Yeah, I saw this documentary a little while ago. It's really great, thank you for sharing. While it is a wonderful insight on his life through this thread I wanted to point out how indispensable his work is to the modern performer. I have a hard time thinking of any modern magic act that was not...

What kind of card tricks do you know? What do you think you might perform? I'd be more than willing to help you out. Also on Ellusionist they have a forum called the back room where you can work with a working pro and develop an act or routine. I might check that out if I were you.

This is a great forum for this. I know a handful of people here on theory11 are involved with the castle. I'm not affiliated with the castle but I do belong to a couple clubs in my area. I doubt they are looking for a finger flicking super intense magician fooling act. On the contrary when we...

Hehe, I'm thinkin' you're probably right :/ Well, just because they came here for the wrong reason we might be able to get them to stay for the the right reason :) Thanks for your post.

It troubles me that many new magicians don't understand who Dai Vernon is and what he did to influence modern magic. I wonder if we could discuss some of his creations and innovations. I am not the best person for this so I'll need your help guys. I'm reminded of a thread a while ago where a few...

I'll start, My name's Josh. I am currently a student. I create special effects and sets for local theaters on a regular basis and love close up magic. I perform on a somewhat regular basis although magic is not my primary income. I've been involved in magic and the magic community for just over...

Hey, everyone I've seen a whole bunch of new people on the forums in the last couple weeks especially first time posters on the Saturday Night contests. I'd like to get to know all of you! I know there's a couple of similar threads like this out there on the forum but it kinda needs to be...

It is probably in your folder labeled down loads. If not you may be able to search your files from the start menu.

There may be worries that it doesn't look great on camera or that it relies heavily on misdirection.

I'm sure it works great, and it looks fine. Changing the injog or out jog to a bre** and moving that bre** off of the thumb to the fingers is something that Marlo experimented with I believe. While it is effective, and deceptive it isn't terribly original. I love experimentation and tinkering...

I use the turn over pass most often. I prefer not to use it in a routine like an ambitious card where I show them where the card has been controlled to. Rather, I use it in the Biddle trick and immediately after I turn the deck over I go to perform a face up shuffle. I tell the spectator that I...

That was great dude :) all your magic really fit the occasion

I think you're taking about Sankeytized volume one or two (the one with airtight) he goes into his thoughts at the end of the video for a little bonus.

This is a great post, I saw it on facebook. I believe they will be doing more :)

Great story! I love being fooled. I like to hold onto those moments. I have to say though I agree with the others. I would hate to perform for another magician and find him trying to find my secret online. I'm sure you understand. Here's a hint though he fooled you with a classic :)

Red: Ace of Spades White: Queen of Diamonds Blue: King of Hearts Red: 3 of clubs White: 7 of Diamonds Blue: Jack of Hearts

Mmmmm Nutella :) Yeah, sorry didn't mean to lose you with my hip use of language.

Be careful not to drop your cards on the floor. The sand, dust and dirt that gathers makes the cards nearly unusable.

I've said this before, joining a magic club is one of the best things I ever did. I have met well experienced magician's that will tell me how it is. We do have 15 or so guys that love show and tell and are as annoying as all get out. That being said there are 2 or 3 guys that are outstanding...

I read the one on table tipping Craig! Good read :)
