    Need a camera.

    What about the Kodak zi8. It's just like the flip cameras. It's about the size of a cellphone and shoots 1080p video. I just bought one about two weeks ago for $150.

    Art of Astonishment Effects

    Hey everyone, So lately I have picked back up my Art of Astonishment series and began studying them. I've gotten my way through book 1 and 2, and there is really some great material. My question is if any of you have performed any of these effects: Improv Nightshades Buck Naked Solid...

    Gravity Half Pass

    Thanks for all of the replies. As far as the left hand goes, doesn't it have to move though so the cards being reversed can clear the right hand (cover cards). Once it has room, then gravity takes over right? Also is the left first finger supposed to stay in contact with the right (second finger...

    Gravity Half Pass

    Hey fellow card workers, Earlier this week I began to start studying The Paper Engine by Aaron Fisher and I am currently stuck on the gravity half pass. I understand that it is a difficult sleight and I am already prepared to put a ton of effort into such a good move. I believe I have most of...

    Eric Jones Lecture

    Thank you Mr. Jones for informing me exactly what it is going to be like. I will definitely come prepared. Coin work is not one of my strong suits and I'm sure your lecture will help me out greatly. I also am excited to see el cambio nada performed in person!

    Eric Jones Lecture

    Thanks everyone for these answers. From the sound of it, it looks like this is going to be quite an amazing lecture. I won't mind him going over coin work, but I sure hope he doesn't forget about the card guys: :D

    Eric Jones Lecture

    Hey guys, Has anyone ever been to an Eric Jones lecture? As member of my local Ring in Buffalo, New York, we have Eric Jones coming to lecture for us on Monday and I am more than excited. I am just wondering if anyone has been to one of his lectures? If so, does he go over a lot of card material?

    A Clockwork Apple

    Hey everyone, I have searched the forums and I cannot seem to find a review for Chris Mayhew's A Clockwork Apple. I have been thinking about getting this for quite some time, mainly cause I love the look of the holes principal. I was just wondering if it is worth the purchase?

    Pressure by Daniel Garcia and Dan White

    Quick question: I have Jay Sankey's Airtight, but I dont use it anymore due to the difficulty of the setup. Would I be able to use the balloons that airtight provides to do pressure?

    Great find today!

    I raided another Walgreens by my house today and found more aristocrats plus carda mundi casino cards. Mr. Texas that is a great find. Did they mass produce them or something or are those ones actually from the Lazytown show?

    Great find today!

    Today I headed to my local Walgreens to get a few Studs and to my surprise instead of Studs I find some Aristocrats for .99 cents. i picked them up in a heartbeat. Is this a normal occurrence? If not I suggest you raid your local Walgreens : )

    Magic Suggestions

    I recommend By Forces Unseen. It is a great book with nothing but card material. The effects are extremely visual. But be prepared to put in some work, because the effects are tough. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F0wxinoS4eI The link show performances of all the effects.

    Brick of Massas

    That's great that they are amazing for xcm. How about magic wise? I feel that if a card is reversed in the deck you might see the white of the face since the design is black. Is this a issue or are these cards just as amazing for magic as they are for flourishing?

    Private Gigs - How Much?

    Personally I charge $50 an hour, and I go for a minimum of an hour. Usually in the end I'll cover that hour and end up with more than 50 anyway. But that is just my 2 cents. In no way do I consider it expert advice.

    Wounded and Control

    What about saw (Sean Fields) and tears of blood? I think that would be wierd also, but I won't be doing it because I think it might be just as bad as control and the tears. It just popped in my head, so I thought I'd share.
