Make Believe Directed by: J. Clay Tweel Written by: Cleven S. Loham Starring: Lance Burton, Bill Koch, Krystyn Lambert, Derek McKee The art of magic has been around for centuries, and while the promise of seeing someone perform seemingly impossible feats will probably always draw a crowd, today's audiences are more wise, savvy and cynical than ever before. Nowadays, I think a lot of people take magic for granted, which is why modern magicians like Criss Angel and David Blaine need to put on a rock and roll attitude in order to get some attention. Still, with talented new magicians coming out of the woodwork all the time, it poses an interesting question: where do all these magicians get their start and how do they hone their skills? Make Believe is a documentary that purports to answer that question by focusing on the Teen Championship at the World Magic Seminar,...

Title: Make Believe: The Battle to Become the World’s Best Teen Magician Director: J. Clay Tweel Featuring: Krysten Lambert, Bill Koch, Hiroki Hara, Derek McKee, Siphiwe Fangase, Skumbuzo Nkonyana For all their amazing feats, athletes, even those of ferocious competitiveness and incredible and finely honed individual skill, sometimes evince a lack of joy, perhaps because their profession is dictated to some degree by body shape and size, pedigree, or simply the fact that it was drummed into their head long ago that their self-worth was entirely tied to this game or that. For me, that’s why amateur sports — particularly something like college basketball, where rivalries often span generations — possess...

Perched on top of a small hill just off Hollywood Boulevard, the magnificent Magic Castle waived its usual exclusivity policies recently and invited press into a few of its awe-inspiring rooms to meet some of the stars of J. Clay Tweel’s documentary “Make Believe.”
The basement lounge was draped in red velour, cluttered with vintage posters of the late greats and decorated with authentic props. The hushed and magical atmosphere became a bustling and electric place when four of the six teens from the film — Bill Koch, Derek McKee, Hiroki Hara and Krystyn Lambert — along with the director, producer and master magician Lance Burton himself walked in.
“Normally in life, being deceived isn’t a pleasant experience,” says Burton, explaining what takes place nightly on the Magic Castle stage. “We’re deceived by friends and lovers, politicians and used-car salesmen all the time, and it...

The magical magic documentary, Make Believe, follows six mostly awkward teenagers as they compete to be crowned Teen World Champion at the World Magic Seminar in Las Vegas. And in Make Believe, director J. Clay Tweel does for magic what Jeffrey Blitz did for spelling bees in Spellbound: He humanizes these teenage outcasts, gives their devotion to dorkiness the the sheen of cool, and finds the sweetness in their awkward struggles to find themselves within their magic and use the art to help find a connection with other people. Along the way, they also perform a few exceptional, crowd-pleasing magic tricks.
The kids at the center of Make Believe are an impressive group of teens, each with an almost religious dedication to the craft of magic, eschewing "Gossip Girl" and time with their friends to fan cards and master the art of manipulation. Seventeen-year-old Krysten Lambert is a pretty high-school blonde from Malibu,...
