...You have no clue how it's done, you like the effect, know rather little about the effect or methodology, yet felt the need to be impulsively rash and idiotic? Oh well. Several extraneous pages of threads were created because of your and others' shortsightedness. The original reason for this...

Hmm, I agree with Dee. They did the job according to your request, although I don't think it's a very good job. I've been in web and graphic design for over six years, I'd happily donate some time to develop a professional business card for you. (Meaning I would do it for free.)

Meh, I wish I knew someone else who was into either art: Magic or Cardistry. I live in Fresno, CA and have only met one other magician in my seven years of interest. He's not that good, and rather older than me.

Magic, for the past sevenish years, has been one of those coming and going passions. I would get really into it for a few months, and then forget all about it. Recently I became "really into it" again, started learning more about the art and history and theories, etc. I don't see it leaving my...

Thank you for your words of kindness and appreciation :)

As C=B has stated, hyping up the effect of C.F.B. was not my original intent. I created the thread to describe the effect, and obtain more information on the history of the effect. I do not believe that this effect is "revolutionary" or "groundbreaking", nor is it even a part of the...

This is exactly what I meant / what I was talking about. I posted my post simply because some of the kids on these forums have said (and will continue to say) things like, "I got this girl's number with a trick", etc. === By saying "just be yourself", I meant relate to the person. Don't use...

Who says I was speaking to EyeOfDeception? I was simply addressing people who do that. If I'm speaking to a certain person, I will include their name in the post. - Ben

God... can you people not pick up girls without magic? :/ It's just rather... pathetic. ===== Just be yourself around girls, if they like you, exchange numbers and hang out again.

Not to be racist... ...but asians are better than us at everything :P Great job, Chinese. As trashmanf suggested, better lighting would have enhanced your video.

Born to Perform Card Magic with Oz Pearlman, purchased from Penguin Magic about three years ago.

Haha. So, Daniel is a male AND a female? :o Joking, joking, don't you worry.

I usually do the following: - Say "watch... now, I want you to watch". - Grow some long, black hair. [ Walk off camera... ] - Perform a camera edit - Put it on TV as 'live magic' /end Criss Angel sequence. === In all seriousness, just tell him that you have a gift for creating illusions.

I loved it. As RebelAce suggested, you may want to speed the beginning part up a bit- this would make it flow a lot better.

I think the editing was great, and the presentation was great. The same exact methodology for this transposition is found in Card Manipulations vol. 2 by Jean Hugard. There are some differences in the published handling and yours, though. Overall, I enjoyed the video. ;)

I agree that magic and filmmaking go hand-in-hand: how do we performers get our work to be so widely known? Videos on the internet and DVDs. But, visualartist, what exactly is the point of this thread? You leave no question nor final comment at the end of your original post.

My research included scouring the net by myself. I also showed the trick and handling to three of the owners of Hocus Pocus Magic Shop, a worldwide magic supply company. Each of them has been in the business for well over 20 years, I believe. And you're misinterpreting my use of the word...

I force cards using the Classic Force. Once you get it all down, it almost NEVER fails. In my experience using the classic force (or any force, for that matter), saying "go ahead and pick any card, except the _____" will get more of a "what the hell?" reaction from most people. However, I...

Haha, nice! I can do the molecule 4... sort of. And I can pull off a slow sybil. I'm going to bed and practicing the one-handed revolution. Yeah, seriously. :/

Look at Jon, advertising on his own forums ;) Yeah... I wish I could flourish like some of the people on here. (Dan, Dave, Andrei, Daniel...)
