    Easy CTB

    I applaud the artistic nature of your videos. You have real skill with cinematography! In the routine, I do think that the load move is telegraphed as mentioned above, specifically because of the fact that the choreography used for the movement of the box is unmotivated. I would recommend...

    The desire to teach

    Charlie Munger (98 year-old Billionaire Vice President of Berkshire Hathaway) tells this apocryphal story of Mozart: I see a strange desire of many new magicians ("new", meaning within their first 5-10 years of being a magician, or even earlier) to teach magic. They either make tutorials on...

    Saturday Night Contest - Your Rarest Deck!

    Here is my entry, featuring the NOC x Midnight Edition: https://www.instagram.com/p/CbUOepYONyC/ This is how a typical midnight magic scripting session might look, set to the dramatic sounds of Blackstar by David Bowie. Yes, that's one of my antique typewriters in the back! Oh, and the photo...

    Favourite SvenPad routines?

    If you still have a Svenpad that is set up to force a song, you should consider using Michael Pilkey's reveal, "SIRIously Mental". It can be learned from various sources- Genii magazine and online as a download are two options available to learn it. However, you can learn it best (and how to set...

    Trick I created!

    The moves look good! But is it a trick that you created? A handling is where you keep the effect the same, and just alter the method (For example, performing the ambitious card, and substituting your own moves to make the card appear on top.) In your video, you have performed existing moves to...

    Favorite Magic Apps

    If you use a forcing app, you should check out the March issue of The Hermit Magazine, and read “SIRIously Mental” for an amazing reveal by Michael Pilkey (now for Android and iPhone users alike).

    Whiskey glads themed magic

    Card Under Glass (Doc Eason, J.C. Wagner, etc.) is an obvious choice here as it leads into the card being “in” the drink at the end. Perhaps a “salt shaker through table” sort of routine could help with the switch that you need to execute, and it can repurpose one of the coins previously used...

    Choosing to fail (for comedy)

    I love when comedians "do magic", and the late, great Sean Lock's prediction effect in the video below is an excellent minute and a half of TV comedy that is well worth your time. Do magicians take themselves too seriously? Why don't we put moments like this in our shows? Sean reminds us that...

    How to ACTUALLY learn magic, or... anything.

    Hey guys, I see a lot of magicians and members of this forum who seem to think that learning magic involves reading it in a book (best case scenario) or watching a tutorial (more common) on YouTube or the like, playing with it for an hour or so, and then posting a video of themselves performing...

    Virtual stage illusion simulator...

    Wow, I would have never thought to use a virtual simulation over just doing it in person. Surely it would be easier to just do a rehearsal or physical run-through for some strategically placed cameras? Even if you don't have working props built, you could get a sense of what "works" just by...
