theory11 — Magic Tricks & the World's Finest Playing Cards

Saturday Night Roundtable - Blake Vogt

1.) If you could do something differently, whether it be on AGT or regarding something else, what would it be?
2.) How do you open up when performing street magic? Any tips or openers that could help others new to performing to strangers?
3.) Was a casual and fun loving performer always your style whilst performing or you had a different performance style maybe in the past? It would be cool to see you perform with a mysterious presence :P

How important is it for you to surround yourself with like minded friends and magicians in forwarding your craft?

How do you pick what trick you pick for televised appearances?

Has your experience on AGT changed the way you approach performances?

(I like invisible card but I wish the prize was regeneration ;) )

1) Not how you got into magic, but why magic?
2) What is the most frequent mistake you see magicians do?
3) Do you really want your audience to believe in the magic you are performing or do you just want them to be entertained?

I was watching that and sweating when the hosts were very insistent on moving,and then Blake had to man-handle them - maybe a little hyperbole but at some points you could see the hosts look a little uncomfortable with that. I'm sure anyone who has Regeneration felt similarly though!
Tough performing situations man! Still, still great job Blake!
 
Yet another reason why he is my favorite magician. Always willing to do what needs to be done, but always sneaky enough not to make it too obvious.
