    Journey To The Center Of The Deck

    Well obviously I embellish if for video but I essentially do sound like that. Trying to speak monotonously would be boring in a video, I'm not even going to bother.

    Journey To The Center Of The Deck

    I must repeat myself. I'm not putting on a voice. That's actually how I talk. Meet me in real life, I sound no different. Like I said, I'm reworking the routine so it's less "laughable" (although I legitimately do not see how it is) I know how my persona works onstagevand it came across in the...

    Journey To The Center Of The Deck

    Thank you sir! I'm not saying the effect and presentation don't need work, they need a lot of work. I'm just bothered by the people that merely bash my personality and technique. I'm an actor so I'm naturally dramatic, and I find that it's great in terms of holding an audiences. I would never...

    Journey To The Center Of The Deck

    Thank you so much Malibu and Shakutau... I guess it's unanimous that my presentation needs reworking! I'll have to work on it, and perhaps in the future post a new updated video with an improved presentation.

    Journey To The Center Of The Deck

    I wish I knew what was wrong with it... it's not clumpy or messy. I'm very confused.

    Hand Care

    So, the winter season is coming... and hands will suffer. Hand care is a big issue with me and I cover my thoughts and tips on hand care in the Magic Rant blog in my signature. My question to you is how do you take care of your hands? How do you prepare them for winter and keep them looking and...

    Journey To The Center Of The Deck

    That's a bit harsh don't you think? I'm performing. At least I'm not "umm, I'll put your card in the deck and, umm, uhh, it comes to the top, see? I'll do it again, blah blah blah I'm a babbling teenage idiot with no personality". My over the top voice comes from my experience as an actor...

    Seed of Imagination

    Hey guys! This is a video I posted as part of this past Saturday Night Contest... however I'd love some thoughts or suggestions on it! It's a piece I designed for a competition act that I have yet to actually work on (it's just in my notebooks) and I'd love it if anybody has some good ideas...

    Journey To The Center Of The Deck

    I get plenty of work thank you. My style is what makes me unique. How is it engaging? Admittedly the way I presented the premise in the video was NOT engaging. But, with a slight adjustment in my script, it can and will be. Thank you for your feedback!

    Rant on "The Man Who Knew Erdnase"

    I was totally unaware of all of that... my apologies. I posted the video because it was a funny spoof, and I didn't know anything about them other than that. Thank you for your feedback!

    Uzumaki by Dan and Dave Buck: My Routine

    Thanks so much Dan, and thanks for the tip! I found it tricky to keep my thumb on the side of the deck, and just watched your original video and noticed the thumb dips slightly beneath the rotating card... I'll have to play with it!

    Uzumaki by Dan and Dave Buck: My Routine

    Journey To The Center Of The Deck

    Perform like what specifically? This is my style. It's what makes ne unique and what gets me work. Yeah, I don't talk like a teenaged laid-back doofus. That's all part of my appeal as a performer. It's engaging to my audiences... Trust me, I know what I'm doing. Keep in mind not all of us have...

    Brian Tudor. Ugh.

    Chops don't necessarily constitute talent. Just sayin'.

    Brian Tudor. Ugh.

    Oh I'll respond. Assumptions? I've not made any assumptions here. I'm just trying to be sharp. I'm not assuming that those are the reactions Tudor gets, I'm just saying based on his attitude its a huge glaring possibility... And a very funny one at that. It's just a humorous observation and...
