Video Transcript

Creating mime illusions uses a lot of wrist. I'm first going to exercise my wrist by coming down and up, down and up. Then I think of a facet. In and out, in and out. I can stretch the outside of my wrist like this. Then I can use my fingers individually doing small circles in both directions, so I'm going to try and do that. To make some of the illusions, I have to pull up in my knuckles. I'm going to practice a flat hand to a folding knuckle. I can do this in front of me like this. Opening, closing my knuckle. From the knuckles, lifting, closing, lifting, closing. Then I bring it out holding my fingers and I bring just my hand up. Back of the hand, closing. I call this opening and closing a drawer.
