I'm sure Brad was just intending to help you. He didn't want you to actually do this on your stage show and harm an innocent spectator without the proper knowledge of hypnotism. That's all. I don't think he meant any harm or a "holier than thou" approach.

Why do you say that?

I'm not saying go to some one and say "I'm an entertainer", as obviously that would be weird. Magic is just one form of entertainment.

I see your point. Magicians can do more than your average entertainer, such as knowing more about the human mind, psychology and things like that. Is that what you meant? When it comes down to it though, the big picture is we are all artists and entertainers. Magic is just a specified area...

What you're describing is an entertainer. A magician is an entertainer. You say it like a magician is more than an entertainer. Not really. A magician is simply an entertainer. Just like any other artist.

Hey guys! Is 45 by Jay Sankey a good buy? It looks great, but couldn't find any reviews of it. Here it is Would you recommend it? Cheers

I personally don't think of a magician as any better than any other artist or entertainer out there. Magic is just a different genre of art, nothing special here. That being said, magic is many different art forms combined. You must be good at public speaking, dexterous with your hands...

I think so. It's pretty cool looking too. Any other suggestions? Cheers

Thanks! I wanted to get both of those DVDs someday anyway. I'll check it out, thanks!

Great job Will! Well deserved!

Because they almost all look different to the spectator. Also, some of them are suitable for some situations and some on not because of angles. Some are very angle sensitive, and some have very good angles. They also all are usually done on different parts of the deck, or are just...

For the things I mentioned, I said where they could be found in my post. Here is the classic color change FREE download: Here And here is the spread pass On Demand: Here The books I mentioned can be found here... Card College 1: Here and Here Royal Road to Card Magic: Here and Here...

Cool, thanks Robert//Livingston!

Thanks Reality, I'll give those a check. I want to get the AoA books anyway someday. Cheers

I've noticed that too. It actually looks really cool. Funny story: I was in the car in the back seat, and my sister was in the back seat too. I did the flip, and (of all cards) the ace of spades lands face up on top of the deck. My sister saw it, and said how awesome it was. I explained...

I'm sorry Mike, but you should be locked away for this. It's too good sounding (haven't seen it done yet) to be revealed.:D Seriously though, I love the out of the box thinking in this. Genius. Good job! Cheers

Robert//Livingston: I actually have the Rice Papers (love it), but was looking for more generalized impromptu pen magic. There is actually a vanish Homer shows on the DVD but doesn't teach. He basically holds the sharpie between his hands, then he jerks his hand down, and the sharpie...

Hey guys! I'm looking for some pen/sharpie/pencil tricks like the classic pen up the nose, vanishing it at your fingertips then bringing it back (I've seen both of those before and always wanted to learn them) and things like that. Any good sources? Cheers

I would second Wallmott's advice of practicing only the moves you will use (but you can still dabble in other things you may not use, just don't wast all you time doing it). For a color change, just learn the Classic Color change (otherwise known as the Erdnase color change). Theory 11 has a...

That was about the funniest things I've read on these forums:D Again, thanks T11 staff! I got Redline for a sweet discount, and I'm LOVING it. Had my eye on it for a while anyway, and this just pushed me over the edge of buying it. Thanks again! Cheers
