You need to film yourself. Iphones, camera phones, friends android, anything. You need to see yourself perform. If you are table hopping most close up stuff will be fine, but if you are doing parlor for the entire room then close up magic won't fly. It's just not visible enough. What kind...

If you acknowledge the heckler you empower them. Normally I'd say run a heckler line and shut him down, but if you have to go to class with him, see him every day, etc. that may not be wise. Just control your environment. You don't HAVE to perform. If he harasses you just tell everyone that...

Sure. Film yourself performing and link me to the video upload. I'll help out where I can.

Parker, Judging from his other posts on here I'm going to say that English isn't his native language. Given that I think he gets a pass with us on grammar here on the boards. But Parker and Steer both are right about written communications IloveStreetMagic. If you want to book a show...

I'd be mad if I didn't pitch my hat in on this. You've practically called me out on all subjects of my interest anyways.

When the adults tell you "You can be anything you want to be" that's only partially true. You can't simply be anything that you desire. It takes more than just desire to achieve something. It takes failure before you understand the path to success. It takes dedication, drive, sacrifice, and even...

Ellusionist used to "sell" them by giving them away for free if you ordered a crap ton of stuff from them or bought a gold arcane deck. I don't know if they still offer this, but you could try emailing their customer support team.

The difference here is that Peter Jackson has a crap load of experience making movies. How much experience do you have making / marketing a deck of cards? Not saying don't do it. Not saying you can't do it. Just as long as you think things through, and try to anticipate problems before you...

Well done. Are you the party's elven mage as well? Welcome to the forums!

Well lets look at this objectively. Who are the people who would want to use this deck? What is your target demographic? 1) Magicians 2) Gamblers 3) Collectors Collectors aside, because lets face it they'll buy just about anything if it's unique and unusual enough that leaves us with...

You've all seen them at some point in time or another. The math-magical trick. The magician usually tells you to think of a number, then runs you through a sequence of adding, subtracting, multiplying, etc to come to an answer that they've already predicted. For example, we can try one...

Dimitri, I have one question. It deals directly with the apotheosis of the magi. That is to say the point in a magi's career where his or her magic takes on a deeper meaning and the desire to perform simple card tricks and parlor illusions pales in comparison to the desire to leave your...

Wecome to the working life mate! Let's see if I can't help answer some of these questions for you. The first question I have for you is what kind of magic do you do? Are you close up? Stage? Mentalism? Balloon twisting says kids parties while fire eating says adult only. So I think you...

Challenge Accepted: 1) Jay Sankey 2) Benji Bruce 3) Dan & Dave Buck Dammit. Okay I got three, I'm happy with that. But Steer is right. People trade and give stuff away all the time, and on all levels. It's just not talked about openly because it's as Steer said gouache. My advice is if...
