This is a proud moment for us! Josh has invested an unbelievable amount of time and effort into this DVD set and the result is absolutely phenomenal. It is, we're pleased to say, a DVD experience with the power to transform your magic and affect the way you think about our art. Josh's material is interesting, emotive, diverse and engaging and it is now here for you to learn. As well as the excellent magic, there are multiple interviews with Josh as well as some great extras which you may not expect to find. Luis and his team have done an amazing job with producing this set and the end product is truly 'unreal'.

Unreal is a very real display of Josh Jay's many talents: deceptive magic, amazing technical skill, and engaging his spectators warmth, human interest and humor. Very few one-man magic shows rise to the level of sophisticated, dramatic theatre-"Unreal" is one of them.Simon Aronson

Customer reviews for Unreal

Robert
I was so excited to get this dvd set and I can say that he absolutely delivered! It is worth every penny. I was first introduced to Joshua Jay's work when I purchased a live lecture download from another website (it, too, is outstanding). After that I have got my hands on everything I could afford that he has produced. This dvd series stands out not only because of the excellent magic but in so many subtle ways: the video quality, sequencing within and between dvds, the diversity of material, interviews (don't blow these off; there's a lot of good stuff), and the explanations make this a really good investment. Another aspect that I appreciate is that there are excellent effects for literally every level of learner. Even the ones without sleights are really well-thought out and great effects. For those that like to tinker, so many of these effects/concepts lend themselves to inventing tricks of your own; I already have several ideas that I plan on fleshing out based on some of his methods/concepts/sleights/utilities. Finally, something that I have come to greatly appreciate is the thought that he puts into the fine details of getting in and out of effects (very cleanly) and the flow of one to another. Thank you so much!
MAGIC
From the April 2015 MAGIC Magazine. Reviewed by John Wilson

Unreal provides a close look at Joshua Jay’s magic. It includes everything from a full evening show to stand-alone effects and projects. These DVDs are full of ideas and lessons for those serious about magic as a profession, as well as for those who are just looking to learn a few quick effects. Recommended.

They say laypeople care about the person before they like the magician.
Check.
They say you must pick the method that has the strongest impact on the audience.

They say always learn from the best.

I say Joshua Jays lives up to his fame both as a performer and a teacher of magic.

James
Joshua Jay is an amazing teacher and performer. The magic he performs is practical and just mind blowing. Unreal is a great investment to make and I would recommend this to any one.
Ryan
Possibly the best single purchase i have ever made.
There is SO MUCH 5* quality material on here that i will only talk about the stuff that i really use. (Not even all the stuff i want to use but just dont have anymore practice time in the day to incorporate XD)

KINGS ALL OVER
Wow! What an effect! Standup, impromptu, Audience participation, and cards teleport in their hands! Not just like your standard show a double and place in their hands, but a card placed in their hands one minute, will be many cards the next minute! ... its jam packed with neat moments in just a minute or so of magic

OIL AND WATER
I keep just a couple of cards in my wallet for an O&W, and i use 2 of the 3 phases he teaches (the 1st and 3rd phase). In the first phase reds cards are openly weaved with black and yet with no moves un-mix. and in the third phase you get a EXTREMELY visual moment that you dont often see in O&W and its a great way to end the routine!

TRUMPED TRIUMPH
What a cool idea, this is such a visual triumph! I guarantee you will LOVE this.

BACK IN TIME
Jay Sankeys presentation combined with a really stunning method/handling.
I use this frequently.

PREDICTION PEICE
This is a self working mental miracle that will really have your spectators stunned. There is just no possible way a certain thing can happen and yet it does! STILL though i never planned on using this... I had some friends over the next night and they wanted to see some stuff! I wasnt feeling super up to it (long day) so i grabbed some a deck ready to do some selfworking stuff and just happened to grab this. They were floored!
TLDR: This is a really neat effect, but do not underestimate how powerful it is to laymen for some reason. Just one of those things, i have come to love it because of how much my spectators do

INFERNO
This is the subtlest use of eqivoque i have personally ever seen, It WILL go over your head. i was floored by this and it packs SO small! In Jeff Mcbride manner i have a Glasses Case with a "commando show" and Inferno is my closer in that set!


If you are serious about performing Card Magic, Close up magic, or Parlor i dont think you have an excuse not to get UNREAL. Believe me when i say your audience will thank you for it :)

Oliver
This was my first set of Luis de Matos DVD's and all I can say is good things about it. Joshua teaches you everything in detail and the routines in the set are real world working routines you can perform anytime. So much material to learn from a master of close-up and parlour magic.
