How to Stand Out as a Magician

by Merchant of Magic Leave a Comment

Stand out as a MagicianHere’s a question from one of our readers, James:

“What is that ONE magic trick that will make me stand out?”

 

I’m so glad I’ve got a chance to address this question. I see it a lot; and the answer might either be a really frustrating one or enlightening, depending on how you act on it.
You can either take this advice and create an incredible, showstopping trick that WILL make you stand out, or you might choose to abandon it in favor of the easier answers out there.

There is no ONE trick that will make you stand out; but there can be YOUR one trick that will.

What do I mean by this?
Even the best effects, if they don’t work with your persona and style as a magician, will be weaker than basic effects that DO follow suit with who you are.

Imagine if Derren Brown were to perform a Dynamo effect. Sure, it wouldn’t be bad, but it wouldn’t be anything memorable either. That’s because it doesn’t fit who Derren Brown is as a magician.

So, the answer is that the ONE trick that will make you stand out is ENTIRELY dependent on who you are as a magician, and ultimately, as a person.

To illustrate my point, let’s compare this to a similar question I often see in the world of fashion.

“What is the ONE outfit that will really make me stand out?”

Again, it’s obvious that this question is completely subjective. There’s no clear answer. The answer will vary massively depending on a bunch of factors; your height, weight, gender, build, etc. There is no ‘one size fits all’ solution.

It’s exactly the same in magic. Although the factors that are perhaps slightly less visible, they need to be taken into account nonetheless.

So, how do you decide which trick is the No.1 trick for YOU?

Here’s five simple steps that should help you narrow it down…

 

Step 1: Evaluate Your Audience; Who Are You Trying To Impress?

You mention in your initial question that you want to ‘stand out’.

Great. But you first need to really zone in on WHO you want to stand out to; the tricks that impress one demographic might fall flat in front of another.

For example, some tricks that might work like a charm at children’s parties would not fool an adult audience, and vice versa, some of the tricks performed for adults would go straight over the heads of any children watching them.

As a general rule:

– Simple and visual tricks will work well for younger audiences as they require less concentration and hold attention better.

– For story or narrative based routines, make sure the audience is mature enough to understand the messages and values you are trying to convey through the story. Consider tailoring the narrative to make it more relevant to the respective audience.

So when preparing to select a knockout trick, you first need to consider your audience. What’s more, your choice of audience will undoubtedly affect the presentation of the effect too.

Once you have your audience in mind and understand what you need to deliver based on their needs, let’s move on to the next step.

 

Stand Out as a magician with your personaStep 2: Persona and Entertainment Level

This is a really key step.

In order to create a trick that will make you stand out, YOU as a person need to stand out. It’s not enough to simply rehash a presentation of the trick that you’ve seen before. You need to find your own spin on it.

In fact, I would argue that the best magicians are remembered for their presentation MORE so than the trick performed.

A great example of this is Penn and Teller; the comedic magic duo. A lot of the tricks they perform are fairly common in the magic world (such as the Cups and Balls) but they have such unique takes on the presentation that their performances are highly entertaining and definitely ‘stand out’ for their audience. This suggests that the real key to standing out is to have a memorable persona rather than just relying on a memorable trick.

How do you create a persona?
I’ve found that the best way to develop a persona is by consistent performing over time. The more you perform, the more your own style will emerge. Initially you’ll be tempted to stick to the same formulaic approaches to effects, but once you gain more confidence, your persona will naturally start to shine through.

Now I’m not encouraging you to just wing it and hope that sooner or later something will stick. Every time you perform, analyze your performance afterwards. Which bits worked? Which bits didn’t?

The key thing is to try to make sure you come away from it having learnt something new. A certain one liner might have landed really well, whilst a new phase to your routine didn’t. As you make a note of these things and edit your performances accordingly, you should see a persona starting to emerge.

 

Step 3: Mastery

Now that you have an idea of a trick and the presentation you are going to use in your head, you need to practice it until you can do it in your sleep.

Why?

