    Haunted Deck

    What routine are you using? There's more than one way to do it so some idea of your preferred method may help. Rev

    Four Aces from a shuffled, regular deck...

    Thanks man. I've been working a lot on my performances recently and filmed a few videos to share with my non-magician friends on Facebook. That means trying to make the tricks less of a demonstration and more of a performance. I will say this one went down very well with the muggles! Rev

    Four Aces from a shuffled, regular deck...

    Hi everyone! It's been a while! Life happens and sometimes card tricks have to wait. However, today I managed to get some time to film something I recently started playing with again. And hey! You get to actually see my face for once! Just for those who are unfamiliar with this routine, the...

    Magic in Spectator's Hands

    Some people? This is standard CMH handling. It's no more difficult than doing it in your own hands (though the audience don't know that). If you're doing CMH and NOT doing this part then you're missing out! I'm a card guy through and through yet CMH is still my most 'requested' effect amongst...

    Would anybody pay for this?

    That's a pretty neat idea. It would have been nice to see a simple, full and uncut performance of the whole routine without all the 'fluff'. Most of the video is just you spreading the sandwiched cards and doesn't really give an impression of the overall effect I would also be careful...

    Peter turner acaan

    There is a prop involved though, a deck of cards which, even when in a random order has certain predictable properties. The video I saw of Peter doing this he did touch the deck. Also, how do you know he doesn't know the order? What's to say the method even involved sleight of hand? Maybe it was...

    "Do you know how he did it?"

    I would never say anything like 'well yeah, that's easy' because that always makes the performer under discussion look bad, and makes magic as a whole look bad as it belittles whatever miracle the spectator just described to you as nonsense anyone could do if they had the instructions. Also...

    Peter turner acaan

    So, what you're basically saying is that because you can't figure out a method, it must be stooges? Otherwise it would be impossible....but surely that's the whole point! If it didn't look impossible it wouldn't be magic! Think of it this way: To a lay person, having the card they freely named...

    My Gift To You: No Pressure

    A QUICK WRITTEN REVIEW For those who are interested... I liked the premise of this as a bar bet. I liked how clean it looked and I could see myself using it at BBQs etc as a nice impromptu piece. So I downloaded it, because, hey, free stuff! The amount of set up required is no where near...

    Eh, Boss...May I Get A Hype Please?

    That's pretty neat! Looks very clean as well. Though the science nerd in me couldn't help but think: If you truly removed the air pressure from inside the bottle wouldn't it just crush on its own? ;) Pretty cool though. I'd probably present this in more of a bar bet style rather than as a...

    Newly Released Elmsley Lecture

    Funny isn't it; If this thread had been about a new deck of cards you would have had a million responses by now. Yet a brand new, never before seen lecture by the man who invented the frickin' Elmsley Count and nobody bats an eye... :confused: Rev

    Top Ten Close up illusions

    Epic choice. How on earth Stewart James ever came up with that principle is beyond me... and Bannon's presentation makes perfect sense and is totally bullet proof. Rev

    Original Trick!

    You don't think? Why not buy 'Bounce' and check, it's the only way to be sure. You asked in your original post whether your version was 'good enough to publish'. Well, lets consider it from a 'marketing' point of view: People prefer stuff that is 'un-gimmicked'. Magic producers and dealers...

    Original Trick!

    This is Pit Hurtling's 'Finger Flicker' and can be found in his book 'Card Fictions'. From effect description only it sounds an awful lot like 'Bounce' by Daniel Madison, which is available as a download from Ellusionist. Rev

    Where to make your own deck?

    $200 for a close up mat?! Where are you looking? You can get a professional grade mat for about $20. Rev

    Where to make your own deck?

    I don't know how long you've been into magic but I do know this about you, from other threads on here: - You don't have enough money to afford a close up mat - You don't know the differences between card finishes Therefore, I would guess that you have neither the funds nor the knowledge to...

    Deck-switch

    The cards don't need to be in view the entire time, your audience only has to think they were in full view the entire time. A good (non deck switch) example of this kind of thing is the classic 'card to mouth' phase of an Ambitious Card. If you do it well, the audience will be convinced your...

    Deck-switch

    Just another thought thought: why would anyone want to spend money on some sort of 'gizmo' to do a deck switch when doing one using misdirection is just so much easier? My personal favourite is Tommy Wonder's deck switch. It's basically self working and, provided you can mask it with a bit of...

    Deck-switch

    Surely the whole point of the cooler is that the card box is an 'uninteresting' item. Therefore, there is no need to justify it's presence, as no one cares it's there. You have cards in your hand so why wouldn't there be a card box on the table? If people notice it, they know why it is there and...

    Magic Importance.

    My main criteria when creating magic is simply that something impressive or impossible happens. The 'impossible' criteria can also be relaxed slightly to include the 'very unlikely', so as not to exclude coincidence effects. I am a fan of effects that are a bit more 'implicit' and maybe only...
