I'm fooled lol. That's pretty dirty

If people get bored, that's your fault, not theirs. Greg Wilson wrote that they (audience) should feel cheated if you left early. You're job is to entertain them, which is the opposite of boredom. I think 4 or 5 is too little to be honest. Yeah they say "only three and you're good" but what if...

That was great! I'm just starting to get into spongeballs now, so it's good to see how kids react to them. I would suggest introducing the third ball a little differently though. Like put "two" in their hand and say "I'll make another one out of thin air" or something, and throw it into their...

Thanks for all the help guys! I don't have any magic dealers near me, so trying them on personally is a bit of a problem, but with all the stories about the rainbow and shiny ones, I think I'll make work what I have. Thanks again! Jacob

Dang, you must have massive hands then. It's mainly because the silks take up a lot of space so the tip doesn't fit very well once they are all loaded. I guess I'll just buy a few and see what works, they are fairly cheap Found this:http://www.penguinmagic.com/thumbtips.php Might help a bit

How do you determine what kind of thumb tip to get? I got the "Blendo Silk" effect and it comes with one, but it's really bulky and stands out like a sore thumb (excuse corny intended pun). I'm looking at other thumb tips, but how do I know what kind will fit my thumb the best? Here are some...

Honestly, you don't need a pass that's "picture perfect." As long as you have it down above decent level and some misdirection, boom, you're golden. I'll use the other night as an example, I was doing a sandwich routine for two people at the fair, they were sitting and I was standing. I had the...

The Diamond ones is this effect http://www.magicgeek.com/color-monte-174.html As for the other ones, just make up your own! That should be fun

That was soooo confusing. I had no idea what was going on once you turned and put the six in. I couldn't see anything and it all looked really fishy. What's the point of the other card? It's not located in anyway, so it plays no part. Also, loosen up a bit with the deck, it seems like you're...

Yeah, I emailed them trying to find a solution. It's a bit of a bummer. Do you have any questions on it? Jacob

Pretty neat, but the change takes a little long, try and shorten that down a bit. Also, what's with your pinky poking out like that? It's a little distracting. Jacob

What it is: "Use Redemption for visual vanishes, restorations and changes or as a secret switching device. You'll be miles ahead of your audience before they even realize that something has happened." Where to get it: Right Here First impressions: When I first saw the preview, I was in...

Haunter, I'm glad you enjoyed it! I feel like the videos we post are just us being ourselves and we enjoy having fun. The off color jokes mayyybe could be reduced a bit, but hey, we're gonna apologize for having a good time. When I'm working at a restaurant, I'm much more professional because...

Thanks for the feedback Decisive. As for the title screen, we were just having fun with it and meant to be cheesy haha, but I'll keep that in mind, as it could turn some people off. Do you have any advice on getting them more involved? That would be appreciated.Thanks! Jacob

Thank you for watching! I totally understand what you're saying, once I watched it again I was like "wow, I went reaaaaly fast." I'm just naturally a fast talker, but I do need to slow myself down and let them sink it all in. If not, that could lead to confusion, which is not the goal. As for...

Ok, well we can't please everyone, sorry you feel that way. Thank you for taking the time to watch though. Jacob

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

It almost looks like there's none, although it looked like he cut the deck at some point after the vanish. I could just be over analyzing though haha, I'm really debating if I should pick it up or not.

Since performing at my local pizza parlor, I've realized I'm saying the same thing for about 3 hours, and I'm fine with that. There have been some tweaks every now and then, but that is because something happened or someone said something that fit so well. For the most part, however, I do have a...

Yeah I see you're point. But this seems to happen so fast that it creates an immediate emotional reaction, where the mind won't think logically for the time being. By the time they come to their senses or sit down to think about it, you'll be long gone. And it doesn't matter if they figure it...
