Not exactly sure what you mean. Do you mean sell the booklet you write or just give it out with people who buy the deck? there are already loads of books on the uses of a svengali deck and they usually cost... very little... like a few bucks?

but Flashy does equal unatural to the laymen's eye. I just dont see the point of showing the top card and making it twirl 3 times on your thumb. I rather perform and handle cards like laymen would. Though never really substantiated, wouldnt you say that if you handled cards like a laymen would...

I agree that a lot of magicians nowadays are very lazy. But the thing is, soon they will give up the art and move on as they will get to a point where there isnt much else that is "easy". This will leave only the dedicated and the skilled, which sort of improves the "magic gene pool" if you get...

Are we really going to start this up again? Basically... lets just settle on the fact that Mark is a hobbyist magician who produces videos on Youtube which fool every magician there is... Dont say you arent fooled by them just because you think its editing. The fact that you narrow it down to...

Depends what kind... There are gaff cards which can do wonders... such as... Split Decision by Joshua Jay and... Twilight Angels by PH... But there are some which are just.. over board for my taste. I really dont like the ones where people see them and just go "damn.. cool printed cards" like...

Here is my entry... Its still loading i think... damn internet. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M5b4a_fVM7I JUST IN THE NICK OF TIME!

Im pretty sure thats fine

Dan and Dave's doubles are flashy and look like they are single, but they are far from natural... Look at the one they use in Tivo 2.0. Who takes a card out like that? Look at the Genistair. Who shows a card like that?

Just adding to this whole Double Lift convo, has anyone used Ben Earl's Double? I forgot the name as I watched his DVD a while back. The double looks extremely... single and carefree. it uses a twirl around the fingers which actually looks natural, unlike the ones that Dan and Dave use (no offense)

I agree with Zach's "wow" statement. This routine has too much happening in my opinion without a single one being the... dominant one. Each has almost an equal amount of "wow". I also agree with Hankin's comment. Never meant to discourage you into creating and designing a trick. I haven't been...

You did Gator Boots in... class? for.... a presentation? For an exam??? How did that work out?... Wasn't your teacher just like "whats wrong with the kids I teach?"

How are you traditional at all? Your posts on this forum are full of mistakes grammatically as well as in spelling...

I have no idea what Sir FansAlot is doing as he posted a similiar comment on other threads as well "I have this trick and I PMed you the method and alot of tricks. tell me when you get it" what the hell? Are you just saying that for fun? Its like an empty comment edging on spam. Its not like...

Yea... Quite confused... "My brother got beat up by the police. Flooded. In panick mode. So, I hope most of you people utilize this art. We only have 44 years." what does this all mean? Your brother got in some trouble... then you lost me for the rest of it. 44 years...? what?

youre lucky. You performed for the older kids... I did 2 shows for kids in total and did not enjoy it as much as I hoped. Although it went very successfully... I just did not enjoy the whole feel of it. Kids have a lot of energy which needs to be screamed out and basically danced out. Unless...

You got to see Keith Barry? lucky bastard... just for that, im not going to tell you how he did it.... yea i have no idea... Its a professional secret. Dont go figuring it out just because it "bugs you". Let the magic live a little. It fooled you? great. Your still human.

oh I remember watching this back in the day... damn that was good stuff... Still havent bought it though. "I got the gimmick but i cant figure it out someone please help and i am willing to exchange tricks for it just send me which trick you want and i will see if i know it ( i know tons of...

I have already explained I meant original in the context of... context. It may not be the most new and refreshing of plot, but most of the products I find worthy out there and ones which I found a good purchase are usually the ones which help me boost my creativity and style within performing...

Watch John Archer. not a close up magician but damn is he funny and the audience still love him.

Well yea... then there are some limits... well I have no idea where this is going.. so... good luck and hope you do produce a better performance video for our judging eyes.
