Yeah. IMO, if it isn't done relatively quickly (it shouldn't take more than 3 - 5 minutes), and if it doesn't happen mostly in the spectator's hands (the dealing, maybe even the shuffle), they aren't really worth it. An MSCAAN would be good if you do it in a continuous way. Not revealing i on...

Happy Birthday! I got Odyssey and I love it! One of my favorite effects on the market! David Wiliamson's TNR Transpo is also great! Dress Code is on my buy list, after seeing what people have said about it.

I find that introducing myself as a magician in a setting like a restaurant, or even something like a public venue (or even a stage) is fine, but I think people will get the wrong idea in a school scenario, simply because I will not actively be showing someone a trick while or directly after it...

I will think about this for a while. I'll get back to you once I figure this out!

I like OSYN, but I am already doing a similar effect, so I don't think I'll need it. I'll stick to the Advocate DVD. About to buy it soon...

Thanks guys! I think I've got it figured out now!

I am actually going to have to disagree with you there. If I want to perform to people, I am not going just say "I am Maaz, you wanna see some magic." That's pretty creepy lol Plus, a label gives the laymen something to grasp on to.

Thanks, but I was talking more so on 2 seperate fronts. A) Would it be unfair to other magicians to call my self a Sleight of hand artist if I don't do 100% sleights? B) I have actually found people react badly to the term magician. In fact, I was hesitant to call myself a magician when I...

So I had my first day of school today, and for my one class, I introduced myself as a magician. However, it felt very awkward coming out, and people gave me blank looks. So in the next class, I wrote down "Sleight of hand magician", and it definitely felt lighter. Would it be wrong of me to...

Royal Road is a great place to start for card magic. Bobo's Modern Coin Magic is great for coins

Does it come with the DVD by any chance? As in, is it a separate thing, or is it part of the actual things taught? I'm looking into buying the DVD... mainly cuz it's $10 cheaper lol

Yes. May I ask how much you have actually studied magic, and from where?

If you have any in depth experience with the pass, you would know that every source states that the move is not invisible. Those same sources tell you that it doesn't need to be. It is only good with misdirection It is not a move that is done to show to other people. And let me just tell you...

I would start of simple. Do you have the Royal Road? There are a few tricks in there that are transpos.

Then you wouldn't be doing the pass.... furthermore, am I right in assuming these people are mainly close friends and family?

I think the problem for him would be this: Some dude sees him performing on Insta, or irl, and goes to his website to book him. They type in "Jibrizy Taylor" and the video pops up. It can hurt his rep, but not too much.

Everything these guys said, It's called a transpo. There are also impossible location effects, But those are a bit different (few use cards, and an impossible location means something has to happen to the object, it disappears and ends up somewhere else. They can be adapted to eachother). There...

... That's pretty much how I do my pass lol, either that or with a dribble pass.

Suit yourself. You don't need to misdirect them, just make sure no one is looking. If they are grilling your hands, you turn as you hand someone the deck and do it. You look them in the eye. Whatever.

The pass does not need to be invisible. You just have to make sure no body sees it. The pass should be done so that nobody sees it. If people are grilling your hands, you don't do it. Work on making sure no one sees it, not to make it invisible. Why? Because in performance, you will not have...
