Card Magic I have been studying magic since the August of 2003. I learned it all from videos ordered from ellusionist.com. Within the first school year, I performed at two dinner parties that my school hosted. Both went well. For my eighth grade project, I went out and performed as a volunteer at a retirement home once and the Ronald McDonald House twice. I just got my first paying job. I'll be performing at Finnigan's toy store on August 14th. I am available for hire in the Portland, Oregon region. You can e-mail me at: daniel.pi@juno.com to learn more. What kind of magic do I perform? It is generally known as "close-up magic" performed for small crowds usually no more than ten people. I use mainly cards but I hope to expand to coins soon. My best environment are dinner parties, where I go around from table to table doing magic for a few minutes for each table. I don't have a vast repertoire, but enough to keep me going for 30 minutes or so with one group without repeating tricks. I learned all my magic from ellusionist.com. It is extremely difficult to learn from books and videos are an excellent alternative. I bought most of their videos and learned a lot from them. Ellusionist.com is a great site for beginners and intermediate magicians, but not for experts. You need absolutely no experience to learn from ellusionist. I think their best video for beginners is their Street Magic Package (SMP). It is always a good idea to learn from as many sources as possible. I recommend Jay Sankeys Revolutionary Coin Magic for intermediate to advanced coin magic. |
