The Mystery Behind Magic37: The Business Behind Producing a Show - David FungPutting a show together has definitely changed over the last year beforehand performers would need to go to theatres, book a time, discuss prices, discuss how the theatre was going to get paid, etc. But for the past year or so it's changed massively; now we just cleaned, maybe painted, our spare rooms, or an existing room - set up our equipment, made a cool poster, and we had a show!

The Mystery Behind Magic29: Is Creativity a Muscle? - Noel QualterThere is suddenly a new genre in magic, what do you do about it? Do you, ignore it and complain how it isn't as good as another one? Completely disregard it? Or start working on it, so you become the best at it?

It is important to find our characters in magic, so we don't copy another magician, but also so we can have the most fun performing as we are performing then as someone we want, and Chris has found that. Some mentalist 'watches' body language to 'read' a spectator, but Chris uses slightly un-orthodox methods... https://magiccox...2021-03-0953 min

A lot of the time it is the second one, it isn't necessarily a bad thing, but social media is being used more and more for advertising, and I think you should too, let me explain.

See, as magicians, we are the product. We need...2021-02-1753 min

The Mystery Behind Magic20: How to Create and Develop Your Character - Kevin DoigWhen you're putting together a routine or preparing for a show, what do you think about and practice? Well, it most likely is not your character. Most of us are happy and comfortable with the characters we perform when we are performing magic. We have probably had the same character nearly since we have started performing magic, and we rarely change it, rarely think about. But it's really important, it pretty much dictates what we can and can't perform (most of the time.) So what if we pushed our selves, and started...2021-02-1453 min
