The Pass isn't supposed to silent, it's supposed to be invisible and besides who does sleights during completely silent moments? Keep working on it and take your time with it. It's a move that is going to be a LONG road if you are trying to learn it on your own.

I am going to go against a little bit of what Rick said and suggest that instead of having 3 sets, you should have one set with "Street wise" type of routines (Mileage may vary.. When it comes to busking/strolling there is going to be a ton of different advice you will get on how many sets or...

What exactly are you trying to sell? So far we have seen nothing but a post that says "Hey, guys I want to make a magic DVD like two reputable names in the industry! Would you be interested?" The short answer is......No. The long answer is...... No, because you haven't shown us any product...

If you are questioning it now, I would say don't do it.

You have way too many effects and a confusing mixture of things going on. If I were you I would stick to maybe 3-4 effects tops, because it's going to become a huge burden trying to remember the set up for each routine and who did what. Not to mention you'll only be performing for different...

Well that was because you met him when he was fighting a losing battle with Arthritis and old age. Plus by that time he's pretty much had tons of people bother him about everything under the sun and he knew couldn't really pull off the same moves (Vernon was technician above all else.) and I am...

Vernon in his prime. (Like around his 30's-40's).

I would also suggest looking into Toastmasters as well.

I would add to the recording bit, that it's better to record yourself rehearsing an set or routine than it is to record yourself just doing a move 100x over (which can be painfully boring to watch.)

Well I have a few books that I am slowly working my way through, as well as a few DVD's that I am going to slowly make my way through. But, yeah. I have bought into some of the hype when I was younger.. I stopped doing that when I realized I could save money (In the long haul) if I used it to...

I wouldn't look into it unless it was tested for maybe about 2-3 years.

It's an interesting idea and will probably work great for him. But I honestly don't see the big companies going in that direction. Because they have to pay for a lot more than one guy sitting in front of a camera.

If you want to see how to do Chicago Opener justice.. Then I suggest that you look Whit Hayden performing at the Magic Castle on youtube. I think he has a channel and a few live performances of it.

What was with all the cutting and spreading and handling?

The site itself is OK. Though you don't have much to offer and I am sure the majority of those things have already been released before. I could swear that I have already seen the effect of somebodies selected card shooting out of a rubber banded deck somewhere (Besides the Haunted deck...

The Doll performance is nice.. The problem is that the effect doesn't fit your persona at all. So rather than it looking like something interesting or meaningful. You're essentially the guy who produces a rubber chicken or a jumbo coin at the end of the routine. The Royal Scams thing is fine...

It makes him sound like a low-rent Benji Bruce and we all know what happened to that guy.

As I mentioned before, he's also the exact same guy who constantly boasted about the Voodoo doll trick being the best thing he's ever done and how everybody he's shown it to, thinks it's the greatest effect ever. The main problem with magic performances on youtube is that they tend to cause...

I have feeling that's most likely been done before.

He's same guy who talks nonstop about the voodoo trick he does and how he keeps saying it's the best thing he's ever seen and done. (When in fact most people just look at it like some neat toy.)
