Hey guys! I'm trying to find a couple different coin productions. I've come up with some (I wont say they're my own, they using basic sleights that everyone uses). Though, I don't think any of the ones I do look exceptionally magical. My goal is to find something that does indeed look magical...

This is my personal opinion on this. Some effects are more easily detected and look better on camera, in proper lighting, etc. This trick is one of those, at least I think so. When I watched the original demonstration I was worried about that, and a buddy of mine purchased it. Turns out I was...

It's a color change. From the book that I've read many times now, magic my misdirection, it says that you need to have a reason to bring your hand to your pocket. I just don't have reason for it. I was thinking I could put the deck of cards into my pocket, as this is a single color change...

As I've said in here before, I have a trick that is pretty much complete. Though at the end of the trick I end up with a gimmick in my hand. I've been trying to come up with ways of getting rid of it, though nothing has come to mind that wouldn't look funny. Anyone have any ideas? Small gimmick.

Pen, from Pen and Teller, was a Mechanic. I read he book some time ago, it even had a deceptive cover on it, so people wouldn't know what it was. He goes over bottom and top dealing I think, though most of what he went over was marking cards. He was homeless for a while when he was an adult, 18...

Hey guys and gals, first post here! I've been reading for a while, just haven't really posted. I've been working on a Color change of my own, that I haven't seen anyone else do anything similar to as of yet. I've seen some things done that are close with Gaffed cards, though I don't use a...

Just wandering about how often you guys practice and all, practice routines, etc. I tend to practice each new effect to learn the mechanics of it, mastering the technique. When I was in martial arts they stressed muscle memory, doing it until you don't have to consciously think about what you...

So, I'm trying to come up with some things that are mine, that I haven't seen before. I'm developing a trick that I think would work really good, though it's still in the early stages of creation right now. The general idea is this. I start off by telling the spectator(s) that the joker's don't...

I saw this trick some time back, and I thought it was here on Theory11, though I'm not sure if this is where it was at. Anyway, the effect is based off of the idea of putting a card in the spectators hand, face up. You never touching the card, but it actually distorts, or changes. I can't...
