Michael Smith and I did some magic last weekend for some people, and I thought we would share it with everyone. Enjoy! http://vimeo.com/26835033 Sorry if the quality isn't the best, it got messed up when it converted somehow. Feedback is appreciated! Jacob

http://www.magicgeek.com/redemption-2334.html Anyone have any experience with this? I would appreciate some insight, it looks very neat but is it as practical as it seems?

Hey everyone! Just thought I'd share that I'm going to see Gregory Wilson tonight. I'm super excited and I'll be sure to tell of my experience upon my return. Best, Jacob

Yes, I know I spelled "animals" wrong :P Anyway, I'm starting to get into making balloon animals for kids at the pizza parlor I work at, and hopefully it'll lead to some bookings for parties. I have one little book called "the ultimate guide to balloon animals" but I'm pretty sure there is...

Hey guys! I had my first hired gig this past weekend at my local pizza parlor, and it was incredible! One of the best nights of performing I've had hands down. While I was performing, I definitely learned a lot of different things, ranging from performing, to the magic itself, to choosing who...

Hey everybody! I've been talking with a local pizza parlor about doing magic for them Fridays and Saturdays. It's taken a few weeks with the manager talking to the owner, but it finally got finalized. My first night is tomorrow! I'm really excited, I've been waiting for this for a while now. We...

Hey guys! I was hoping I could get some help here. So my English teacher gave us this assignment to "teach the teacher." We basically pick a topic, and teach the class about something the teacher doesn't know about. I want to do something with magic. I originally was going to do the history of...

http://www.ellusionist.com/instant-radio.html It seems all to similar to Geoff Williams' "Anything's a radio." What are the differences here? Jacob

Anyone seen this before? Thoughts on it? For only 15 bucks it seems like a great buy. http://www.penguinmagic.com/product.php?ID=2400

Hey guys, so I've been wondering this for the past few days or so: What condition of deck do you use when you go out and perform? I know using a fairly newer deck is ideal, but they tend to slide around a lot if not broken in a bit. Also, let's say you are going to perform an effect that...

For those of you who purchased the Odd card. What is your take on making a routine of it? Is Lennart's intent to have it be like he performs? With the backs changing and then the fronts changing three times in succession? I feel like that would be suspicious to the audience, and they would know...

This looks like something I would use, but what's the practicality on it? Does anyone have this yet? If so, what are your thoughts?

Hello forum friends. Last year, if anyone remembers, I attended a Thespian Conference in Memphis, TN, and did LOADS of magic there, about an hours worth of walk around stuff. Well, the conference is tomorrow and starts about midday Friday and all of Saturday, so I have plenty of potential here...

So I was reading a thread and came across a post Luis Vega said. "you should never...ever....put your address on a business card, unless it's an office where someone can come and see you." I ordered business cards a few weeks back and when they came in, I was so pumped about them...

At first I tried to avoid gimmicks; they seemed too much of a hassle to always carry around "just in case I get to perform." I didn't have a lot of time to perform on the streets, so school was my only other option, and not many opportunities came up. I got Panic by Aaron Fisher a few years...

Hey everyone, first I want to say I'm sorry for being gone so long. I know I wasn't a major contributer to the forums and I doubt most of you knew I was gone. Anywhooo, hopefully I'll be back on more often and can help out any way I can. Secondly, I need some advice. I'm going to ask my local...

Hey guys, I'm finally going to start ordering business cards to promote myself more, and I was wondering where I can find a good "flaming business card" handout trick. I've looked up some stuff but I can't find anything that looks promising (because I know so much about this thing :P) So any...

Hey guys, I saw ladybug a while back and fell in love with it. However I didn't have the money to buy it, so I was left watching the video again and again. That being said, I finally have enough money to make a purchase of that expense, but I was wondering if anyone here has it and could give...

Hey guys, I had a gig a few days ago at my mom's work and their second office as well and I got a video of it. The video is only the first performance (I forgot my camera for the second one.) I'm looking for just advice, critique, comments, anything you guys wish to bring to the table. I think...

Hey everybody. A few months ago I went to a Thespian conference (I had a pretty long thread on it) and I did some performing there. To see the videos, however, there are some steps you need to take, so here we go: 1. Click this link. 2. Email=cubemaster1011@yahoo.com 3. password=ridiculous...
