    Teach the Teacher

    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...

    A "feeling" video.

    I liked the changes, nothing too original in the change itself, but the way you presented them was unique and well done. Good job.

    Original card trick???

    Very nice effect, I love prediction/coincidence effects like this. However, there were a few things I noticed. 1. Before you counted for the first card, your hands went out of frame and I heard a riffling noise, I'm not sure if that was meant to happen, but it seemed fishy. 2. Like Aaron said...

    How to create excitement?

    Exemplify the phrase "enthusiasm is contagious." If you're excited, chances are they will be excited also. Now I'm not saying run and yell everywhere, but if you show that you are excited to perform for them, it should rub off on your audience. Jacob

    Walking Away_2

    I watched the first one before this one, and it was amazing to see how much improvement there was. Great job on both videos, but part two was really sick. Jacob

    Best Control

    Well, there is no "best" control. It's whatever you want it to be. I really enjoy the spread pass and venus control. Just look around on different sites to find one that fits you. Jacob

    school street magic

    Wasn't bad, but not the best either. The change was a nice idea, and that seemed to get a decent reaction. However, your doubles need some serious work. I would recommend getting the double lift one-on-one and learning from that source. They were very obvious and didn't make the trick flow very...

    Under Pressure: Help?

    Make sure you can do a pressure fan fairly well. They don't have it on demand on Dan and Dave, so you would have to buy the everything else DVD, which you probably don't want to do. Just rewatch it, and practice practice practice. Good luck! Jacob

    Best comment you have gotten?

    Comment: I did Devestator/tion by Geoff Williams, and at the end the girl goes "Can you sign that for me?! Youre gonna be famous someday!" It was awesome, and I happily obliged :D Reaction: Not really sure, I have had several walk aways, die laughing, straight up freakouts, laughing freakouts...

    Jumper. (Spectator's Perspective)

    1. I stand corrected haha, it just looked like a force I guess. 2. Alright, I get that. The misdirections is vital for the effect. 3. If your patter is more streamlined and you stumble less, then it will be less time from when you show the six to when it changes, which will have a higher impact...

    Jumper. (Spectator's Perspective)

    Needs some work. 1. The force needs to be better, it seemed forced (which it shouldn't) when you stopped cutting and he didn't say stop. 2. If the spectators are not looking at you, make sure the change is very well covered, just in case they are looking at the deck. 3. Patter needs work, make...
