I posted an effect I created earlier this year on You Tube and people gave me a lot of criticism for my performance of the effect so I said I would possibly re-post the trick once I practice it more. I stayed true to my word and you can watch it here. Also, if you want to see the old thread...

I think I'm good enough at cardistry now to make a video on it but I know I'm going to butcher it because it's my first video. Do you guys have any tips on editing it?

I've decided that once I get back from vacation this summer I will want to perform some street magic in my town square. Well first off I'm wondering if I need any special permits to do this or can I just show up. Second, I wanted to try to make some money off of it but I have no idea how I...

I'd like to propose a battle to anyone who is interested. Rules: 1. Trick needs to be impromptu (a setup is okay but no gimmicks) 2. No editing to effect the trick. 3. This isn't really a rule but more of a preference. Try to keep the trick something new or something most people haven't...

Is Foundations just all the Jason England 1-on-1's put together on a DVD or is there more content?

I attended the Magic in the Rockies show last year and and am hoping to attend the convention this year. I've never been to a magic convention before so I have a few questions. 1. Do magicians sell their products there? 2. What exactly is a Dealer's Room? 3. Do you just kind of wander around...

This DVD set looks like just my type of magic, however, I can only afford one volume. I was wondering which volume you would most recommended in general for being the best out of the three. I was thinking on getting vol.1. Thanks, Charlie

Magic is nearly everything for me. I'm a teenager and am really beginning to put some thought into my future. I really don't want to be stuck in a tiny cubicle punching numbers into a computer all day. I want to do something I really love like magic or guitar playing. I think the thing I...

I just figured I'd get some people's opinions on this. So what's your number 1 favorite flourish on the trilogy?

I was thinking about performing some street in my town square this summer and I'm kinda confused on a few things. First, what type of material should i use. Should I try to stick to impromptu or are set-ups and gimmicks okay? Second, how should I present it? Should I bring a table, wait...

Today has been a great day for me. I've been on a role ALL day. It's been a pretty boring and rainy day for me. My parents are out at work, one of my brothers is away at college, and the other is away on vacation...without me. I was EXTREMELY bored so I grabbed my deck of cards and began...

I want to buy some flash paper but first I have a few questions about it. 1. How do I use it? If i hold it in my hand and light it without throwing it will it burn my hand? 2. Where should I keep it. Are there any places that would be dangerous to keep it? Thanks, Charlie

My Grandfather recently passed a few magic supplies on to me and let me just say, they're some real gems. I'm going to supply the names and pictures of the book/effect and I was wondering if you could tell me what you knew about them in terms of rarity, price, etc. The first picture is "This...

I was wondering what your opinions were on revealing magic to your other magician friends. I was wondering if I should share EVERYTHING with them if you can trust them or keep some gems to yourself. The main reason I've brought this up is because my Grandfather is visiting from England for the...

I have an idea for a new triumph trick that I'm willing to share. I haven't been able to perform it yet due to the fact that it requires special props I don't have so I was wondering what you guys would think of it. If you want to hear it just PM me and I'll share it with you.

I really want to take my magic to the next level and does anyone have any advice on getting gigs. I think I've worked by @$$ off and it's time I finally begin to perform for people other than friends and family. Does anyone have any advice on getting gigs. I was thinking either restaurant and...

I've been spending way too much on magic and have gone completely broke so I've decided I need to create my own effects. I, however, have no idea where to start so does anybody have any tips or advice on creating. P.S. Please don't refer me to a book or DVD because I AM BROKE!

I've decided I really want to have a future in performing whether it be magic or music or anything else. I really want to take my magic to the next level and start performing whether it be shows or just street magic. The only problem is I live in the middle of CO and there aren't many magic...
