    Business side of magic

    The approach by Jamie D Grant is a good book, but any book on business or marketing in general can be applied to magic.

    HELP!!!! How do I get better reactions?

    apart from the performance/patter needing work, the trick is fairly confusing and not that great if I'm honest. You put a coin in the middle of the deck, then you decide to 'take it out again' why do that, makes not sense. You show a gap that the coin creates when you put it in the middle and...

    Fake Exposure Videos - BAD for Magic?

    but most people who would search for exposure video in the first place would have no intention of buying the original anyway, and probably don't buy any magic products in general thinking they can get it all for 'free'. All exposure video do good or bad ones in promote bad magic and create bad...

    effect feedback

    I agree with AsherF you need to show the trick in full without cuts before people can give a any sort of constructive criticism. My only problem with TnR effects where you have one piece left over is they are a little redundant now. Since there are so many effects, most notably Guy...

    What should I do to pass an audition?

    Do your best routine. Don't bother trying anything new. Whatever it is it should be polished, perfected and you can do it with your eyes shut.

    Derren Brown

    On his website there is a reading list. He works closely with a guy called Andy Nyman as well. He also just uses well know magic principles and applies them in creative ways.

    Anyone know what trick this is?

    Not off the top of my head no. It did get me thinking and I was playing around with a few ideas last night, and if you have a fairly decent knowledge in magic you should be able to work out a handling for it to achieve the same effect.

    I would buy that trick with caution. From that trailer I get the sense that things are being left out but I could be wrong.

    New Stage Program

    Ok so really you didn't have a stage show to start with? Really you were geared up for a close up or at best a parlour show? Lesson 1, don't book a show you don't have ;) Do you own a copy or the Mark Wilson book or any of the Tarbell books? If not get hold of either (Tarbell is in volumes)...

    New Stage Program

    how much have the act do you have to change? Really the best thing you can do is look at what you can perform already and try to add those things to the act. In terms of what you could buy then think about what will fit the style theme of the show and your personal style. I wouldn't buy to...

    Anyone know what trick this is?

    this will be a routine that he has come up with so it wont be published. From watching it though Im pretty sure ( will have to double check) there are elements of this trick in his book Pure Effect.

    New to Magic and Don't know where to start

    It's great to see you love the cups and balls, if you study this effect properly and learn as many different routines (which will be a long process) as you can this one trick will teach you so much about magic, from sleight of hand to misdriection and everything in between.

    New to Magic and Don't know where to start

    You need to get books like royal road to card magic, mark wilson's complete course in magic, card college these will give you the basics which you NEED to know before you can advance onto anything else. Just by buying the Royal Road it will be the best money you have spent and you can get it...
