    Beginners Magic DVD

    Joshua Jays card book is great too. It comes with a DVD and I think you can get it at Barnes and Noble. I think it's called "The Amazing Book of Cards"

    How does one make tips

    I will perform my set and close with a borrowed bill trick. If I've done well when I go to give it back they let me keep it. It works wonders.

    What are your Favorite Gags?

    Cards from mouth! I'll go to put my cards down and palm off a few. I usually have just done a card trick so I'll say something like "Let's do something else for a minute" then I'll cough a couple of times hit my chest with the cards in hand and pull them from my mouth. I perform mainly for...

    Table Faro

    I learned from expert card technique and from watching Dan and Dave's Trilogy. The shuffle doesn't look exactly like a riffle shuffle but if you do it smoothly enough it shouldn't cause any suspician. Just as a side note it took me about 2 years to figure out how to do it smooth enough to...

    Smoke

    They mean that if the gimmick looks like something a magician uses everyday, like a lighter, a pen, a coin, or a deck of cards. In order to remove any suspicion from the object you should have a normal version of the same object that you can display or use freely. Without giving anything away...

    Live "in the spectators hands" footage Hey everyone. I was doing unbuttoned a while back and my friend happened to catch it on video. The quality is pretty bad and the presentation is lacking, but it is an alright example of the "in the spectators hand" version. I hope it gives you an idea...

    Fate - by Geraint Clarke

    Dang what a great effect. Can you do it with any Ipod, Shuffle, or Nano for example? Does it work with other MP3 players or smart phones? This looks awesome dude! What kind of situations do you do this in? Would it work on a platform or for walk around?

    Ring Throw

    Is the trick really easy? Usually I would put that on something that could be mastered in a few minutes. If you can master it that quickly I might be interested!

    The main difference is the plot. Red Button is a transposition while Unbuttoned is a color change. With Unbuttoned you can do it with a polo shirt if you'd like. You also have the option to change the button back to it's original color in the complete change. Unbuttoned can also be done in the...

    Is it really important?

    I think the spectator is just trying to catch you up. The Houdini plot is interesting, I don't agree with the others that have said that it isn't. If the spectator equates the ACR to something that is thrilling like an escape by Houdini it gives the effect that much more drama. I really like...

    Post "Unbuttoned" questions here

    There are three different changes performed in the trailer. In the first one, which I have termed the permanent change, is completely clean. You can take the shirt off to thoroughly be examined. The downside here is that you cannot change it back imediatley. The reset is instant though. As soon...

    Crediting help!

    Unfortunately they wont do the crediting for you though. They'll tell you that your effect is not origonal enough to warrant a new release. The more research you do the more likely they'll take it.

    Ever had a magic related dream?

    All the time! I have dreamed up solutions to problems and magic related gags. I actually had a dream about my current triumph routine. I was unsure how to reveal that the cards had sorted themselves out. In my dream I did a classic color change. That's actually what I now use today :D Usually...
