    Is the Clipshift an overused move?

    We dont see constant videos of solely double lifts being executed like the clipshift. Btw,just to be a jerk,ill just use the undercover switch instead of a double.

    My Modified Version :: Top Shot

    So the difference between an 'original' variation and the real one is that the card lands face down? Btw i dont think it will matter much who's it is,because who would print this for you and why? Its just a variation. Maybe you can have credibilty with people on the forums but I dont think...

    Repeating effects

    ok,a runthrough. The card that most magicians play when performing magic with cards is the "arent I clever" card. Just a hey let me show you a trick manner with nothing to commit the spectator to actually watch you and very little to no connection with that spectator. "close-up magic...

    I think he's just making fun of youtube magicians who advertise as if on T.V. (most notably Lamont McGee)

    I dont perform this effect for whatever grows to be 'useful'. I have three different scripts I use for this effect that is about life,how miraculous the earth is,and beauty. The chance to make an margarita afterwards is pretty irrelevant.

    I havent seen this effect of his,but i dont get why you would make margarita's after at all? im nonplussed at that. If your talking about that old "do i end clean" thing.Yes,I do. I make these effects for myself to use and for the spectators,not to sell to anybody.

    Repeating effects

    The answer for me,is a big Duh.Without presentation or anything to interest them. You say some specs get bored with presentation,dont you think it means THAT certain presentation was boring? Im not telling you to drown them in a script. A bunch of subtleties add spectator interests in effects...

    Repeating effects

    A very good point,I honestly love card techniques and cheating.Heck, I even gamble.I just detest the way most magicians present them and do effects with them. Its always "hey let me show you something..pick a card" ugh. There is no Drama,nothing to interest them other than a small spectacle...

    Can mentalism be combined with magic?

    Yeah,ok.You didnt really say anything. There are people who will always think you can do what your pretending to do. The better performer you are,the more they will believe it to be true.

    Repeating effects

    To them,they are shown as singular tricks. Since they are not presented as spur of the moment miracles,laymen get the idea that what one does can be repeated.

    Can mentalism be combined with magic?

    People naturally think magicians can read minds either way. Your asking if people will believe if one can actually read minds,is the same as do you think people actually think you perform real magic.

    Has anyone seen 'Eco Edition' Cards?

    I see them at every wal-mart and Target. They are real slippery and smooth. Made from recycled material instead of regular cards which use up new material and then is thrown away,for smokeandmirrors41.
