The problem with using these words together..."impromptu magic theater" is that most people who "do" magic don't know a THING about performance as an art. I have said this countless times over and over in both my lecture and in the forums: STUDY MORE THAN JUST MAGIC. If you want to better...

Oops. My "bad"...lol. I just learned a pretty AMAZING routine utilizing blank cards from John Guastaferro. 4 queens and a prediction card where at the end, everything turns blank!

Patrick Kun just released Patrified. His new DVD that contains an effect on there called Snowblind. Check THAT out...

This is Ed Marlo's Miracle Aces. Performed pretty much as it was published in Marlo's (now hard to find book), Faro Controlled Miracles. MY advice: You set up such dynamic lighting and such a dramatic intro, yet the performance wasn't 100% polished enough for such a setup. It was still GOOD...

I just got Off Set today by Sebastian Calbry... THIS EFFECT IS SICCCCK! If you have INK by Mickael Chatelain, then you will like this 200 times better. See for yourself... :)

lol...good point...

A VERY similar post has been made and has been discussed over at the big green monster. I am getting SLAMMED for my comments. Though this thread is a LITTLE different, it still brings up my thoughts on what I have done in the past. I have been performing magic for almost 20 years. (17 years to...

Touche. :)

I have mixed feelings about this. If I was still working my bar gig, I would do something like this. But I have heard that the cap cannot be handed out after the effect. If the magic is happening inside the hat, then the spectator is going to want to see where the magic happened. I see this...

I spent some time yesterday looking through a lot of his blog posts. At first I was feeling a little angry. Who does this guy think he is to be writing such harsh words about so and so? Then I stopped and realized that this kid has some balls. And for that, I applaud him. He is merely writing...

Wasn't saying that HE was calling someone untalented. Someone else in this thread used the word...

The change at the one minute mark seems to be the Window Change. (Possibly Patrick's handling). But yes, this will be released on DVD with additional handlings as well...

Just because someone can execute advanced sleight of hand, doesn't mean that they can also "perform". UNTALENTED is the wrong word to use. It's a disrespectful word and at best, doesn't get very far in terms of "helping" someone...

Do you know these claims as FACT? Or are you assuming that this HAS to be the case? Because I can tell you with experience that even with a huge team of super creative people, it still takes a LONG time before anything is implemented.

If it was for the money, I wouldn't be doing it because I have lived a life of struggle to pay bills at points in my life just because I love performing magic. People do things for different reasons though. Some get into magic to pick up girls. Some to live a life of entertaining people. Others...

I keep reading bout how "crappy" Angel's TV show was (I am speaking on his Mindfreak series). Look, I can't say I am a fan of his, but I CAN say that what he did was create an entertaining TV show that MILLIONS of people watched. Do you think in his meetings with producers that he expressed...

First piece of advice...STOP watching 52Kards. He doesn't credit the sources properly AND teaches moves that aren't his, for FREE... Card College, Royal Road or even Daryl's Encyclopedia of Card Sleights Vol. 5, and Michael Ammar's Easy To Master Card Miracles... THOSE are the sources I would...

Eugene Burger has one of the greatest sponge ball routines I have ever seen. You leave the spectator with about 50 mini sponge balls in their hands...overflowing. Looks awesome. My bud Josh Messado also has a pretty entertaining sponge ball routine. Whenever I performed sponge balls I would...

Isn't that learning from mistakes? :) There is a lot of mumbo jumbo on here. Some good, some bad, and some not needed... I will say this much: Just because I love football doesn't mean I can be a football player. No matter the training, some people aren't meant to play football. Just because I...

Its a great trick indeed... But I have to comment on the patter...made me LOL. "I asked to use your ring because I feel that it is a locator ring". WHAT?!?!?! :) Still, GREAT effect to add to your list!
