Good point... I'll figure something out :)

So I was thinking... I got some inspiration from Daniel Madison and the Penn and Teller act I watched. I'm going to show a Manila envelope completely empty, then close it up and set it down. Next I'll get a completely unopened, cellophane wrapped deck of cards. I'll have someone pick a card and...

That is a good idea xD haha, guess it's impressive however you do it. I'm gonna search P&T vids to see if I can come up with any more

Actually taping his mouth closed first makes the possibility of sliding the card into his mouth completely impossible. That's the whole basic idea of the trick... Getti it into his mouth in an impossible way

Thank you :) I'll definitely get the complete course on magic and I'll work on the acting skills over the course of the year. I appreciate the advice

@steerpike I've got 2/3 of the school year, more than plenty of time to prepare. I'm good with simple close card magic. I've got the trilogy by D&D, Metal 1&2 by Eric jones, and Dangerous by Daniel Madison. I know A LOT of tricks taught on T11, Ellusionist, and D&D. I don't think the show has...

This won't help much on the twirl, which you'll get better at with practice, but rather the ending. When I do Flickr, I don't like to make a big circle, as that can throw the card off balance. I like to do it in a more forward and back motion. With my left hand I'll often do a Charlier cut and...

I'm a senior this year, and every year I've wanted to do the talent show, and its now or never. Originally I was going to do a bunch of different sized Rubik's cubes... But that's a bit harder than it seems... I've only ever known street magic and close up work, not the kind of stuff that you...

Haha, that's why I don't watch reviews on youtube of people opening the cards. You can't tell right out of the box.. And I feel like theory 11 is biased as far as reviews go, because I've written bad reviews that haven't been published. But I just gotta know if these decks are all bad or just...

I've had some incredible decks from T11... And some awful ones. I ordered the Sentinels and I was completely unimpressed by their lack of shine and appeal, unlike what I saw in the video. The more I used them however, the more I fell in love with the handling and ease of the deck, and now it's...

Really good advice :) thank you

Thanks :) and I'll have to check out the Solo DVD. I need to get a few DVDs now...

I know some basic cuts and short flourishes, but I don't really know any that stand out or that last more than a few seconds. Does anyone have some suggestions on things I could look at or learn? I really like longer complex moves such as Pandora by Dan & Dave, but I'm far from being an expert...

Well I live about thirty minutes from Kentucky xD we should meet up someday

DANG there's a lot of tricks in that book. Hahaha

@Jokerzingo you're correct :) magic is all about enjoyment and amazement, and by applying that effect, it can enhance any routine, even the most simple. Thank you

Check out some of Dan & Dave's free beginner flourishes. They teach many basic moves and cuts and they're all fairly easy to learn and do. Try YouTube and Squidoo has a list of 100 flourishes and tutorials. Go to Kardistry.com and check out their tutorials and try The Cuso, though the site is...

I'm not unwilling to pay for a good trick, but I can't seem to find any that are what I'm looking for

I'm new to everything involving coins, and I was wondering if anyone knows of any incredible coin tricks that are completely impromptu. I'm tired of needing bottles with slits in them and I don't know where to find any good tricks without buying a DVD
