You can still Claim ownership of it, and I think he was referring to copying a DVD, which is illegal under federal policy. And you can actually claim a copyright on the pantomime around your trick. So the actual moves in an order, and the subtleties used with them can be copyrighted. This wont...

May I ask why you need to get tricks to fool magicians?

It doesn't just have to be mentalism either. Coin tricks are amazing. There are card tricks that blow people away. Even Sponge balls. Pretty much anything. You aren't going to find anything that fools everyone, unless it is a completely new principal or thing that you invented.

This is all a subjective thing. Every person has a completely different repertoire and knowledge when it comes to magic. A blinding card trick would blow the pants off anyone who has spent almost their entire career in mentalism. At the same time, a simple french drop might mess with a self...

I have no experience with them, but am willing to bet that they are all produced the same way. They will all probably be the same quality, maybe some will be Thin Crushed stock and some will be Casino Grade Stock, and that ultimately comes down to personal opinion. Unless, they make their own...

The Royal Road tricks are not at all outdated. You just need to fit them in with your own personal style.

Hey Casey, what are you gonna do if someone guesses x, and someone else guesses the page opposite from it?

Another thing you can do is have 4 or 5 spectators select and memorize a card each. You then control it to the top and perform "A Poker Puzzle" From the second Overhand Shuffle Section of the Royal Road (pg 129 in the Dover Reprint), but reveal their cards instead of whatever it says in the...

If you have the Royal Road, I know there is a Routine in there where the spectators stand up and close their eyes. You name 3 cards and if their card is named they sit down. When they open their eyes, they are all sitting down. You can use a prop like Akkeline Envelopes to do a mind reading...

Good luck everyone! P. 116 :)

The Royal Road has a huge amount of amazing tricks in it, I don't understand why you wouldn't just use them. If buying DVDs right off the bat will just end up wasting your money because you wont really know what to perform, when to perform, and how to present it. Work with some of the stuff...

Do you want a card trick specifically?

Checking out the website, looks dope! Gonna pick me up one of those "think" t-shirts. Nice profile pic btw. P.S. you might want to make a deck and put it on there, a long with a "custom" section, just to double up on the marketing.

Just to emphasize how important this statement is. You can turn any effect into a powerful one. You just need to present it well.

Use the 3rd 4th and 5th fingers to create sort of a table for the cards to fall on.

Gotcha. I can see why. Btw, what is your company called?

Springs, spreads, even pressure fans work with old decks. Even waterfalls, cascades, etc. Also, packet flourishes will work, as well as flourishes using only single cards as the packets. Pretty much everything will work to an extent. It might be a little less impressive for some (eg. Thumb fan)...

I think there is a copyright of the DVD, if you contact Ellusionist they should be able to get rid of it. If they are copying the DVD, that's copy right infringement. Just send them a message in the support team, and give the name of the person. They can file a copyright claim and everything is...

So I was messing around with some prediction ideas and thought of this: If I was making it look like a genuine prediction, wouldn't it be slightly stronger if I was a little off? If done right, I feel like you could pull it off as you mentally influencing them, or even a legit free prediction.

Could you Do stuff on tally backs and if so how much would it cost? Thanks! P.S. I think it's great u can and are giving back.
