    Is there to much of an emphasis on creating?

    I don't have time to read all the posts, but here it goes with me. I learn new things, new sleights, and once I have the sleight mastered. I then take the sleight and see what else I can create with it, what other ways I can use it. I know the Ego Change is a color change, but I also use it...

    Exposure : Why

    Actually, exposure needs to save kids from Ellusionist and all their expensive products. They take old magic, repackage it as their own, and sell it over priced when you could just get the trick from an old magic book for $5. And they never credit the original creator. It's happened lots of...

    Exposure : Why

    Am I watching the DVD online? If you mean like some sort of illegal download site then no. I'm just finding out the secret by other magicians posting it on a secure forum only for magicians. If the trick is practical and something I'll use, I buy it. If it's not practical and not something I'll...

    Trilogy buying opinion.

    I would just buy the whole Trilogy off of penguin. It's only $63.75 from there. Tyler

    Exposure : Why

    Yeah, taking money is stealing, cause you're actually taking something, something psychical. You can't take a secret, therefore, it isn't stealing. I also don't use it if I don't buy it and don't like it. Thanks for proving my point. ;) If I took the CD from my friend, that would be stealing...

    Exposure : Why

    Yes, but I never use them, so it isn't stealing. Let me use the example of the CD. I borrow a CD from someone and listen to it. Is that stealing? No. If I copied the CD and the listened to it, that would be stealing. If I bought every trick that I thought looked good due to false...

    Exposure : Why

    How? I don't use if it I don't like it. If I like it, I buy it. There isn't any stealing there. Please read my complete post. Tyler

    Saturday Night Contest: Love Edition

    1. "I do the magics of illusions. Wanna see a trick with my wings?" 2. "I'm half man, half cupid, half ape, half magician, half biker. I'm everything you want." 3. "I'm Cipid, Clipid, Ceped. Ahhh, just call me Citch, I'm the love doctor." (Citch = Hitch) Good luck everyone. Peace...

    Exposure : Why

    Yes, I listen to my friends CDs. If I like a song on them then I buy it on iTunes. I like it better that way because I get the album artwork and all the artist information. Actually, what I'm doing, as far as exposure sites, isn't pointless, it actually makes sense. What you're saying doesn't...

    TnR Effects

    Holy Grail is by Jordan Johnson. Anyway, I, personally, like Holy Grail. Oh, and I like Daniels new last name, Garcias. (lol) Tyler

    Exposure : Why

    Why would that be pointless? I'm basically reviewing an effect to see if I like it. If I find out the method of a trick on the secrets forum (since you obviously don't like the term exposure site) and my opinion of the method is that it's crappy and unpractical, than I won't buy it. If it's...

    Exposure : Why

    Okay, admittance time. Two years ago, when I started out in magic, I joined a magic exposure site (because I didn't know better). This was a good magic exposure site, no 8-10 year old kids, actually 20-40 year old practicing magicians. Now, did I use it to just learn tricks? In all...

    What comes after high school?

    Go to COLLEGE. Really, go to college. Jordan Garret is 100% correct. It's always good to have that college degree, because then you'll have something to fall back on. I know college doesn't seem needed, but it is. Let's say your career as an illusionist fails (not saying it will), you'll be...

    Opinions on my T-Shirt Design, Please?

    Your art teacher is right, but that's for art. Not for design. T-Shirt designs are that, designs. I study graphic design and web designs and just designs all together. In a design you want the picture to keep the focus on the center, so that people are always drawn in. You don't want them...

    Video Production - H-Triber

    Well, I know you said "...Daren, Allan, and Kevin...", but I figured I would say how I learned. I learned from some tutorial DVD's that I bought online. Well, that's one way, I learned one other way. I went and spent a week with a professional video editor that works for Steven Speilburg...

    Best DVD teacher?

    In my opinion Dan & Dave are the best teachers. 2 teachers, better the learning. ;) (lol) Now, I don't mean to sound like I'm bashing anyone, but I have to say, I dislike Brad Christian's teaching more than anyones. In my opinion, he's a worse magician than Criss Angel. (rofl) And he doesn't...

    Am I suited for it yet?

    I would have to disagree with not getting the Trilogy yet. EverythingElse (Disc 3) has Flourishes 101 on it, if he gets the Trilogy and goes through the flourishes 101 section and masters those. I think he'll have enough of a base to move onto the Trilogy Flourishes (Disc 2). Plus, he'll have...

    Influence on my friends

    Sorry to be in such a grumpy mood, but I'm going to disagree with some of the posts. Why don't you want anyone else doing it? Are they stealing your light? Magic isn't just your thing, there are thousands of magicians all over the world. They can go on youtube and watch videos of David Blaine...

    Also... 52 5+2=7 7 days in a week. Coincidence? I think not. :eek: Seems like that movie The Number 23. :p Peace! Tyler

    Revealing...

    I agree that revealing tricks to the public is wrong and stupid and that these videos need to be banned. But, there are several things you can do and not do. (I'm going to post the same things Hawk7 said, with some modifications)...
