What are the pros vs cons of performing magic for camera? (I am aware of some of them, but I wanted a definite list of pros, so that I can exploit all of them. :D ) Secondly, what is acceptable and not acceptable in performing magic for the camera, as in what's considered fair-game and what's...

Thanks a lot! This is what I do, but as of now, in my opinion it looks a bit strange. Because there's a lot of finger action going on behind the deck. Also, how many people do the cardini in real life?

Out of curiosity, would putting things in other places (like underneath a glass, underneath the band of a spectator's watch) also use the same principles as put pocketing?

I have used this and the results were amazing. I have used this but the results were not foolproof. I have used this and the results were disgusting.

I wish I could learn to crimp cards. The only problem is that all my decks are the 100% Plastic ones, which means the crimp becomes permanent till I break the card off. And that's one tear no magician can restore. However, my biggest regrets have not really been "not learning how to do'' a...

I'm not too sure about this but just watching Apollo Robbin's lectures and speeches online helped me enough to get something in a spectator's pocket for magic purposes. But as far as I know, this sort of thing requires a lot of real-life practice to work decently. Check further into Apollo...

After disliking colour changes for half my life (though that's not saying much, at my age. Regardless...) I'm trying to get better at them. These could use some serious practice of course, but what I'm really concerned about is the clean up for the Cardini. Other than what I did and a palm, is...

...Oh my God. There it is. For some reason that line just vanished in my copy! I'm still surprised but thanks a lot!! :)

YES. Yes, the figure 1 of the Tamariz turnover. Where there is supposed to be a dotted line. The only problem is that I can't spot any dotted line. :(

This is absolutely fine! Of course, if somebody says (as far as I remember, it was @WitchDocIsIn ) that you're not really a ''magician'' if you don't perform for people, that totally makes sense. I've pondered about it and well, a magician is somebody who does magic. Since you don't REALLY do...

I'm sorry! I really shouldn't have been so cold in my reply. But you mustn't let that spoil your perception of the cardistry community as a whole! It is a fantastic and a helpful community (and I, too, am usually a marvellous person :D ). Returning to your original query, I do think that the...

Does anybody here do the Tamariz Turnover or any sort of unload with a DL? Because I needed tips with certain parts. Thanks in advance! :)

Isn't that already done?

If anybody has this book, can they please tell me where is the dotted line in page 58 of the book (figure 1) ? Apparently it's important to notice that, but I can't see anything. :(

Thanks so much for the feedback! This is very true. But while I don't disagree, the problem always is distinguishing who's correct and who's not. I know that we should hear everybody and listen to only a few, but on what factors do we decide who to listen? EXAMPLE:- Suppose I have 3 friends...

Well, that's exactly what I meant, what about those who *want* to do only magic and are confident they can sustain themselves that way, have formulated a plan and can see that things are turning to their favour, slowly but surely, yet others are not convinced. How do people manage that?

I didn't really understand this... :oops:

I agree with everything that you said. I for one place education as one of the essentials to become just a good human (of course there's the condition that you must become socially literate, not just bookwise, but that's argument for another day and other forums). What I was trying to indicate...

Practice so that the Z grip with an extra packet doesn't require you to hesitate at all. Extend your fingers more during the scissor cuts. Hey, Cardistry is hard, so when you can do something, FLAUNT IT LIKE KIM K! It genuinely is one of those moves where the entire beauty is it's speed...

After you said that, I checked. It did get blocked for some time (I have no idea why however). It says that the video has been re-posted. Please check it out if you want... (I assume it was because I included certain comments from news channels which, well, aren't really supported by certain...
