Worst I ever get is people thinking the method is some kind of battery controlled cards or ones that change in the light or something to that effect. I do blank deck and color changing deck routines all the time and people tend to think the cards are electronic somehow.

Check this out and see if it helps at all:

Many have the opinion that the “Chinese Linking Rings” are boring and no one is fooled by them. I laugh when I hear magicians say this ;)

How magic has evolved over the years would be super easy. You can start with the classics like Houdini, then move onto the more modern like copperfield, Penn and teller, etc. Then move onto magic today and how it is still on shows like AGT etc. Could put together 10 slides on that concept.

If your goal is to do the shuffle perfectly till it is invisible even with an audience burning you and you have only been in magic for 6 months then I think you have your answer. Haha you need to keep practicing it for a few years. Magic is one of those things that requires a ton of muscle...

Continuing on with what @ChristopherT has said, you should structure the performance in such a way that the audience ist burning your hands. The shuffles should be so natural that you are just talking and telling a story. The action of shuffling should be mundane to the audience. Avoid things...

Great post! I think adding something to your act that comes from your own personal life will enhance your love of the performance. That really shows when you are performing. For me it is my wife, daughter, doctor who, pokemon, and vintage music that adds my own unique touch to my magic. The...

Thanks for the love :) There is a new effect on the market (dont remember the name) but essentially you chew bubble gum and when you spit it out the chewed gum looks like a super hero (i think batman, spiderman are the main reveals) then you have other random ones as well like a card force etc...

I agree. Plenty of great sites available to buy magic from. Penguin magic and right here at T11 are the ones I buy from primarily. Customer service wise they are the best and the prices are reasonable. Vanishing Inc are also a great company to buy from with great customer service and decent...

I thought you guys would be interested in seeing what I was up to during my visit across the pond :) Ninja+ Showdown Matthew Garrett vs Michael O'Brien Featuring various ring routines from the Ninja+ series including “Barblade” by Tom Brooks and the newest member of the Ninja+ family “Ring in...

“The Imagine Nation Project Vol. 0” By Michael Brian You need to use your imagination to see the words written in the book. Also comes with easy to remember version of my name.

He published material on rubiks cube magic in his “Inside the Mind of Garrett Thomas” series I believe. He is one of the first performers to really do rubiks cube magic from what I can remember. I still hold his cube magic as some of thebest and most visual you will ever see. Got to see it live...

It is 100% up to you if you want to submit it. If the method is original and you feel the effect is worth it to upload then go for it.

Cold Case, and The Cooler are both gimmicked deck switches that dont involve any sleight of hand (will require a bit of misdirection.) My Switcheroo Deck holdout mixes a bit of sleight of hand with a gimmick making for a very quick and easy deck switch (will require a bit of misdirection)...

Something self working will fool him probably. Or if you want to use sleight of hand, check out “Tour de Force.” :)

Love it!

Spongeballs Linking their wedding ring to a ninja ring Deck to card box 51 cards to pocket Card to mouth

I go through a deck about every 2 hours. Both because i have cards signed/destroyed and just because the deck becomes dirty and unuseable after a while. I personally just carry 2 decks on me and perform until the deck starts running low. Then I switch out the deck for the other. As for the need...

Then on top of that you have a card in: your wallet, in an envelope, in the card case, in your left shoe, in your right shoe, in your fly, and in your hat. :)
