Totally agree with this. Earick put out this book to showcase his sleights. He just came up with tricks to revolve around those sleights. It's also the objective of the student learning from the book to try and create new methods of their own. From the Apologia by Earick himself: "Finally, if...

About the PANIC cards Irving, sorry! I won those! :p

Maybe add a commentary feature? The artists who perform the effects add commentary on their process on how they came up with their presentation, ect. I think this would be a GREAT idea!

That, i believe is where your presentation comes in. Make them believe what you are doing is important without forcing it on them. Do something that can relate to everyday people (for example using pop culture that's been culturally diffused with everyone). When I choose effects I think about...

You definitely helped. 100%. Tell him how much magic means to you more than anything in the world. Be sincere about it as well. What convinced my dad to letting me go is that I offered to get some of the money for myself to go. When you offer up your OWN money, it shows responsibility and that...

I don't hate WMM, it's just that you get the best results via Vegas or Final Cut if you have a Mac. 40 bucks for Vegas Movie Studio HD = BIG return on your final product. Definitely worth it :)

Guys, like I mentioned before, this thread has run it's course. No offense, but I see a bit of immaturity coming out of member's mouths here. I said to stick back to the topic and most of you still continue to avoid what I had to say. The OP's question has already been answered; with that said...

Okay man, just make sure the lighting you want is just right and you should be fine! :)

Guys, it seems as if this thread is getting off topic. Over half of the posts here are about getting women and how to keep his girl. What he wants is to know what tricks to perform for her along with asking her to prom. Please keep this thread on topic and about magic please. Thanks. -Casey

Also, make sure that the lighting is exactly how you want it. Natural light by a window is a great option, however if you have other lights that would do the job then that works too. Most of the time, I love filming outside because the natural light makes the quality look 10x better. How cold is...

If you have Sony Vegas or any other editing software besides WMM, you can apply a contrast level to the video so it's more crisp and clear. This is usually called Color Correction and makes the final product look better than the original. Hope this helps! -Casey

I mean I'm designing the look of the hoodie, front and back. It's not going to be really fancy and too much going on like other hoodies I've seen, but I'm still trying! :)

Why give a move where you just play around with it and not perform it? I'd rather learn a move which i can use in performance for laymen rather than showing off to magicians. Just my opinion though, both you and I are different! Anti-Faro would be fun to practice, but it's something I would...

Designing a hoodie right now! Anti-Faro would be cool, but I just don't think it'd be easy to teach. It's different for everyone and it doesn't always work the same way. Plus, I would never see myself using an Anti-Faro...

Since the Winter season is coming close, I would actually like them to make a hoodie. I have a few, but I guess I could have another one!

I would love to see more General Magic 1 on 1s or maybe a DVD of the like. Always love their selection of General Magic!

Fantastic essay from Denny! Loved every part of it. I have tried to slowly get away from the "Street Magic." Every time I busk around town, I always perform AT LEAST a 20 minute close up "show." Everyone loves the magic and I can tell because either they are smiling, or I bust out some funny...

Okay guys, I believe this thread has run its course. Like I predicted (no pun intended), this thread has still contained arguments that are unnecessary, unprofessional, and disrespectful; qualities we do not endorse here on these forums. With that said, I am going to close this thread. Draven's...

Hey guys! I was flipping through my TV Guide, and noticed something that I just love to see every time... DAVID BLAINE TV SPECIALS! There will be a marathon of his specials starting at 7 PM EST, premiering with Frozen in Time! If you guys want to see some magic tonight and brighten up your...

I believe this is sarcasm....
