Great Videos

Very true. I didn't go in to detail for that exact reason. I just decided to put some general but very effective tips. You are right, there are a million breads of hecklers out there.

"What's Up With That Heckler?!" I fortunately have not run into many of these evil people but how do you handle them if the show up? Well, if you follow my essay "Presenting – The Right and Wrong Ways…" you'll avoid them about 90% of the time. But here is how you handle them. People may...

I totally see y'alls point. I think we are over thinking the room here though. If they don't like David Blaine or Criss Angel, they probably don't like magic. I am probably 80% right on that. Therefore they probably won't like what you are going to do and won't want to see it. That question...

No problem bud! Glad you liked it :D

Thanks, it's nice to be back! I am trying to do more productive things for the forums than before.

Glad you found it useful!

Great addition! That is important.

I agree with everything 100%. That almost never happens lol

“Street Magic: Here’s The Deal…” [COLOR="rgb(0, 0, 0)"]This chapter is for beginners mainly but I have thrown a few things to help you regular street performers out there… Got a case of the shakes? Are you nervous when you perform? Maybe you have the shakes and you aren’t nervous, or vice...

EDIT :: Wrong place to post lol

All these things are in my opinion. I was able to make a character this way and it worked out great! I am sure there are other ways of going about it. Some people say that they are just there selves when they perform. My advice to that is stop being stupid and amplify your personality 10x's...

I completely agree with everything you just said and RealityOne's last paragraph. Although I never said not to script, in fact, I said it was necessary. I really liked what praetoritevong said. I think you explained it the way I was thinking about it. I just couldn't get my message clear.

Just to chime in, what he means by "The Audiences doesn't care" is that it doesn't matter if you can't make a deadline, the audience doesn't want to hear it. They expect a really cool video as they were told on a certain date. They don't want to hear excuses. He isn't questioning how good your...

RealityOne, Your first paragraph - Not necessarily. I am not talking about style. Style is something you have, not your character. Your character is different from you in my opinion. Your second paragraph - I agree about nervousness make you speed through. Eventually if you say your...

Thanks! That's what it takes sometimes. Some it's naturally steady presenting, some it takes conscious thought to prevent speed.

C.J. Johnson does a great comedy hypnosis act :) Don't quit on it just yet. Make it work, it's not impossible.
