    Light

    Cool. I don't own a pair of Dlites but here's how I would start it off. . . Have a school desk on stage with the lamp on it turned off. Go up to it and put your hand behind the bulb in a fist and show that nothing happens yet. Then rub your hands on you shirt/shoulder/pants or something of the...

    Performing in a Classroom :: Ideas/Advice

    Since it's for a psych class you're doing it in front of, I'd suggest a sucker born every minute. I would have so much fun with them for this trick. I would ask them rhetorical questions like if I was making them choose the envelope they chose by psychologically forcing it with my words. Have...

    How to fool a magician

    All professional means is that he gets paid to do magic. Doesn't matter if he sucks or not, he's still called a professional.

    Give Us a Prize Worth Fighting For!

    I'm liking the demo reel idea a lot. Just shooting a raw video clip of a live performance, no cuts, no music, no editing of any kind. Just a basic footage and having T11 tweaking it themselves. That would be great to have and to put on anyone's magic website for their clients to get a better...

    Being Safe vs. Being Bold

    Greater the risk, better the reward. Like Rev, I'd play it safe if I were doing a paid gig. But when you're hanging out with friends or in a performance where there's no hot pressure on you to do well, then go for the ballsy tricks.

    What character do you create for yourself?

    Thanks Rev. A lot of magicians are themselves on stage or at least say they're themselves. But what if you don't want to be yourself. . . What if you want to create a new character and become that new character instead of just being your old self all the time. For instance I'm really...

    What character do you create for yourself?

    To me that sounds like you dress nice, in some sort of formal wear(black pants, dress shirt, dress shoes). You speak well rehearsed and and throw in a few jokes here and there, and use patter that people are familiar with, as if the story could relate to them, something they're familiar with...

    Criss Angel... magician of the century?

    Don't you mean "vulgar" and "merely". :rolleyes: I didn't insult him. I'm getting the point across that he should not care what criss angel does. He sounded like a fan boy, (???????? - sounds like he's anticipated to jump down some guys throat trying to defend cwiss) and there's really no time...

    Geek Magic Ideas?

    Gotcha. I don't know the magic square because I found that doing magic which requires math isn't too exciting. I'm not sure how it works, but if you tell your spec to add, sub, mult, divide, it tends to get exhausting and leads to suspicion of the weird kids in your old math class in high...

    Awesome man. Looks like you had a blast.

    Criss Angel... magician of the century?

    Take it easy there tanto. Main reason is because there's many stories going around that are said to be true concerning Cwiss Angel, that he is indeed a deush. You sound like a kid who just found out superman isn't real. Calm down. Cwiss doesn't need you to defend him on an internet forum...

    Geek Magic Ideas?

    It's a talent show. It's expected to be that way.

    What character do you create for yourself?

    I liked the misinterpreted question better. I was thinking of this the other day. I haven't decided what type of person I want to be on stage. Comedic or serious. This also affects the type of trick I want to purchase as well. So it's really a big commitment. I'd like to ask other stage...

    I love this idea for a SNC. I probably wont enter, but I'm looking forward to the submissions.

    Criss Angel... magician of the century?

    It's just something that gets under your skin sometimes when thinking of many great magicians. And supposedly the one who we're all suppose to look up to and admire is the most non-realistic magician there is. It's a slap in the face to our profession knowing that CA represents us. More like...

    Criss Angel... magician of the century?

    As every magician should do. Cause that's relevant. . . Actually, people I've talked to mention David Blaine and never quite remember Angels name when we're talking about magicians they've seen. The thing about these stupid awards is that it's not about being good or amazing at magic. It's...

    Everyone Wants Us to Fail.

    Haha, that's true. I was in class today and was distracted by this kid on roller blades grinding the rails and jumping steps at my college. Every time he went for the rail, I was waiting for him to fall down. That would have been hilarious. Another example is my cousin doing a back flip...
