Please do pm a video of your cull...I'd like to see if there's any blatant problem in my technique or is it just the nature of the move to never be hidden amazingly.

True...it might require a different thread XD I am so sorry if you disliked this topic that much though, @Scodischarge , I promise that wasn't my intention. (^_^) I think, as the OP, maybe my question wasn't clear enough, maybe I didn't manage to put it out for anybody as clearly as I should...

Is the new glide from ECT as good for spectators as the typical glide is? Does it fly by them or does the death grip of the deck make them suspicious? Secondlu, I'm done looking through all my books AND through online videos on the cull and I still get an unintended vanish of the card I want to...

True true...! I think it was Garett Thomas who said that art (or entertainment, forgive me, my memory's down) is anything *not* done for survival. But that's the same as saying brilliant music or dancing, is magical. I'm talking about a tangible definition of magic as an art...

not bringing down your style of magic...(it does require guts to perform for kids, no joke. More than half the magicians here won't dare doing that, and neither would I tbh...power to you *takes off an imaginary hat to @It's Magic Sam ) But if they don't know the difference between real world...

This, I think, does close the case, lel. And women were the assistants. Which means that although not the magicians per se, they'd have known the inner mechanics to quite a lot of tricks. Which by the way would have made a very sensational and sensible theory HAD IT NOT BEEN FOR THE FACT that...

Oh. But then why doesn't that man confirm the identity of Erdnase one and for all? :/

Not to thread bump but somebody recently pointed this out...What proof is there that Erdnase wasn't a woman?

How does it then differ from some of these worldwide scams though? [insert thinking emoji]

Really objective, you, no sarcasm O:) However, while a suspension of belief is easily understood, what do you mean by entertainment and wonder? A card rising to the top thanks to a DL is creation of a moment of wonder for my friends who have no idea how it is done. But not for me. Does...

Noicee... But (and I'm doing this purely to broaden my own idea of magic, and also of others, if I so flatter myself...) Acting is a skill, directing well is a skill, producing, scriptwriting, shooting (the video kind, not the other more disastrous kind, lel) are all skills. And they create...

laws of Science*

No matter how much we speak about magic being ''oh-so-undefinable'', I think it's time we took a stand and defined it as exactly what it is, because if we don't know WHAT an art form is objectively, we would not know WHAT to do! However, magic being an art (in some hands at least, as it should...

As far as I know, the market has been extended a lot to bridge sized cards, with specific decks coming in that size. While I've heard many MANY people recommend never to get used to a bridge sized deck and that the smaller width is suspicious and more so...it highlighted their ignorance as much...

I think its cool. Any medium sounds ridiculous till somebody conquers it.

Hold on...what is meant by ''sinister''? :eek::eek::eek: Which part of Magician Underworld did I miss...TELL ME ALL OF IT!

Is that really a camera trick? I'd label editing which accomplishes the entire effect or the majority of it as an effect done with camera tricks. Changing angles and trimming shots, well, they are essential to a magic performance video, aren't they? Because on-camera you don't have the ability...

Your cards don't typically matter. What matters sometimes is the condition of the cards. Otherwise everything's game.

Yeah it is. But then, are visual and great colour changes that necessary in real life performances, except if one's style is a ''wanna see something?'' sorta style? As far as I have seen, most AMAZING colour changes are all super angly and while in the hands of somebody who has practised it a...

TIP:- If the world is a deck, don't be a double-faced card.
