Ellis created 'MagicSports'[10][11][12] a form of improvised magic games based on Keith Johnstone's 'Theatre Sports'. In 1992 he bought Australia's oldest magic shop, 'Bernard's'[13][14] which he owned for several years. In 1994 he was awarded second place in 'Micro Magic' at the FISM World Magic Championship in Yokohama, Japan.[15] This followed the 'Special Prize of the Jury' he was awarded at the 1991 FISM in Lausanne, Switzerland for his 'Six Card Rap'.[16][17] Ellis was married to Sue-Anne Webster from 1998 to 2011.[18] Ellis performed as a guest artist at the FISM World Championship of Magic, performing in the Close Up Gala in 2000 and the Stage Gala in 2003.[19] In 2001 Ellis and Webster were voted 'Most Valuable Performers' by their peers at the close up magic convention 'Fechter's Finger Flicking Frolic' in Batavia, New York.[20] Ellis sat on the jury at the FISM World Championship of Magic in 2003 at Den Haag, in 2006 at Stockholm, and 2009 in Beijing.[21] In 2004 Ellis and Webster produced three magic teaching DVDs,[22][23][24] and together with a team of Melbourne magicians they set a new Guinness World Record for the world's longest magic show by performing non-stop for 75 hours at Luna Park, Melbourne, Australia.[25][26] The previous record was 24 hours.[27] In the same year Ellis produced the 29th Australian Convention of Magicians.[28] In 2007 Ellis was diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome.[29] After the 2007 show Poker in the Face,[30][31] Ellis presented two shows for the 2008 Melbourne International Comedy Festival Illusionarium with Ellis & Webster[32] and Something About Needles & Razorblades.
