    My Oil & Water

    It wasn't bad. There was too much in the hands movement/cover ...you should have probably made a video with you talking as though you were presenting it, maybe a better outcome? As far as Oil and Water goes it was too much movement for me in between phases.

    How much do you offer for gigs?

    Or they won't hire you at all when you try to raise your price...they got great performances for 20/hr, why pay 50/hr ? I'll let the people who've had more paying gigs than me continue to help, just thought i'd throw that in there

    Talent Show

    you are ridiculous and why would you stop, unless they found out you were stealing ;) A good fun phone call in the middle of your act, followed by sirens and police running down the aisle, there's your exit cue.

    College

    If he starts bagging now he can be a customer service manager in a matter of 2 years with hard work. it's not magic, but it's a job. I'd go for the education still, it has a better success % than not having one.

    College

    Becoming a successful magician, with or without college, is all about hard work and determination. With that said: College is a good experience regardless of what you're there to learn. Studying theatre would probably benefit you more than anything, as well as some areas of psychology...

    The most powerful effect usiing playing cards

    Out of This World always gets good reactions, since the spectators do the effect. If you like it you should check out Aaron Delong's Hummer Deck, and his version of 'OOTW' called 'white trash'. You could create your own 'sam the bellhop' type of effect, just make a story using all the...

    I wrote 700 words this morning without much thought to it. Maybe reading, writing, and thinking all the time has given me an edge on essays, but college minimum lengths were longer than this, and I almost always waited until last minute.
