think of that - that's brilliant". It is simple AFTER someone else has pointed it out. They thought of it - and it's genius.

Not to be overlooked are some general performance tips and some interesting ideas for the use of a table in walkabout situations. I can see that while I will often not use a table in walkaround - sometimes I now might.

So I recommend this lecture - there are card tricks as someone mentioned but to call it all card tricks is, I think, unfair. Magic is often called "a real worker" in magic blurbs. Michel's stuff is genuinely for real workers, real world, nice reset (where required) and something new for everyone.

It is great that Michel is sharing his work. Thank you Michel.

Excellent Working Material Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on February 8th, 2016
I just watched half this lecture and am very impressed by the practical material. There is gold in here and Michel just throws it away like it's nothing!! There are two things here that I will implement immediately - a pocket gimmick that doubles as an incredible ambitious card ending, a photo bit involving a borrowed iphone and leaves a picture on their phone. I'm only half way through so I imagine there will be more to come. Really like some of his little tips also. Very practical magic here.

It was almost all card tricks. After about an hour and a half I got tired of card trick after card trick.

Good thinking, practical tricks Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on May 19th, 2023
There is some really good stuff here. His switch of the card in his breast coat pocket is great. His cell phone trick using the spectator's phone is really good. His visual card switch- pretty eye popping and not hard to do. Practical, commercial tricks here!

Michel was engaging and has a good core philosophy of audience connection as well as audience management. His routines were well explained. Ideal routines for cocktail and restaurant entertainment

I love it Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on February 10th, 2016
All these magic effects are very commercial and can be use in the real world. There is a lot of card trick but there are also some effects with other stuff. Some of the routines are good for close-up and some for parlour. Magic does not have to be always complicated to be good or entertaining and Michel understands that. I love it
