    Performing for groups/Repetition of a trick

    Exactly, I got requests nearly daily to levitate. I just use one of David's lines, or say "I was working on something new, it's a little different tell me what you think". Sometimes when they ask you to do it again or they ask you to do it for their friend they just want to see more magic. They...

    Performing for groups/Repetition of a trick

    As funny as that last one sounds it is very true. We are not trained monkeys and we owe it to the art not to be. As long as they keep asking you can keep declining. It's okay. I was messing around with a coworker about a year ago and as a joke I performed the Baladucci levitation. To my...

    The disconnect between method and effect

    One of Jay Sankey's best selling effects Holy Moly relies heavily on Krenzel's Spellb**** move. Dan and Dave's Hedbergs Peak relies completly on classical method to accomplish a modern effect. Even Calen Morelli's penetration relies heavily on classic coin in bottle principles. At what point...

    Who Here Are Ellusionist Forum Members

    The disconnect between method and effect

    In the magic world there are 2 basic ways to classify a magic trick, by method and by effect. For example Harry Anderson's Mismade Bill and Jay Sankey's Traveling expenses have the same method but the effect is completely different. On the opposite end of things a false transfer and a french...

    What Do You Take With You?

    I bring a deck of cards, and usually and old classic book to study. I'll usually load videos or podcasts onto my ipod as well for reference.

    Telling Magicians You Are Interested In Magic

    A lot of it is a timing thing. I've had some similar experiences. I actually sat next to Mac King for a whole show and couldn't strike up a conversation. At IMX we I sat around a table with Chris Kenner and Lennart Green, the whole time I just wanted to talk with Chris but I couldn't figure out...

    Self Destructing in Slow Motion

    Oh man I hate these performances. even when I do my best material it seems to fall flat for some people. I can totally relate to the feeling, sometimes it feels like you could easily apear on Ellen or David Letterman and other times you wonder what makes you any better than your 7 year old...
