    The Hole Thing By Chris Mayhew

    It is defiantly one on my magic tricks on the site. I had a little fun preforming it for a few mates and frying them with bot Chris' ideas and a few of my own. I can see this being a huge part of peoples every day work. The gimmick can sit in your deck, be introduced in the open and even...

    Most used T11 effect

    I remember the first time I tried it and it worked was truly an eye opening experience. As far as the nerves are concerned it only it is only the first time that it is scary.

    Gospel Magic

    Watch the third season of arrested development. Gob gives a full show throughout the series. In all seriousness i would not do it, unless I had at least a solid month to make everything I do now fit. Regardless of what you believe remember the people you will be performing for truly believe...

    The Secret To Success as a Magician

    The real secret is to eliminate it to JUST D. Truth be told there is only one secret to being successful as a magician and it is two four letter words.

    Grasshopper effect/wouldn't mind some constructive crit...

    The handling looked a little awaked throughout. Why did you take the 'KOH" out of the deck just to put it back in. One thing that I would personally try out in the real world is working on the timing and the moments of magic. In your effect the card disappears and reappears at the same...

    What's the best DVD on The Balducci Levitation?

    There really is not too much to it. The gist of it is fairly standard and well known, no DVD is going to give you anything greatly different from the next. This is one of those effects that you need to learn the angles and the distance. Not to mention it is fairly exposed as a method. With...

    An essay on the Classic Pass

    There are so many things that I disagree with here, not to start anything just my opinion on the move. Firstly I use the pass a lot and in every conceivable situation. The pass is a close up sleight, first and foremost it can work on stage really well but usually under the guise of moving...

    Go to effect?

    Too many to name. Recently it is almost either Par-Optic Vision, a coin bend, PK touches. Hypnosis and Muscle Reading if I have time to build it up.

    Hypnosis

    In a nut shell the most important aspect of hypnosis is the cooperation between the subject and the hypnotist. To answer your question as to what makes it actually work it is the complete package. I can hypnotise people with nothing more than talking to them, however the gestures help quite a...

    DVD + Book

    Ammar's Easy To Master Card Miricales. An other fairly cheap staring point would be Born To Perform from Oz Pearlman. The Joshua Jay book is great aswell. An alternative is any of the Card College Light Series as they are marketed as complete acts of selfworking tricks.

    Sleight of Hand/Impromptu > Gimmicks?

    Firstly Sinful is a far and away a stronger effect than Distortion. The spectator has a real semi impossible object that they can keep. In answer to your statement I believe that you should always have sleight of hand method that can achieve the same effect as a gimmick. For example look at...

    New Year Magic Effects

    I believe that QB2 is a little over priced. There are better benders for far less in my opinion.

    David Blaine, Think Of A Card.

    The one Blaine used has been a classic since Erdanse, used by many people over the years. Erdanse is easily the best place to look for it as it is free nowdays. Banachek has a few interesting ideas in PS1 along with a lot of other think of a card effects. Personally I would look...

    The Hole Thing:: Chris Mayhew

    The price is very good 10 dollars for not just two effects but a whole new concept that is only limited by you. Vanishing Inc. Put out lesser ideas from Mayhew for 10 dollars each so this is easily worth the 10 dollars everyone should however head over the vanishing inc. whilst they have free...

    Need advice *beginner*

    Dr. Daley's last trick is very nice if you want something like Ultimate transpo with out dupes. It has the advantage that all the cards are openly removed from the deck. John Bannon's Bullets After Dark is a great DVD with very little sleight of hand but amazing effects. Some require a set up...