Well, the more you need to concentrate on your getting the sleights right during the trick, the less you can perform. As a result, the weaker your grasp of the sleights, the weaker the entertainment level.

So, you need to ensure that you are COMPLETELY comfortable with every sleight required to the point where you can perform the routine blindfolded or distracted.

Basically, you want to be able to place all your focus on the presentation and selling of your persona; and one of the best ways to do this is by gaining a really strong muscle memory of the sleights.

By now, you should have a trick, persona, and a strong grasp of the sleights. What next?

 

Step 4: You Have The Final Say

Even if you think you’ve managed to tick all the boxes with a trick, the final decision should be made on the basis of how it feels to you personally; whether or not you choose a trick might just come down to the fact that it does or doesn’t FEEL right.

And that’s how it should be.

You might have a great trick that is perfect for your audience, fits your persona, and you can do easily. But if it doesn’t sit well with you, it’s still not going to be that knockout trick you want it to be. At the end of the day, you need to perform what you feel most comfortable and happy performing.

Your attitude will rub off onto your audience!

 

Step 5: Trial and Error

Once you’ve selected a trick that fulfills all the requirements we’ve gone through, and you’re happy to perform it, the next step is to just get out there and try it!

Don’t be dissuaded if it isn’t a home run first time round. It’s unlikely that it will be!

Professional magicians might perform and refine their material for years before they settle on a few firm ‘signature’ tricks. You might do it sooner, or you might take longer. The important thing is to keep on evolving and improving! Eventually you’ll find a few solid tricks that you can really ‘own’ and will definitely make you stand out!

I hope that helped you gain an understanding into how you can stand out as a magician! The secret is not to rely on the tricks themselves, but your persona as an individual.

I do appreciate that this might not have been the answer you were looking for, and if you have absolutely NO idea where to start, here’s a few solid tricks that you can’t go wrong with to set you on the right path…

The Invisible Deck
A mind reading miracle using a single deck of cards.

Cube 3
Possibly the most visual magic trick you’ve ever seen. Solve a mixed up Rubik’s Cube, INSTANTLY!

Cardtoon
A captivating card trick that uses a stickman to read the mind of your audience.

The Complete Guide To Buying A Magic Wallet

by Merchant of Magic 1 Comment

Buying a Magic WalletWe recently received this question from one of our readers, Mike:

“There are so many different magic wallets on the market, that I don’t know which one to buy.

Actually, I mostly like the small wallets cause they look minimalist. I want to buy a wallet, which is easy to load with, for example a signed card

(card to wallet trick).

So the question is:

  • Which small wallet has a good quality and is very easy to load?
  • Is it better to buy a wallet that can only load cards or is there also a good ‘card to wallet’ with which you can do other beautiful magic like:
    • Peaking
    • Switching
    • Forcing?

I hope to hear from you. Thanks you very much.”

Great question. Magic wallets have always been a fascinating topic for me; the idea that you can take an ordinary everyday object that looks completely nondescript and use it for the most incredible magic tricks is just amazing.

However at the same time, I appreciate that magic wallets aren’t cheap. Especially if you’re looking for quality.

What’s more, there’s A LOT of them. There’s almost too much choice when it comes to magic wallets; how do you even know where to start?

Today I’m going to give you the complete lowdown on purchasing your first magic wallet, depending on which effect you’re looking for.

Best Magic Wallet for Card to Wallet (Palming)

The classic versions of the card to wallet have always required palming, and it’s a solid choice if you know how to do it.

Plus Magic WalletThere are a lot of great wallets that accomplish the card to wallet effect using palming, but a tried and tested choice would be the Jerry O’Connell Plus Wallet.

This wallet isn’t cheap but it is often hailed as the ‘best magic wallet of all time’. It goes one step further than the majority of magic wallets out there in that not only does it enable you to load a signed card into your wallet, the signed card can appear within a sealed envelope inside the wallet.

This wallet also allows you to do more than card tricks as works with objects like signed coins or rings.

