Is Magic Headed In The Right Direction?

[VagueTheory]

Hey guys. Over the past few years, I've witnessed some pretty strange things dealing with magic.

I feel as if some magic is created for the sole purpose of "YouTube" magicians.

There are videos of "effects" and "routines" out there that abuse camera angles and are just so downright angle sensitive, that they're nearly impossible to perform in real life.

Does anyone else feel the same way?

I feel that a lot of effects are made liek this but as soon as reviews hit the public a bout the effects uselessness, a lot of people restrain from buying. I personally only buy products from people I know have released grat effects in the past or if it has grrat reviews. I would say just concentrate on your magic and presentation and make sure that you do not fall into that same hole. Prefrom for people. that is what magic is made for. brighten someones day by taking them into a false reality even if it is just for a minute. And let the youtube magicians have there little time in the light, it will not last too long.

magicians aren't God, they only do things that are situational.... some effects are angle sensitive....how many times have you done the balducci and people wanted to surround you to do it???....its situational...you just have to take advantage of the situations you are in...thats what makes you a pro...

Yes, with the introduction of newer technology many magicians have subjected their magic to the internet, needless to say something that won't benifit them in "the real world"
