Wait, did he go all over the globe and watched all the passes magicians do? I'm sure he didn't. If so, how can he say that the pass cannot be done invisibly? I'm sure he didn't meet all magicians, no? As I don't want to put another shamless plug to my blog (>_<), here is the part that talks...

@Sean_Raf, thanks for the words man, although I'm sure I don't deserve them. :) @chrystal baller, I didn't have any mentor ( actually only saw a live magic performance once in my life ), but to let you know, personal instruction is one very good way to learn it and definatly cuts down the...

Actually you made a good step by neglecting to practice the pass as a beginner. The pass is a sleight that take from months to years to get down, depending on the pass itself and your practice and dedication. The move is being killed by many magicians unfortunatly, youtube stands up as proof...

double card handling, the pass and angle palms.

Its in Dean's website, 1600$.

That ID routine is not his, its Steve Bedwell's, out of Trapdoor magazine. He added the bit of choclate at the end. Cyril is on of my idols :)

I fixed my post, the refrence about Palm Transfers is by Hofinser, not Leipzang (spellings). Jamy Ian Swiss is one of magic's greatest ( and harshest ) thinkers. Cheers,

The bottom palm to right hand is a very known move and used widly in color changes, its usually called bottom card steal too. For a complete description with the details, consult Expert Card Technique, palming chapter. To see the move done well, here is a vid of Jamy Ian Swiss doing it...

In one of Marlo's VHS, you get to watch a convention where Marlo, Charlie Miller and Vernon, all sitting together on the stage answering question. I was like ******************** Marlo was simply one and only. His style of handling cards is something out of this world, while you might find...

It does seem out of place if its done with traditional patter, but if justified, its very strong. Cheers,

And I thought I'm in a magic forum ... This has to be a videogames, sorry I'm mistaken. So I was in this server full of n00bs, killed em all, w00t w00t I do think a difficulty rating, although subjective, but it gives generally an idea if this a good download for a beginner or more...

Yup, looked great to me! Me like alot. Though if you're marketing it, I advise against it, as marketing is a serious thing. Only market things you have much experience performing ( year and above ). Only then, ask yourself, would you buy it? If so, how much? and so forth. However, in the...

Mr.Madison's Emotion Force is far from being an original sleight. To prevent myself from getting accused of anything, here is a history lesson. The concept of replacing a gimmicked card ( can't expose it, but its fairly known ) with a kind of location ( the one used in "Emotion force") goes...

please? :rolleyes:

The kicker in David Stone's routine is extremely strong if you justified it properly with patter. I'm saying this from experience, as I perform a version with the same kicker, its logical and it works. I don't like the Jennings patter as it has some sort of exposure of something not alot...

I read alot on the Tilt, didnt come across something similar, though I'm no way knowledgeable, maybe other members could provide an idea .. I played with the idea a bit, a major disadvantage is that you need to get the cards protruding just enough to get the forefinger under the cards without...

Guardian thats a great idea! I worked on the darn thing alot but yours is just simple and beutiful! Gary Ouellet in his great book Close up Illusions has an idea to achieve that, but its kinda more complicated than yours. Thanks! You solved a 2 year problem of mine. :) A name? The Guardian...

It can be done with a gimmick that has been around for quite some time, and it produces a crease. What I don't like about this, is the overall atitude: "injecting more and more controversy into existing theories of the flawless colour change." This is the perfect hype ... Best part in video is...

Good luck! Always a pleasure to see you post. Have fun touring :) ~ Feras

I would love to know about the notion of "magic is dead, without the magician". In your group's opinion ( no offense to other members, I'm not intrested in hearing other's point of view on this): What makes a good magician?, And are the magicians you're referring to, the one who have "no...
