very interesting! I like the match to matchbox idea! looks great!

Yup. Just hang out amd be patient. They will let you know if a trick was accepted or denied and why.

You can get these types of repetitive motion injuries doing anything too much. It is prolly best to stretch before hand and make sure that moves you are doing do not push your hands to the limits. You should aboid fully bending the wrist and take breaks when practicing. We had a whole class on...

You said they were amazed. Spunds to me like you did just fine. There is no right kr wrong really. It is watever works best for you. All you can do is study and practice to get better. You wont truly know what works or doesnt until you hit the streets and perform. Good show my friend!

From what you described it would seem similar but sounds like a different effect all together. It is actually backwards compared to line. Please feel free to send me a PM if you want to discuss it further. Im sure it is different enouh so dont hesitate to publish it purely because of mine.

Glad you asked! ;) check this video out: https://www.theory11.com/marketplace/michael-obrien/sonic-mindreading

I would have to see the trick in question. Also how did you submit them? Through the marketplace or through the "Submit a Trick" option?

I have something similar published. :) https://www.theory11.com/marketplace/michael-obrien/blank-triumph

I wish I could like this post multiple times. Thanks so much for amazing feedback as always David! As for my input on this topic, check this video out. It may help you discover your character/persona.

I use the Charlier cut for a few different reasons: -Because it looks cool -To force a card -To secretly and discretely cut the deck at my side.

There are magicians who only have one hand, or in some cases no hands at all. They are able to adapt to make their magic work for them. With some creativity you can do the same as well. Don't EVER let anyone say you are doing it "wrong" or that your handling is "weird." everyone has their...

I use a Short Corner or Crimp Card to accurately cut to specific positions in the deck. As a matter of fact, go check out "SPELL CHECK" here in the Marketplace. It is free and I teach the method there. I'll link it below :) https://www.theory11.com/marketplace/michael-obrien/spell-check PS It...

Magic Live 2018!!! WOW! What a fun time I had. The best part IMO is the jam sessions that happen in the lounge outside the event. Here is a little comp of some of the performances during this session! ENJOY!

Great advice! Yeah ill water down the home page a bit. I already have an about me page that has most of what the home page has so the home page can essentially lead them to my about section, booking/ contact info, or magic shop. Ill also add company logos for places i have performed. Great idea...

Thank you for reaching out! It is the first video people will see when logging into my website. It is meant to give them a little taste of who I am. The #1 thing I keep hearing is that it needs a CTA. which is true.... I should have something like "Book NOW" at the end or something. haha The...

Honestly, just keep laying with cards. Even if you just fiddle with them. When you practice, focus on being smooth. Hold the cards without squeezing them. Be gentle. Keep the fingers loose. and... you know.... PRACTICE! haha but honestly, it does come with time. The more you play with cards the...

Dana Snyder of Adult Swim Frieda Pinto of Slumdog Millionaire Jack Black of Tenacious D A hand full of magicians but they are not famous famous... just famous within the community haha

Thats a good question.. differerent groups lf peoplw know me for different things... magicians know me mostly from either my ring magic or “Tour de Force.” Laymen seem to know me as “the guy that does magic wirh pokemon cards.” Haha

I agree’ haha issue is that most of the footage i have is with the rings Believe it or not there was more but i actually cut it down a bit and took out other videos using the rings like the KTLA one

As a matter of fact you are correct. This is going to be the first video they see right on my homepage/land ing lage of my website. The goal was to give them a taste of my style as well as set a tone for how they will feel during my act.
