TOXIC ACAAN SQUARED 
The Magic Square gets a reboot by infusing the classic ACANN plot TOXIC FORCE and a kicker ending that makes the audience jump to their feet. 

STARS 
A warm and enchanting closing effect combining Dan Harlan's Starcle and the classic Snowstorm, creating an ultraviolet and unforgettable audience experience. Scott closes with this one a lot because of its strong audience appeal. 

HYDRO-TASTIC GLASS
