This usually depends on the nature of the project, your level of expertise, and time investment required to properly execute it. For reference, many of our artists at theory11 actively consult for other productions - from Calen Morelli (consult to Copperfield, Blaine, and Dynamo) to Dan White...

Fantastic submissions this week - I had a great time watching all of them. Fantastic. This was no easy challenge - you were tasked with presenting a mentalism effect to a real audience, requiring presentation, polish, confidence, and smooth delivery. Mentalism in particular requires you to be...

Reviewing all submissions as we speak!

Surely - any mentalism effect performed for any audience, as long as they're watching live - is fair game.

Of course!

Over the past year, we've released a number of tricks and techniques with a mentalism style. From Shredder to Sneak Peek, Out of My Mind to Colorblind to Phantom - these are all powerful, simple mentalism concepts that have potential to blow people away - speechless. On October 31st, we'll be...

All fixed - this was just a cache that needed to be updated for the new iPhone cases to show! Thanks for letting us know!

Not a surprise... ... surprises. Plural. Several of which represent our most ambitious magic and playing card projects ever. Literally - ever. Behind the scenes, our team has been working around the clock for months to make this happen. When you see all of it - any of it - everything will...

This functionality will be back up and running soon - we did a major upgrade of our store system this past month in preparation for something special coming soon. In the process, we had to change and update our elite redemption system as well. But don't worry - that functionality will be...

Very likely to arrive tomorrow (Wednesday) based on your location, but as Christopher mentioned, USPS delivery dates aren't guaranteed - so it could arrive on Thursday as well. In any event, it will be in your hands soon! The package left our warehouse only a few hours after the order was placed...

Really great submissions this weekend - outstanding. Tyler's took the top prize as it showed great deceptiveness and huge practical potential in a broad spectrum of effects. Nickvlow, beautiful work as well! Choosing the top two this week was a difficult challenge. Special thanks to everyone...

Inspired by Petter's idea in our SNC suggestions thread, tonight's event will have you seeing double. Double lifts, that is. Your challenge tonight is something simple - or something complex - the choice is yours. The idea: create a unique double lift. The double lift is a staple move in the...

Steerpike, honestly man, I don't even know what's being said or debated in your last post. "Feel like I'm being sold to" - sold what? Free prizes - and fun? To be clear: if you want to participate in a contest, do. If you don't, don't. We're totally cool with either. These are contests we...

I like the idea of "finish this trick" a lot - or make a variation of THIS. I believe we've done things like "finish this flourish" in the past, but it's a cool concept that we could definitely do more of. Sweet!

I gotta go with Regeneration... the perfect blend of simple presentation and beautiful, practical, brilliant method. Hard to beat!

Best of luck on the project. Losander is a great guy and incredible talent that we're lucky to have in the magic community.

Steerpike, to each his own, but if posting in a positive, respectful, constructive manner is not of interest - or impossible for you to achieve, as it seems - I would encourage you to explore other communities, as it will not be tolerated here. Your feedback was absorbed, responded to, and...

Andrei doesn't currently perform at any theater in Las Vegas (besides our studio!) - but there are plenty of magic shows across the strip. Of course, Copperfield's new show at the MGM Grand is a MUST see (!!), and I'd also recommend checking out Penn and Teller's show at the Rio and Mac King at...

Steerpike, if you believe that a quality photograph represents "a grand total of maybe a tenth of a second of thought," then I highly suggest you watch a photography documentary... or just follow Larry Fong on Twitter. That'd be a good start. Anyone can take a photo in a second, yes - but anyone...

Like this idea a LOT!
