Anything from Gregory Wilson's On The Spot.

You could do this with certain types of paper, but not well with regular printer paper. Photo paper might work - I'd have to try it. Cards work really well for it.

Well, I not the first, as Hoodwinked is the same method, but only tears the card in two. Angle proof a well. ;)

Those two are exactly what I was going to post ha ha. Make sure you practice your script so you know it off by heart. And acting lessons will help you present without sounding like you are reciting lines. Take public speaking courses, and perform as much as you can. And also take your...

You can't see it, but I'm giving you a the standing ovation for the thought in that post. I had the same idea about the dupe. Perhaps I don't see this as cynically because I actually use Hoodwinked (same method, but just rips the card in two). It gets great reactions. It's a great effect. There...

This is like a two part version of Hoodwinked. That's excellent. I use Hoodwinked quite often for a quick impromptu t&r. It works very well and in real situations people just stare dumbfounded when you put the pieces in their hands. Adding a second year just makes it that much more effective and...

And not to mention a definite lack of humility...

The one Steve Cohen uses is incredible. I believe it is Bob Kohler's. Brilliant.

Awesome Rick! Thanks for sharing those. I agree, that case looks stellar.

Awesome Rick. Thanks for sharing. I love reading good stories like this.

Awesome Jacob. I'm really glad it went so well! Thanks for sharing your thoughts too.

I like what Jacob said. Perhaps it's more when others start referring to you as a magician. I remember when I was introduced to someone as a magician. It was before I ever called myself one, but it was then I realized that's what I was.

It looks good. I would reconsider the need to put your mailing address on your card. Ask yourself: Do you need it? What reason? Do you want people to send you letters? etc. Make your name larger, then just have your contact methods on there -phone, email, website (if applicable). You want...

Darn, got this late, it's two minutes to the hour and it's only at 56%. I'll post anyway when it's done. So close: 9:03 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1eBuzKEOuBI

Wonderful! THe videos on the YT account are fantastic. They should be on TV.

Oh my goodness. That is too funny. That darn camera, always pointing at the wrong spot. Magicians can't get a break.

That was fantastic.

http://forums.theory11.com/showthread.php?30390-Best-Wedding-Effect-Ever This thread had some interesting ideas given - unfortunately most were close up. But there might be some ideas for you.

Ricky Jay is elegant at pretty much everything he does. Brilliant. Thanks for the link. I can the the toss well, and the only time I use it is if I ever do the 2 card monte routine, then I will introduce it using a simple three card monte first. But I haven't done this in a long time. Watching...

Luis, there is a ton of great advice here! I don't have much to offer, because I am just myself on stage, but as I was reading Draven said something very important regarding being yourself : "You could just be you, but if you are just being yourself make sure you turn up your personality...
