Reality One and Craig are both members and their expertise in the magic field is top notch so I ALWAYS listen to what they have to say. Reality One and I talk quite a bit and Craig and I have had a few chats. What does it matter where they are from? Just seems like a random question. I frequent...

Mechanical cards that do things are not new to magic although I personally have not seen your variation of the king and his crown. Nice... It would better suit with a story line of a king finding the right queen or something and then he tips his hat. I don't know. Obviously you cannot just walk...

I'd be in but don't really have any gigs lined up until I am back at school with my classroom of students. I don't really care about winning, but could get some good live footage of me doing a Friday performance like I do every Friday in my classroom. I know a lot of you have not seen me perform...

Ashley, Are you looking to be one of their assistants in their show or you are looking for someone to help you with your show? I'm a bit confused like Reality One. Unless you have big props / illusions you don't really have a need for an assistant unless it is an act like the amazing...

If you really like this idea / plot but are not sure you can market the effect because its been done before, look into purchasing Harry Anderson's "Gang of Four". http://themagicwarehouse.com/TA4717/Gang-Of-Four-by-Harry-Anderson.html I use this a lot when I am performing at large tables and...

I've been there William. I know it makes you feel like crap and Craig is right too...sometimes things snow ball in the same show / performance. Maybe you forget a prop, then the venue seating is off, then you flub up a trick or your lines aren't getting the laughs that they normally do. Luckily...

Definitely go prepared. Have a list of questions already written down so you aren't wasting his time. I wouldn't make the list too extensive or you'll seem like you are grilling him in a marathon interview session. Also see if he is willing to maybe show you a few things that you can begin to...

Wowsers...those are some nice prizes! Good luck to all. And may the odds ever be in your favor.....(kidding)

Austin Fields has some great info / thoughts posted. I like the way he thinks.

I would contact the artist because he or she might have already traveled down that road and can give you pointers, plus its ethically right. It's always better to ask first. It also probably depends on what the method is. For example: If you say it uses invisible elastic...then you are...

I think the effect has one major weakness in that once all the spectators find out that they had the same card it pretty much shouts, "I forced the same card on all of you." Just my two cents. You could make the effect even stronger by actually having 3 different cards selected and...

Sometimes you can be creative by taking older principles / plots and dress them differently. Example: The Color changing knives (old) = Color Changing Flash USB drives To me doing something like this may not seem like a huge break through but it is modernizing an older prop, principle, or...

Things to consider: 1.) Was the spectator a friend or family member or a co-worker? 2.) How close were you in proximity to the spectator(s)? I'll give you advice once you have answered these for me.

File size of 3 gig is too large. I'm guessing you have it in 1080 p and it should be in 720 so that the files size is much smaller. You need to have it under 1 gig. I'm 99.9% sure that is the issue.

Wow popchris...I'm impressed someone here knew what routine those were for because I wasn't sure myself. I could think of effects to create with them like flapper card gimmicks and such but wasn't sure how all of the cards were utilized together.

I just took care of it. You are free to come back when ever. We will be here...I promise.

Without good patter and reasoning for folding the card it is so so at best. Can everything be borrowed? (keep in mind you wouldn't want to bend someone else's card so you would need to use your own) Can everything be felt / handed out afterwards?

Does your work servers have any type file size limitations? I'm just shooting in the dark here. I don't have anything to do with the Wire, but I can shoot a message to someone to see what might be going on.

I know Safari didn't work on any of my macs ever for uploading to the Wire. When I used the most recent version of Google Chrome on my mac, everything was fine. I'd give that a try. Make sure you guys are finding (both files) and they upload simultaneously. I'm sure you are though. Let...
