Well, I'm officially tossing my hat into the ring. Good luck everyone!

Still working on ideas. Can't speak for their originality, though :/ This is a really tough one.

Sure thing! I'll pm you my info.

Either way, this is a really good idea! I don't have anything in mind that can compete with that so I may table my little ideas for now. You've got my vote for this one :D

That's really clever! Patter could use a bit of work but the handling and the justification for everything is logical. The Manila Folder line was silly in the best possible way :D

David Copperfield is the one who first sparked my interest in magic at a young age, and will forever be my biggest inspiration in magic. It wasn't till years later when I began practicing the art that I began learning more magicians who fanned the flames of my passion. Michael Ammar, Larry...

It's the greatest out!

Anytime brother. Good luck in your quest for mastery!

I began with a mentor but we parted ways due to unrelated reasons. He also had a different perception of magic than I did. I personally would love to have a mentor again. To be able to sit down with a seasoned professional to discuss magic and presentation is something I am severely lacking. My...

Precisely what Chris.T said. That 5 minutes is going to fly by, especially since it's going to be on a topic that you care about. Maybe have a card trick or two prepared in case your professor or classmates ask you to perform something.

MOVE by Marc Smith. I felt cheated out of my money when I downloaded that trick because the advertising points did not match up with the product. The trick is good because it's the haunted deck but I will never substitute my Loops or Tarantula for this method.

I am in the same boat as you. I love magic. I love performing. I just have a hard time trying to push myself to get out there in front of complete strangers and put yourself out on the line. I don't think it has anything to do with hate towards people, but more overcoming the language barrier we...

The site isn't completely mobile friendly. Watching videos is a pain because if you're trying to fast forward to a specific spot it is never the place you wanted. Also, if I am trying to search for something in the forums the search bar doesn't show up and I cant see what I'm typing. Samsung...

Anyone else feel proud at the mention of Theory 11? It was the first time I've ever heard it mentioned on TV. Excellent performance Blake!

I was actually looking up Tom Mullica for a response to this post and came across that!

1. Is there a trick that you have created that you will not share/release? 2. How do you approach people you want to do magic for? 3. What was it like to work/create for David Copperfield? Congrats Blake for your TV appearance! And good luck everyone!

I will look into that set. Thanks, David! I also came across a set from magic makers that includes the extra coin so I am considering that one as well.

This is really good advice! I learned to practice the move while watching TV, and that helped make the move more silent. The audience shouldn't see the move of course, but you have to be sure they don't hear it happening as well.

I once had the idea of using a Pringles can to accomplish the same basic effect as Dean's Box. The can would have to be modified of course, and your hands would have to be really small but hey, it's an idea (didn't say it was good) xD

A little while ago some of us were discussing Scotch and Soda, among other tricks, and it really made me want to get a set for myself. So, I want to reach out to you guys and ask what is the best S&S set around? I am looking for a set that uses the Mexican 20 centavo gimmick, due to the...
