    Advertising Your Magic?

    I have several performances, mostly it revolves around less of a mentalism thing, but more of telling the audience that it all revolves around skill. The end result of most of my performances is that the audience doesn't believe me, that it was a sleight, and that I really did something magical...

    Does YouTube drive you crazy?

    this only affects us I think... The pros happen to have tricks they keep to themselves, that nobody else knows, I think. We are all using the same effects that are marketed for us. We would be better off making our own tricks, and progressing our styles. Not saying that the revealing of tricks...

    Advertising Your Magic?

    Alright, I've recently been groing in popularity with my routines in my city. I'm the only magician in my town other than Clint Grey, a middle-ish-aged magician that does magic shows out of town. Now that my situation in the magic community has been revealed, I'm wondering... What should I be...

    When Does One Become a Magician?

    My signature is pure dictionary definition, the only reason I have it is to show how little a dictionary can tell you about the world of magic. I feel that magician, magic, whatever, is whatever you purely describe it as, what you feel it is. Not what a dictionary tells you it is. Magic is...

    When Does One Become a Magician?

    (not attacking in any way...) Aos, you are a very negative person, every time I see a post with your name on it, you have something negative to say. Anyways, with regards to the topic, I have actually taken my first large step to persuing a career as a full-time magician. I am now employed by...

    Thanks, I see some shops in Vancouver on the list, which is great, cause I'm moving down there in a bit, and my worry was that there was no magic shops in B.C. Again, Thanks Alot!

    Any magicians from B.C.?

    Just wondering if anyone hear is from the same general area as me... I'm from Williams Lake, British Columbia, Canada. There seems to be a shortage of magicians in the area. Just curious if there's anyone that even remotely close to where I live. While on topic of a low count of magicians...

    The Destiny Effect

    GUY's! WOH! Stop attacking him like that! Geese, you don't believe him, wait for you'r proof. I'm sure he can prove it, so just wait for you'r proof. If he says he can show you VIDEO proof, then just say something like, "I'll believe it when I see it." NOT, "It's a lie!" "You're not a well known...

I had only been doing it for a couple years or so.... But, now that I find tha I am now graduated, I have more time on my hands, thus allowing...

    Please give advice!

    Well, I'm been looking through this site for a while, and if you go through each media page seperately, you'll find quite a few tutorials, good things to start with, but some are poorly taught. Aswell, going through www.decknique.net, you'll find some good tutorials from some people. The...

    Mathieu Bich - Eject

    I think that, this is an example of an idea that has gone too far out on a limb, it's not a logical point. Just because the guy is selling HIS effect, does not mean that the other guy cannot share his effect. It's like telling a person that their idea is not good enough for the world, just...

    The Second Deal

    Keenan's right. No matter how many times someone tells you how to do the move, or how many different versions you try, practice is required to learn, let alone MASTER the sleight. Practice is key in the world of magic.

    The Second Deal

    Just push off with you'r thumb, catch the top corner with your other hand and spin the second card onto the table, while bringing the top card back onto the deck, with enough PRACTICE it will come to you, and it won't be noticable... If your looking for a better explanation, then refer to the...

    The Second Deal

    the double push off requires gentleness and strictness on the magician's/gambler's part. the cards play a minor roll in the hands of a skilled card handler

My gf happened to have gotten me into magic, we first started learning the cheaper way, by going online and finding tricks for free, the last one we learnt together was the ambitious card routine, then she dropped out... because she got bored of it... I kept on going, and still...

    I use my girlfriend's nail glue... When it's applied in the right amount it looks perfect, but it dries extremely quickly.
