    Interesting Gig Coming Up

    I'll explain everything in detail in the video jenfi6. Basically I had 3 sets of 3 strolling effects and went back and forth up and down the aisle of the bus. There were about 50 people on the charter bus. Each row only had 2 people per side of the charter bus so I started at the back and...

    Streaming vs. download

    Streaming is quite possibly the way of the future in that many people who pay and "download" something typically tend to "share" it with friends or they all chip in and just keep making copies of the file. Is it wrong? Definitely. I do see how some people dislike streaming because they don't...

    VÄNDA deck now available on kickstarter!

    These are actually pretty unique looking. For some reason the simplicity of them looks great! Nicely done.

    Interesting Gig Coming Up

    I did it fellas. The gig definitely challenged me and put me outside my comfort zone but it was a huge success. Instead of typing a LONG thread, I'm just going to post a video of me like Toby explaining how everything went. Does anyone have any specific questions that they want me to maybe hit...

    Morgan Strebler vs Criss Angel Featured on Yahoo!

    I'm pretty much in agreement here with everyone. This is simply a publicity stunt that the general public does not care about; however, it brings Morgan's name up to another level within the magic circles. Like Baller said, its been posted for 17 hours and not a single comment. Unless the...

    where do I start?

    Good thoughts so far guys. Are you doing it for the love of magic and to become a known go to store? Are you doing it to make a lot of money? I'm just curious and want to hear your answer because I know 3 really good local magicians around my area who tried and they all failed and said after...

    Invoicing and payment for professional magicians?

    9 times out of 10 my clients pay me on arrival unless I've been booked through an agent and then my agent will send me payment a few days after my show. As far as my contract goes...it is the same contract for everyone. It is just a template that I go back into for each gig and fill in the...

    Invoicing and payment for professional magicians?

    Upon getting all of the details over the phone with the client and agreeing on the set price I then do the following: 1.) Type up a contract / entertainment agreement and print 2 hard copies and sign them both. They get mailed out the very next day. 2.) Both go into an envelope addressed to the...

    A magical way to announce a pregnancy?

    I'm thinking "gut buster" by Andrew Mayne. Stand behind your wife...all of her family and yours sitting in the living room, and slam your first through her stomach with a little baby doll in your fist. Ha Ha..... I'm completely kidding but that was the first funny visual that came to mind...

    Sweaty Palms Ruin My Cards!

    No problem. Glad I could give you some advice that worked for you. :)

    Sweaty Palms Ruin My Cards!

    If the sweaty palms and hands come from nerves...that eventually goes away in time with repetition in front of spectators. I promise it does go away....I had the same problem for about a year in magic and my cards would clump and then they (the cards) wouldn't work well. If you just simply...

    I Mean Really People!

    The first thing you should have done was type up some type of contract or entertainment agreement between you and the client(s) which would have included many details about payment, work schedule, etc. Without a contract and signature....it's simple...I don't perform. Was this just a spur of...

    Need help finding a way to make a trick possible

    I'm just brain storming here: 1.) the shot glasses are switched at some point 2.) the shot glasses "appear" to be empty but actually contain the liquid (think lotta bowl / vase) :) 3.) something fills the shot glasses while a cover / cloth / contraption is over top of them hiding them from...

    Teaching

    Ha...my bad. I thought you meant $15 for an hour. I just misread your sentence. I thought you were insane for a second... I guess I should read more carefully. And yes, you definitely want to provide more than what you can learn on a DVD or in a book. I totally agree. There are things my...

    The Archive News?

    I don't know a thing about it but if I had to guess, I was thinking the same thing Will. Some how a data base of all threads being available for topics to be easily searched and found so we don't get repeat threads over and over again, and insightful threads from years ago don't get buried...

    Best Editing Software?

    I'm on a MacBook Pro so I normally just go with iMovie or Final Cut Pro X (trial version) may order the full version soon. When I used to use a PC I would tend to use a program called Pinnacle which was very easy to learn and provided me with enough features for my money. You could look into...

    Teaching

    Goatears, For the past 2 years I paid my mentor $35 for hour and a half, private close up lessons. I thought and still believe that was a fair price. As far as school teachers tutoring students outside of the classroom...anyone you talk to will tell you that $20-30 per hour is a standard...
