Hi, Craig. Any chance you can devote some of your extraordinary creativity to the old stand-by criss cross force? Are there any subtleties, nuisances, or other disguises that you can lend to it? I know it is nearly perfect already, but I'm sure you would be able to write an entire book about it. Sincere thanks for everything you do!
hey craig I would like to clarify what I mean by asi winds acaan as a tossed out deck. I did not know that the tossed out deck was the name of the trick I was just going to throw the deck out to have the audience pick a card and a number. I also had an idea where I throw out a deck of cards to pick spectators for the first two tricks then during my name divination I have the person also think of a number 1-50 along with the name and also keep the odd backed card from chicago opener on stage. then I can explain what acaan is as say that we have a card and a number from the two prior routines, then I can point to the deck of cards we have been using to pick spectators and use it for the acaan. I thought that, that would be a nice way to tie the whole act together.
Hi Craig! You mentioned proper microphone technique and the planning that it takes in a recent video (5 things a magician should never do). Could you elaborate on what that entails?
Always appreciate your input, Craig. Courtesy of the netrix, my coin sleights are at a point where I feel competent, which is why I was asking for coin set recommendations. I currently just have a handful of half dollars and a quiver, which offers a good amount of material but I'm looking to expand
Don't take this week's question the wrong way, but isn't the Matt Test null and void now? He's a magician, and knows the basic methods of plenty of effects
Hey Craig! I'm super excited as I've just got my first credit in the Magic industry. Last year , I submitted an idea for the F.A.S.T project on MindFX by Daniel Dorian Johnson and Michael Murray shot and filmed a tutorial for it and it has been added to the project! It is my take on Dai Vernon's out of sight out of mind, it also works with Stebbins! Michael left it out of the tutorial but I can also deal to the 3 mates of the thought of card, and if you like the core idea I can send you the video I originally submitted. Questions! How good did it feel for you when you got your first credit in Magic? And also, could you please do a mini review on my contribution to the F.A.S.T project or try to fool Matt with it, it would mean the world to me, I have a whole lot more to give to the magic world, this was my first and it will not be the last. Thank you!
Hi Craig, great video as usual! I have never been to a magic convention and I am considering going to Blackpool next year. What advice would you give for a newbie that will be travelling there alone? 😬
Hi Craig. Do you think you would ever do a book? I'd be first in line for "The Definitive Petty."

Hey! Do you know when is the deadline for Penn and Teller Fool us auditions? And are you planning to participate? It's their 10th season, you should be there!
Hi Craig, it was great having the chance to catch up with you at Blackpool on good Friday. Question Ryland displayed incredible intuition on when he was ready to publicly perform his Miser's Cup to the point that you witnessed the full performance for the first time when he used it in his Easter set. When is the time to perform something publicly? Is it when you have completely got everything down to muscle memory and a sequence of moves, or is it better to still have an element of nervous apprehension where there is a risk of going wrong?
Hi Craig, great to have the Q+A back! My question this week: Recently, Harry Lorayne died - which of his books (or which particular trick) would you recommend?
Hey Craig, Thought I’d send a funny question in this week for a change, with Wrestlemania 39 in the rear view I noticed that on the Thursday before the event former wrestler Nigel McGuinness was hosting his own parlour show in LA at the illusion magic lounge. I didn’t realise he was a magician, so that brings me to my question: Who is the celebrity you found out was a magician & thought hmm would never have guessed. Keep up the great work, love the channel.👍🏻
Hi Craig I hope you are well, we all know you are a super busy guy and I tried to get in touch on the phone a few weeks ago in regards to a trick, I have just renewed my Netrix account and I know there's a creativity Q & A coming up, could I bring up my Netrix trick?
Hi Craig, I'm looking for a drawing duplication (Closeup and Parlor), is there any technique or product you can recommend? The spectator should be free to draw what he wants, so something like the Osterlind Duplication System wouldn't work. Thank you in advance, have a great day!
Craig..well that's another chocolate fest over..hope you all had a lovely family time..my question: at gigs or functions I make it a point never to perform the same trick twice but recently at a friend's function there were 80 + people there and I found product & pocket handling difficult. What are your thoughts on this & no you perform any effects twice at the same gigs..many thanks..keep the magic alive..regards Phil
Hi Craig I've had apparition since the live launch and it's bloody brilliant, so much fun to play with. Did I hear you say in a video that you was gonna film some more routines for it? If so when will they be released and can you say anything about them? Thanks
I have been playing about with Cube in bottle and I am worried about the noise of it when holding the bag or moving, gas this ever been an issue for you?
Hi Craig I have another question, doing a trick to the bride and groom and giving them something like a bottle as a gift, what would work better, Pro secco or Refilled? Or both 😀
Hi Craig, thanks for all of this! Q about cards to wallet. Presuming I have a good card to wallet slight, what are some reasonable reasons for a signed card to suddenly be found in my wallet? All of the routines i've found so far, and used seemed inorganic. "oh, where'd it go?, must be in my wallet" seems cliche and lacking in meaningful patter. Thanks!
You can bet the "contents" of your wallet that they can find their own card. Let them shuffle and cut to a card, nine of diamonds that's not your card, bam it's in the wallet.
@@Davidblaine18 Actually I forgot I do do a mental photography. I have packet trick I keep in my bag and sometimes I do something like Caleb Wiles routine from a penguin lecture. If you are for real interested, I have a gig on wednesday I will get some footage of them.
Hi Craig, I recently saw The Floating Lightbulb by..... Harry Blackstone Jr?? I can't really remember who it was performed by. But i just want to know what your opinion was on this routine..
Sir my kind request and suggestion is to come up with a coin set [ half/dollar] with all those coins you mentioned [ flipper /split/shell magnetic /normal/ ] and associated routines from beginners to intemediate
I craig thanks for all your vidéos and great advices could you make an indeep video for pocket management because it's an absolute mess in my pocket in the middle of my set 😂😂😂 Take care
This is kind of one question split into 2 parts Part a. How do you deal with people asking if they can put the card back in the deck themselves withouth you touching it. Part b. This happened to me and the person grabbed the deck out of my hands and put it in and I said to them sorry I’m not god enough to find it now and they just walked of saying then it’s not magic. How do you deal with this
Hi Craig sorry to stretch your brain, what do you think is the best 3 magic tricks ever invented? You can't include coin or card tricks. Is cups and ball's number 1?
Hey Craig love your videos ❤ could you please explain how you can roll a polimer note into a ball for Chop? I have your original Chop DVD from it's first release, every time I try to roll a polimer note it takes a lot longer and I fear it will spring open and the spectator will know it's not thier signed note. If you could share your tips on this I'd much appreciate it thank you and best wishes
