    So you've vanished the deck...

    Hey guys, I just wanted your thoughts on something... So you've vanished the deck... It was part of an effect, the two in my repertoire that use deck vanishes are Aces (d+m) and Zamiel's Rose (Derren Brown). ..What now? Case 1) It's a closer. Deck vanishes are obviously natural closers. But...

    Third Degree Burn

    I have to say, if the spectator was glued onto his left hand while he was performing, he either a) hasn't practiced enough, b) looks incredibly suspicious or c) has terrible presentation skills... The spectator's eyes should not be anywhere near your hands if you have any ability whatsoever to...

    Tally-Ho Vs. Centurions

    I've only had two people ask in 18 months whether the deck was gimmicked. I don't buy the argument that different designs raise suspicion. In Australia, every design looks different. Every design looks equally different. Every design looks strange and special and unique and "custom" because...

    Sad but funny

    All that means is you have to break the stereotype, which shouldn't pose much of an issue if you put yourself out there.

    Convention competion?

    Hey man, I think the guys here have been on the money - even if they have come across as harsh. I've just had a look through your YouTube, and the persistent thing is that you don't allow the time to create magic. You do a couple of tricks - and there were a few "That was a cool trick" comments...

    Gaining Confidence

    The key again is to befriend people. If you become friends with your spectators, they'll be on your side - as long as your magic is solid, they'll want to see more. I've seen it happen, they'll tell the heckler themselves to shut up. You can chip in with a line like "If you know it that's great...

    Tally-Ho Vs. Centurions

    Overall, I'd prefer Tallys. BUT. For performance, I think the Centurion backs look better. That may be just my style. Centurions handle well enough though - and don't forget a better finish won't make you a better magician - that they can be used in performance, where aesthetics can be important.

    Hi, what do you think about that? (Changed)

    These guys are right man. I dunno what to tell you. Your video is better but it's nowhere near there, sloppy in a lotta places. Look at your own video, you should be able to tell where they're weak. Most importantly, learn the basics.

    Nobody knows what the future has in store except them - but at this moment there are no rumours of any.

    theory11 contest - 24 Uncut Hours :: 09.12.2008

    You'd probably get one chance, and if you were drawn, they'd contact you and ask which one you'd prefer. That's my guess anyway FatalAce.

    Hi, what do you think about that? (Changed)

    Hey man... Ok firstly, this is a huge improvement! A few more things: Do it further away from camera, it hurts my eyes and I can't really see what you're doing half the time. It doesn't help that the music is there too, since the effect in confusing... I had no idea what was happening until I...

    Some Advice on Tutoring

    Yeah, no cards... I know a little one who sees me occasionally and she's 8... Don't even try to teach her a double lift - with mini cards - or anything, it's not gonna happen.

    Hey man, thanks for the heads up! This belongs in the Product Reviews forum though - so I'm sure a mod will move it sooner or later, but just for next time :)
