Card tricks are so weak in this day n age because yo ucan see the person fiddling and holding the cards in a certain way.There is like about 1% 1/100 magicians that can pull off a legit looking track.The problem is they all hold the cards the same way do the same shuffles everything is the same there are no surprises.
We stayed at a hotel whilst Blackpool magic convention was on and all the magicians stayed there. They preformed magic tricks on us. This was one I was amazed by… but he only gave me one piece of paper to write on so now I am completely flummoxed 😲
i made my own deck of cards , just stole some clipart off the tinterweb and had them printed by makeplayingcards , but in thoeory they are priceless as (even though they could be reproduced) they are the only deck like that in the whole wide world and in all of human history :)
The signed card version was awesome! I’ve never seen this method before (back palm. And as a convincer for the first effect where the card is stuck to the window in advance- put a piece of double stick tape on the top of the face down deck. When the spectator is forced a card, put it face down on the top of the deck (so now the face of the chosen card sticks to the back of the card below it. Have the spectator cut the deck and complete the cut losing the selection in to the middle of the face down deck. After the card is revealed behind the glass you can then pick up the deck and show every card “proving” there are no dupes.
Hey Cavan little request can you make a video of tips and ideas for magicians how to perform , things we dont need to do , some example of your own way of performing , ❤ thank you so muchhh
So good wow happy for u. Quick Question im 24 and i do magic since 14 years now and want to get into do it as second job second income. Dont know where to start would be fun u can male a video if this question. Would be interesting
Hey Cavan, love these style videos man, they seem warm and cosy. So I’m not sure if you remember, but I commented awhile back about being too embarrassed to do Magic in front of my poker friends, well this weekend one of them is getting married and I really want to perform magic for people as I think a wedding is such a great time to do it. I have a routine of maybe 10 tricks that I can show small groups of people during the day, but I’m very very scared about doing it for some reason I’ve mentioned in the past that I feel much more comfortable doing it to strangers so if you’ve got any words of advice that might be encouraging then please share 😊
Totally agree - needs to revamped. Turned a classic ambitious card into a simpler, yet significantly more diverse routine. 4 discovery phases - 1st find the signed card with vanishing jokers, 2. with a double lift, use a wand roll on the table to reveal the changed card, 3. Card in mouth while spectator is shuffling the pack , 4. In the clear - folded card transpo with card that has been in cellophane on the table the entire time. Is this still considered an ambitious card lol?
That's awesome Cavan! Italy is such a nice place to go. I don't think you messed up bad at all and you made a joke out of it so I'd say that's a win 👍👍
For the loaded dice trick you should get your victim to roll the non-gimmicked die first, there is a 1 in 6 chance it will land on the 5 use a bit of magicians choice if it lands on 5 then you state that is their selection if it doesn't then you switch the die out for the loaded die
I feel this video contradicts the email to the magic circle video about magic hidden behind a paid wall. Then you advise Patrion for a fee. Just saying
Who doesn’t love a bit of Marvin’s magic and if you didn’t have a Marvin’s magic set then you missed out. I had these and moved into the 2 executive sets for my collection. Great video.
I carry my laptop bag pretty much everywhere I go for work so I’m not limited by what I can bring. Almost anything can come out of your bag and not seem strange.
I used to work for Marvin’s based at Hamley’s in London. Don’t get me wrong, Marvin is a great guy and fantastic magician - President of the Magic Circle at the time of writing - but to say there are ‘50 Magic Tricks’ in 1 tin was a bit of a stretch! You’d be lucky to get 10 out of it!
I bought some in £, some in $ depending on where the best condition/cheapest sealed tin was being sold! $250 is an accurate estimate fully converted into $! Hope that makes sense
