It may suck, but how does being an elitist help anyone? JDEN, I've watched a few of your videos and I think the biggest problem is you're too eager to show things. I used to be like that, I even used to shoot terrible videos. But now that I've been into it for a good while now, I appreciate...

If you you're looking for a cool angle proof levitation, look into Bill Abbott's The Thing. As for Control, it's a great effect if you build up to it. I don't know if younger viewers could really appreciate it though.

Yeah, I was thinking that as I watched the preview vid. It's basically a slow version of Popsyble. I do like the chaotic look of it though, and it looks like something that would fit nicely in with an improvised routine I pull out where I say I can lose/find cards anywhere in the deck in a...

I use pretty much all of my double backers for "Sealed with a Kiss", my favorite fun effect. =]

I'm going to make up the statistic that 9.9/10 people who find YouTube magic tutorials aren't merely browsers looking for videos, but people who are looking for a start in magic. No, YouTube won't ever kill the experience of magic. Ever. YouTube tutorials are how I got my start, and there is...

Hahah, never thought of the "that wasn't my card" response as a lead in to an ambitious card routine. Cool.

I hang out in this room at school, and there is a little crack in the ceiling. Anyway, I mess around with cards a lot and drop them and whatnot, anyway someone put a 6 of spades up there so it was just peeking out. Prolly one I dropped. I didn't think much of it for a month or two. So a...

Jeremy Piven threw the Ace of Spades into a couch.

I'm a C student, mostly because all of my assignments are the result of last minute allnighters. If I applied myself and all that I could probably be an honour roll student.

I like Loops but I don't like Mesika thread. Sure it's strong, but it's way too thick. I'm finding Infinity thread stripped down to it's slimmest strand is too thick for me too, so now I'm looking into PET2.0 since I do simple levitations that require invisibility over strength. Looks like...

Card to mouth is definitely one. I actually managed to pull it off succesfully on 9 people, and one guy was like, 6'6", hahah. Also various Triumph routines, and ambitious card sequences. I also do a few handlings I came up with on my own that implement a lot of spectators depending on the...

Not knocking on Ineski because it is a cool handling, much more deceptive than the shaking done with CHANGE but it's still not an impromptu sleight. =[

I like the effect a lot! Thing about the prediction patter, it's kind of weird that you'd take a prediction card out when they're about to pick one. I was thinking something more along the lines of the prediction card being the selection's "twin". Like, hearts to diamonds and spades to clubs...

Some pics I took with Guardians a looong time ago. =] All credit for the idea on this one goes to Iraka on deviantart.

For cleanup just cop them out and hand the deck to someone to inspect. =] As for a follow up, it's not really a big thing but you could probably use a duplicate of the selection and at the very end change the back of it.

Don't perform if it isn't fun. =] To deal with the problem of hecklers just don't perform for them. Or if you're a masochist you can throw in a billion convincers that will fry their minds, but even then the best reaction you're going to get isn't going to make you feel any better because it...

The easiest way to tie loops is with the Million Dollar Knot.

I've been performing this as a standalone and closer to all of my ACR routines for a couple months now, and I've never once had anybody comment on the noise. Every single time this has been what's happened: The first shift they don't really know what happened, the second shift they notice...

UuUugh, this is why I was so disappointed the trick was made available. =[

I never understood what the problem was with reversing instructions. It's logical and just happened for me. A little thing that annoys me though is when a left handed person is teaching something and they have to explain that they're a lefty, hahah, but oh well. The only time I have trouble...
