Card magic 

Hello everybody,

As you may have guessed from the title, this threat is not about Gw but about Card Magic. A few months ago, I suddenly got interested in Card Magic and since then, I learned quite a few nice tricks. Please check these out and feel free to comment and please tell me how to improve them. There are only 4 movies now, but I will have more coming this week.

My card tricks on youtube

RE: Card magic

I laughed my ass off when your brother decided to interupt the show haha. Want to see more card tricks! Though it got a little boring when you were memorizing the cards.. I understand you can't skip it cus that will make it look fake, but still.. put on some music on the background ;)

RE: Card magic 

Guys, stick to English, I can translate Swedish but not Dutch

On-topic, I just love card magic myself! It's totally amazing to do, especially if you mix in some easy mentalism to create some really scary effects. You don't have to make the tricks very hard, it's much more how you present them that matters. Try to think of some really good stories or use some artificial body-language to create the mood you want. If you've ever heard of "anchoring" a feeling I suggest that you try that out sometime if you're performing for a small audience.

And if you want to see someone who's really good at mentalism (not so much card tricks, but it's cool to watch anyway), then I suggest you YouTube the name Derren Brown. Sure, he knicks his ideas of others, but I can guarantee you that he will be an inspiration if you watch some of his tricks =)

Have fun performing and developing tricks (that's the most fun part IMO)


:::EDIT:::
And I really recommend if you want to learn some new stuff, to sign up to the Magic Roadshow Newsletter. You can register at that page, the button is on the left if you search a bit further down. I recommend it if you want to get in touch with different branches and ideas. Helped me a lot in the start, and I'm still reading it whenever a new issue pops into my e-mail.

I've got to disagree with you here, there are a lot of tricks which are not simple to execute :P

RE: Card magic 

Oh sorry didn't mean it like that.
I meant: Card tricks take some to none preparation at all =]

Letting a chair float or let an elephant dissapear takes more preparation.
