    Content Content and More Content

    My best piece of advice I ever received about marketing your content to get gigs is to forget the magic, and focus on the people. People don't actually care about magic, people care about people. What I would recommend producing is different promo reels appealing to different demographics but...

    Questions about making routines. And about books

    I typically don't read magic books cover to cover. I look for effects that interest me and then study up on the method and practice it. If you are wanting to be a card magician, you might find a neat little nugget in Mark Wilson's Complete Course that you can use. Might be worth a look.

    Electric touch plus users......

    Unfortunately I am having the same issues. I had just invested in getting myself tailored for the professional setup and everything. I even sent in to get my device repaired. I still can not get static electricity to happen across my body. It's very confusing and it has ruined my show to where I...

    Double Cross: how do you perform it?

    I'm switching my presentation to where I say something along the lines of that I can't do a big huge stage illusion right now so I will draw to demonstrate how to entertain with magic. First is the introduction and I introduce an "x" on my hand, next is a little bit more exciting is the vanish...

    The Emotional Appeal

    When I was writing my show I noticed a lot of parallels in storytelling with how I approach my film scripts. One key particular element was something I learned from Nerdwriter about this concept called Scenes vs. Moments. At the early stages of rehearsals I explained to my team that this is what...

    Music for Youtube Performance (Invisible Palm Technique)

    So you used music from Peter Gundry in your first video. As a follower of his work, I know for a fact that you need to buy the rights and permission to use his music for your purposes. It's clearly explained on his website. The only kind of music you can use for your use without paying is open...

    First Magic Video on Youtube

    You earn bonus points for using Peter Gundry music! I say your skills are quite polished but the real test will be how well you handle in front of live spectators. I would say you are ready to take it to the streets and try to overcome the nervousness and anxiety that comes with performing for...

    Double Cross by Mark Southworth Review (Live Performances included)

    Thank you so much for the kind words. They truly do mean a lot to me. I've been trying to carve out my own niche in the YouTube magic product review community by providing live performances of as many product reviews that I can. I feel seeing it in front of actual people is the best way to...

    Pricing Discussion

    Thank you for sharing your experience Stu-pendous! This is one area that I'm not very experienced with so I definitely value any input I can get from people on this subject. I have heard some of the concepts you mentioned about how laymen see a higher priced magician being more of a "premium...

    Pricing Discussion

    I was reading a forum post on here and Josh Burch mentioned something that definitely struck my interest. He said that Rich Ferguson says that any magician performing in the states that knows three card tricks should be able to charge $350 for a show. This got me thinking about discussing what...

    Chung Ling Soo's last words: "I really should have cleaned that musket!"
