Spooky is my favorite type of magic :D this will be fun

it's called... card in balloon bahaha! all joking aside I could be wrong but I think it's Kevin James's effect. I was lucky to see him teach this in his lecture when he last came to town. it was great to see close up.

Unless we're going fictional as well... Gotham city :p

Toronto, Canada

My cardistry is a lot like this... good luck everyone, I look forward to being amazed and jealous of everyone's skills.

Part of me wants to just say magic Dave's egg drop from Rudy Coby's special even though it's not really him... But my favorite has to be Webster and the duck bucket, every time I see the second part I'm always lagging like a fool. It never fails to make me smile. The perfect mix of magic and...

is cheesyness a good thing? like can the camera trick be in your face obvious? or are we wanting the viewer to say 'hmm was that real?' and not 'well hang on before he did that move he was wearing a red shirt now his shirt is green and it's day time outside!'

one thing that helped me when I was starting up, was I would perform to a small group of friends while out at clubs or bars. Then say I used some flash paper or something else eye catching, other people would gather around. I'd get over the initial performance nerves with my friends, and by the...

Escapes are great for drawing a crowd, and they get the audience involved. plus when you're done you can use the rope/chain/whatever as a boundary for the rest of your show.

Wow thanks! I was worried about marcopaso's entry, that one was smooth as hell. Awesome work everyone. This was a fun one.

scrap that the cropping came out weird here's a re-upload. enjoy!

Well this was fun. I must point out, when I was in the schools it was the 90s so my fashion was nothing like this. but this was as 'schooly' as I could look. enjoy and good luck everyone!

Ha! So may times in school the teacher would come past 'are you gambling? No cards in school time!' 'no I'm just doing magic :p'

Well colour me intrigued. This should be an interesting one. Looking forward to seeing what people come up with. Good luck everyone!

Great tip, there's an Ikea only about 15 minutes from my house. otherwise quite a few second hand stores around me that have amazing looking bottles for around 50 cents each.

I figured the stoppers would be the harder thing to find, I've got some crystal skull vodka bottles that come with corks so they would look quite nice. Just a matter of getting some practice with it all now.

I've always wanted some impossible decks in bottles but they are always so expensive or hard to come by for me. So I've decided to start learning how to make them myself. has anyone tried? I know the technique I'll be using for making them. Just have to accumulate some empty bottles now. I'm...

I never perform to music, (though it is something I would like to do more of) but when I'm working on things I always have music on. but mostly it's just everything I have on shuffle. so I can go from listening to something like 'that 1 guy' to 'savage garden' :p I don't keep music that i don't...

My money tip, that a fellow magician in my club told me back when I started, always charge more than you think you're worth. Sometimes (almost all the time here at least) lower charging magicians are seen as cheap quality. Once I started charging a bit more I found I was getting booked more often.

I was a pretty uninteresting young kid, but one day, on a school trip to a card factory, I was bitten by a radioactive ace of spades. I felt really sick the next few days and then I started to develop superhuman skills if card sleights and body manipulation. Now I go by the name StuPendous and...
