Yeah that is about the dumbest thing I have heard in a long time. Wizardry LMAO Joe

you hit right on the head, if you want to be good and give the spectators what they deserve you have to study. I posted a thread about misdirection trying to get a topic going about the psychology of it and how it works, but nothing. People would rather post about the latest Chris Angle gossip...

having or made for a number of useful or practical purposes rather than a single, specialized one this is the def for the word "utility". I am certain that with some imagination almost any move in magic could fit this def, considering that I know several moves that were designed around one...

Yeah keep working on that one. Joe

Don't be ridiculous; like none of us have ever watch a free tutorial, or downloaded a free PDF on magic, Exposer is part of magic. I agree that you should not go around just giving the locations of free magic secrets out to anyone that asks. I had to hunt down my own tricks and I bought most...

Nice I love it simple and reactive. great stuff keep it up. Joe

Try doing this trick for a spectator and combining the prestige with an invisible palm. This ending is done by Brad C form Ellusionist in his Ambitious Card DVD. I have had great reactions using this ending and quite frankly it adds the zip that the biddle trick needs. This effect is...

Actually I played around with this pass last night and I stand 100% corrected. I think that is could be quite effective for a few different effects, and I was able to get it down in about 10min. Sorry I seemed critical before just never seen this pass done before. Thanks Joe

I agree with that completely!

shoot man you throw a couple of coin tricks in that thing giving you time and opportunity to do some deck switching and you will have your self a great routine. I thought it was great anyway. The patter was fast but it seem to fit, and the slights where good. It was so nice to see a real...

Me too... like some kinda of junky I take my cards every where.

have you done this for spectators that are burning the deck it seems too complicated to be easy enough to do in the off beat. for me it is not passable enough (pun intended). Joe

OK I just thought that I would throw this out there. I had a lot of fun taking Psychology in college and I am still working on my degree. This is exactly what magicians deal with when it comes to misdirection. The ability that the magician has to make the spectator think they have seen...

I never thought of a routine as something that could be stolen. However, I guess if you created your routine and the patter around it, so it works, and someone uses it to the letter it would kinda low of them. As far as a routine I always figured that just to be the order that someone puts the...

I do a chosen card to sealed water bottle called "Flicker", well one time I modified it and did it into a sealed coffee can for about 20 people. A guy told me I was one of the best magicians he had ever seen, and that the trick was the best trick he has ever seen in person. I was walking on...

I have about 2hrs of Vid to go through from over here Ijust do not have the time nor the tools to edit it here. When I get back I can not wait to put some of it up I really think I can pull some great reactions out of what I have. About 6 months ago I did a trick where I turned a drawing of...

Hey, I am in Iraq and I have done 4 shows, it is 120 degrees out here and I walk around at least once a week and perform for people. Don't worry about people being busy if they do not have time or don't want to see it they will tell you. They are right if you want to do it you will find a...

Nothing the slight was well done, just do it for a person. The idea of magic is that the magician fools his audience using the slight. In doing so the performer is able to entertain the spectator and all the while keeping him/her unaware of what is really happening. I think that we as...

That is a ver y good point. I have found myself studying attempting to learn how to use mirrors and lighting to create Illusions, and now that I think of it some of that drive for knowledge was because of I saw what Chris had done on TV. Good post dragon Joe

If you think that Chris is not using Camera to produce at least some of his effects you are wrong, there are tells that most production magicains notice right away that scream Vid trick. However I do believe he is a good magician, nothing even close to worthy of magician of the decade but he is...
