Magic industry, as in marketing magic. If I'm wrong you'll have to excuse me, I haven't paid much attention to popular magicians in a few months.

Umm...no...from what I understand, he is taking a break from marketing new magic effects. He did not quit magic to start playing cards and cheating, of course, there is always the chance of sarcasm. If so, apologies.

Gerry Griffin floors me every time I walk into Cal Magic...too bad they're not going to sell magic anymore. I haven't been in over four months (and I can WALK there in heartbeat). Another recent effect that gets me every time is "Spin" by Matt Sconce. I'm not going to buy it though, it's not...

Looks very clean, I guess there's a motion that's a little fishy, but it doesn't seem like it could do anything. Looks very good, but I have to ask, where did you come up with the name Acetone?

I had the same problem. About a year into magic, I really wanted to start creating my own effects. I couldn't do it. I tried, and tried, and couldn't do it. After four years of magic, I started creating a huge amount of effects. (Many crap, many, not so bad) Just don't try to force it, and...

Good question, you seemed to do a pretty good job. I don't know much about citing an interview though. I recently wrote my first essay with parenthetical documentation as well. I received a 72/72 on the paper, here are a couple of paragraphs, just to give you an idea about the proper use of...

Very good for a first draft. Definitely re-read, there are no major grammatical or spelling mistakes, but there are a lot of sentences that ramble on and don't make sense. You use a lot of commas, change it up--when you need a large pause--use an em-dash. You can make them in Microsoft Word by...

Wow, this looks amazing. I told myself I wasn't going to buy things until I get all three volumes of Art of Astonishment, but, this is hard to resist. Looks amazing guys, great job.

Exactly how I would've said it If you want a book you can go to MJM or the dreaded Penguin.

I unfortunately can't tell you if it has been done before, but it sounds like a great effect. Good luck with it.

The "Eight of Clubs" I feel really stupid, because I saw this contest the minute it was posted, and did nothing. I did not stop to think that the cards would run out, I feel stupid. Well, I entered anyway.

I was going for more of a telemarketer approach: "Please rate our product on a scale of one to 10. 10 being very satisfied, one being very dissatisfied."

I've added a number next to all of the effects. Five means very frequently, one means almost never. Ambitious Card Routine (5) Angle Zero (3) the Biddle Trick (5) Coin Through Bottle (3) Coin Bite (1) French Drop Vanish (5) Invisible Deck (3) Pressure (5) Redline (5) Poker Player's Picnic (4)...

Entertainer That's all I got, don't bother reading this, I put it in black for a reason.

See you in ten minutes.

All I know is that I want that book collection shown in the preview.

I knew I shouldn't have edited out my accordion joke. Congrats Ryan.

I did, I really liked the jumping paper clip, I thought it looked very real. I wasn't too fond of the rest though. Good job overall. Very good, I had a little trouble understanding what you were saying, but the effect itself was very good. I like the idea of a snap change with money. Good entry.

Here is my entry, I hope it makes the deadline: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3S8wauYRYo4 I performed an effect out of the incredible book, "Mark Wilson's Complete Course in Magic" that uses a dollar bill, two paperclips, and a rubber band. It wasn't the best presentation, but I did what I...
