I know Criss Angel made a similar TV spot and I could see someone like Keith Barry or Penn and Teller doing something similar.

I'm confused by what you mean by "isn't cheap". It's hard to get anything anywhere near as powerful as the invisible deck for 8 bucks. For that matter many custom decks can be much more expensive. Here's a link to where you can get them at Penguin magic, they are crazy cheap...

I bought a brand new deck for a competition once. While I was practicing I cut my finger with the cards and bled all over the deck. It left a blood stain across all the cards, I have a paper cut and had to use another deck with a band aid on my finger.

What kind of magic do you already perform?

Yes it is, it's a pretty easy reset.

You can't bottom palm the top card, that's a top palm. You also can't bottom palm the top card, that's a bottom palm. If you want to sell a creation of your you should share it in the Wire forum :) Best of luck man!

I would have maybe 5 tricks. That may bee a lot at first. Get them down till you could do them with your eyes closed, get them down so that it looks as slick as you can. If you know five tricks well then that kicks butt. As far as sleights, it depends on your preference. Find a trick you like...

The Wire has tons of magic that is Free and good for beginners. Check out Michael Obrien's Dice Wave, or Kevin Schaller's Clippy. There are tons of easy free flourishes on the Wire as well. Check out Royal Road to card magic, you can get it for a few bucks on Amazon. You should also check your...

I love Steinmeyer as well everything I've read of his has been very worth while. He doesn't tackle mental magic very often so I'm pretty curious :)

I film everything I can for sure. I first pay attention to the happy accidents and the big laughs so that I can repeat them. If something came out better than my original script I'll rewrite it. With most of my mistakes I can feel which is the most pressing. If there was a major mistake I...

Well I purchased the new Steinmeyer book. I'll let you know what I think.

I've looked at Asi Wind's effect. I love his stuff but I'm looking for something a little different I think.

Surprise

So I've been researching and I have a few options. I'd still love to hear if Luke Jermay has any thoughts on the chair test but I can't find anything. I'd like top know if anyone knows about the following tests: Jim Steinmeyer's 6 Chair Concert from his book Nothing but Mystery...

Yeah if you haven't I'd check out his At the Table Lecture. He's got a handful of newish stuff on there.

Cool stuff man!

I'm looking at investing in a new book or DVD. I'm looking for something that can close my stand up show. I'm looking for something along the lines of a chair test or confabulation. My current show ends with a PATEO force (Pick two Eliminate One) and prediction but I'm looking to update it. I...

I dislike the shape shifter for 2 reasons. 1. I dislike the corner discrepancy 2. Too many magicians perform it poorly I feel like it could be a really great change if the cards are handled lightly and it is used as a quick moment rather than a big focal point and I don't think it should be...

Paper Cuts is by Chris Hestnes is a classic in the cardistry community. I have heard only good things about it from those who actually flourish. I was a little surprised when I read this review. It is very disheartening. I felt like the steps that cardistry has made to be taken seriously have...

When your video is accepted you have the freedom to chose when you release it. This means that you could film a quick explanation and trailer to check for originality. Then later upgrade the video. I have done this and I know Gerraint Clark has as well. The problem with this is that you have to...
