Movies and Magic - Magic Science Show (Primary)

Sometimes what looks like magic is actually science! In this video, pupils can try out a range of different 'magic tricks' that all involve science to make them work.

The video is part of a collection that demonstrates the STEM subject themes and activities in the Movies and Magic resource for STEM Clubs, which is available as a free download. Pupils can explore the techniques used to make movies look realistic and investigate whether some of the technology from the movies could be possible in real life.
