As you must have heard by now, the World Champions have been announced.
WORLD CHAMPION OF CLOSE UP MAGIC - Shawn Farquhar (Canada)
WORLD CHAMPION OF STAGE MAGIC - Soma (Hungary)
In other FISM news I see that CCTV has been airing footage from FISM 2009 nightly here in Beijing and all across China.
They've even included clips of the contest performances on their website. You can see Australia's SIMON CORONEL in action HERE.
This is fantastic news for all of the contestants as, not only do they get exposure, but in the FISM Contest Agreements they signed, any footage of their work that is aired on TV results in payments to them. Usually it's just the winners who are showcased and paid, this time everyone does!
