I'm at a point in my study where I would love to meet up with some other magicians to bounce ideas off of, learn from, get advice, etc... I really think it would work wonders in my development as a magician. A small background. I am 19 years old, 20 in June. Been in magic for about 3 years. I'm...

Take it slowly. go detail by detail in your practice of the effect. 2-3 hours not working? go 4-6. I've also found that cardistry has helped tremendously with the smoothness of my card work. That doesn't mean I'm flourishing every second... I hardly flourish at all and when I do it's nothing...

Some people are a tad on the immature side here... People make mistakes. Some mistakes are big, some mistakes are little. Justin didn't kill any body, nor did he do anything to you. Let the past be the past. Let him work out the problems with whomever else is directly involved. Great to see you...

Glad to have been a help. Keep on keeping on.

I think the same rule would apply though. No need to overload on effects. 1-2 should still be plenty effective. I remember hearing Eric Mead gave these private shows in Aspen, Colorado. And had very little effects. He let the audience truly savor the moment of astonishment rather than load them...

my main issue is that he doesn't go into too much detail on which kind of pins this theory works with, and I haven't had enough spare time to go testing pins. :P

They're brothers from different mothers.

How does the shooting process go? (storyboards, etc...) or do you just whim it with a basic idea in your head? All of the released products seem to be of great quality, rivaling bigger budget productions. How much filming experience do you have prior to shooting for T11? and a random one...

Maybe it's just the way I am as a performer, but I know that if I get that phenomenal reaction, I'm going to put my cards or whatever prop I might have, down. and End my set. It depends on the setting of course, because if you have to put on a 30 minute show, you have to put on a 30 minute...

My dad was in the Air Force as well. Retired now. It will surely be a different adventure doing this on my own. In a new branch. If I get to see amazing places, meet amazing people, learn a ton, this will be worth the 4 years.

I remember a fantastic idea on the Kard Klub DVD. I forget who did it... Basically he started out with an actually switch where most people do the fake switch. he actually impossibly steals the card. It uses one dupe, but it's a great way to start it out I think. His performance wasn't the best...

I'll see what I can do to get a demo made.

It's very self working. It takes a little bit of time to create the gimmick, but other once it's made, it's super easy. I just need to figure out where I'm going with it, luckily it's not a one hit move routine, the effect calls for several climaxes. The concept isn't the most original, inspired...

David Blaine and Paul Harris together molded me into the magician I am and wish to become. I take inspiration from each and every magician, musician, artist, that I see though. So many things to take from so many different forms.

Im currently developing an absolutely incredible business card effect. It will either be the greatest thing known to man... or the worst.

Try here. http://www.paulharrispresents.com/ta_box.htm If for some reason you can't get the puzzle box, do not let that in any way discourage you from purchasing the set. You will not be disappointed.

Thank you all for your prayers, thoughts, and support. I just completed the first half of MEPS (processing) yesterday and today. very long days, been up nearly 20 straight hours today... Thank you all also for giving me some more insight into the military life and the advantages of using the art...

Tomorrow I will be officially signing papers to join the United States Navy. I was curious how many other magicians on this site are or were a part of the military? How that affected or benefited your progress in the art, etc...

Art is art... I honestly can't stand watching some kid constantly posting his double lift either. or a random flourish. I'd so much rather watch some other display of ART. True art is magic.

Magic is all about playing a character. whether it be an outspoken one to one with few words. Your magic is nothing without character. And the knowledge of acting and theater benefits your magic, believe it or not... and what's more magical than a little Alice and Wonderland?
