    Hi, did someone know if we have this ring vanish trick ?

    Like that exact trick? I doubt you’ll find it marketed. The video highly edited too so parts of the method remains hidden… but item to ice cube is a thing. Look up Kieron Johnson for some recent additions to the plot.

    Impromptu Card Tricks

    I think lots of us have had similar experiences at some point where some tricks seem too simple and possibly boring for us….so we ramp up the difficulty adding knuckle busting sleights and intricate routines. For me, after doing that for a bit I noticed that it didn’t matter to general audiences...

    How do you start doing magic for people in public?

    I would seek out someone who does what you want to do and learn from them. If you are talking street magic like buskers I would look into lectures or books from; Kozmo, Doug Conn, Gazzo, Chris Randall, Capehart, Sheridan…not a complete list but it’s a start if your into that type of street...

    Virtual Magic Teacher

    Books and videos are an accessible start. Nothing beats in person though, you could look on the International Brotherhood of Magicians website to see if there is an IBM ring near you. You can also find some magicians offer tutoring online. That’s a mixed bag but there are some good teachers out...

    CD’s it was Mirage et trios by Eric Jones. I had some Magic Makers cd’s back then too, Gerry Griffin card magic. Some years later I started buying streaming lectures from Penguin, Eric Jones and Gregory Wilson we’re among the first. If we’re talking YouTube magicians….pre pandemic there weren’t...

    Brand New Magician

    Welcome to T11, looks like you have a good place to start magic, can you tell us the effects you chose from that book? The "how did you do that" and the "do that again" type stuff are kinda common. The "how" questions should be examined though...is it "how" as in "whaaaaaaat?!?!!?" or " how in...

    Who hates magic? Exploring the loathing of legerdemain

    Good find on the free link, thanx! Yeah I read it thru my college and didn’t dig around for a free version. It will be interesting to see what portions others pick to study or get more data on.

    David Blaine’s course

    Looking at the syllabus it feels like it is directed at laymen. Here is the link . Whether it’s worth it for more the experienced magician is subjective. It says you are placed in peer groups for your class, Blaine only provides instruction via recording. I would think the level of feedback from...

    Lazer deal, Thoughts?

    “Watch the card” type comments are implicit challenges for people to sniff out something funny. If the dirty work is done elsewhere or not done yet a “Watch here” type comment might be a bit of misdirection. If a “watch” type comments is said or implied when and where the dirty work is happening...

    Easy CTB

    Good bits…fun cinematography…love the birb.… nice ambiance. I also like CTB as an effect.
