Thanks for all the help guys. -Andrew

Hey guys, I am currently working on a DVD for an effect I came up with. One problem. I need music and I don't want to steal anyone elses. Also, I can't play any instruments. So I was just wondering if you guys had any ideas/tips on how to get "magical" music for the DVD, that I can leagally use...

I'm not gonna lie. I have looked up tutorials on youtube, back when I was first starting magic. I'm sure alot of us have, even if we won't admit it. I've also just figured out how to do certain tricks on youtube, just by watching kids who still need practice performing. However, I still buy lots...

WINDOW Identity Distortion Art of Magic andthensome Digital Conviction Actually theres quite a few more that I can't think of at the moment, I have a list upstairs....

I just usually stop doing tricks, if only for a little bit. One time I was doing the hummer card and my little cousin ran up and slapped the card and it went flying.... That was frustrating...

I'm actually pretty sure I got some seconds too. They feel terrible and are warped. Also, the seal is in the wrong position and they are thinner. Well that solves that mystery, I was wondering what was wrong with em.

Well this is pretty basic but for those who have a double backer and don't know how to use it, here is one method. Start with the double backer on top, and say, pick any card you want, as you spread them. When they have the card, control it to the top, it doesn't matter where the double...

I made one the other day called boxed in. It goes like this. First the spectator chooses a card (no force). Then, the magician displays the box, showing how it has a hole in it with plastc wrap over top, so you can see the cards when they are inside. He then puts the spectators card in the...

Remember this being posted on Ellusionist. Never gets old. It's weird though, how many of those are true for me...

Say something like "Hey, I'm Daniel and I'm a magician, do you mind if I get you to help me out with something I've been workin on?" Never say "Wanna see a magic trick" like I did when I started, it doesn't work...

Don't be so hard on the guy. As soon as laymen see they have to pay 20-30 bucks for the trick, they wont. If they really wanted to, they could easily find out how to do most magic tricks for free, but chances are they won't do it.

sorry guys removed it cuz i decided to start working on it again.

Bring a balloon. Seriously. And do Pressure. Since there is no electronics just use your deck of cards. That trick always gets people if it is done right. But if you don`t want to bring a balloon, try tricks like Time Machine, Tivo 2.0, French Kiss, etc. Just anything really.

Wow when I saw Criss Angel I burst out laughing.

Did a search and I couldn't find a thread like this so I am assuming noone posted this video yet. Anyway it's pretty funny. I feel the need to warn that there is some language, just in case, so you are warned. That you are. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZPm6rVzuRkg Also, I didn't make this video.

If I do a trick like Tivo 2.0, I get a good reaction. Honestly, every time I do Deja Vu, everyone says "I don't get it."

I don't really know what I do, I just try to sell my tricks. The best thing that ever happened to me in magic while performing for my friends was when ALL I DID was do a double lift and say something like "Look the 8 of clubs" then I pulled off the top card, shook it, and turned it over and said...

I am trying to make a street magic video, and also I'm trying to learn as many new tricks as possible. That's about it. Speaking of street magic, today an old lady gave me and my friends the finger when we asked if she wanted to see a magic trick!

People on the street are mean. An old lady gave me and my friends the finger today when we asked her if she wanted to see a cool magic trick! Anyway, just practice your trick alot and then be confident and friendly. Also, if someone says they don't want to see a trick or is mean to you, don't...