This leather wallet is really high quality and whilst the price point is higher than some of the others, anyone you ask will assure you that the wallet repays you time and time again within your performances.

Within your question, you mentioned that you wanted a smaller wallet that would easily pass as an everyday wallet. Luckily for you, the Jerry O’Connell Plus wallet comes in two sizes; you can buy either a Small or Large. The dimensions of the Small wallet are 150mm x 98mm and the Large sizes at 170mm x 100mm.

Real Mans Magic WalletReal Mans Magic WalletIf you don’t have the funds for this wallet at the moment, you might want to consider the Real Man’s Wallet. It fits your requirements of being small and minimalist and the effect is great, but the price is much lower. I know a lot of magicians who vouch for this wallet and also use it for everyday use, so it’s another safe bet.

Best Magic Wallet for Card to Wallet (No Palming)

Palming is an absolutely vital skill for magicians, so I wouldn’t advise you to shy away from learning it. However, I understand that sometimes it’s just easier based on certain situations to have an option that doesn’t require such technical sleights.

Fortunately, there are plenty of magic wallets that don’t require palming. One of the most popular of these is the Mullica Wallet.

The Mullica Wallet lets you perform an incredible card to wallet effect with zero palming required. However, that doesn’t mean it’s sleight free! There are a few sleights you’ll want to know to get this trick working, but palming is not one of them.

You can check out this wallet here. In terms of pricing, it’s slightly cheaper than the previous wallet but not by much.

If you want to work up to a palming dependent method but start out easier, you could try the BMK Wallet. This wallet combines the methods used by three performers, Balducci, Mullica, and Kaps. There’s both a palm method and non palm method available.

However, some magicians have noted that the BKM wallet is perhaps a little too big for them; in that case you might be better using the Jerry O’Connell Plus Wallet I mentioned earlier as it also combines both palming and non palming methods.

Best Magic Wallet For Peeking

Wallets can also be used to great effect as a peeking device, and there’s plenty of products that offer this function.

My favorites are the Stealth Assassin Wallet and the Telethought wallet. Both of these are the perfect wallets for mentalists, but one is considerably cheaper than the other.

Telethought Magic WalletThe Telethought Wallet

Imagine this: The magician presents an ordinary blank card and invites a spectator to write down ANY word they want on it. Once they’ve done so, the card is inserted face down into a wallet.

Despite the wallet staying in full view the whole time, the magician is able to reveal the exact word recorded on the card. This effect isn’t limited to words; the spectator could draw a picture or even write down a phone number!

Without revealing the method, it’s safe to say that this wallet utilizes an ingenious gimmick that is completely invisible to the spectator.

Like the others mentioned, this wallet is available in both Large and Small sizes (although the Small is considerably cheaper).

The Stealth Assassin Wallet.

The Stealth Assassin Wallet is a classy looking ‘Gentlemen’ style wallet that fits your hip pocket. It might not look quite like your everyday wallet but the effects that you are able to perform using it makes the unusual look definitely worth it.

In terms of size, whilst not as small as the other wallets mentioned, it isn’t overly large and can definitely pass as an everyday wallet.

This wallet uses a couple of different methods, including the wildly popular ‘Sight Unseen’ working, only within a wallet this time.

The Stealth Assassin Wallet is slightly harder to find online than the Telethought wallet but it is available at Magic Shop here.

Best Magic Wallet For Switching

Switch wallets make a great addition to packet trick routines; especially when you don’t want the audience examining your cards.

You perform your routine, and once you finish you pack the cards back into your wallet. Suddenly (but inevitably) a member of the audience starts clamoring to see the cards. With a sigh, you remove the cards from the wallet and let the audience inspect them for as long as they want. There’s nothing to see; you’ve already switched out the cards.

This one was a bit harder to come up with ideas for.

Why?

Well, the majority of magic wallets are designed primarily for either peeking or loading an object. Switching seems to be less of a priority and as a result there are fewer options on the market for it. However, there are a few solid products that are available to you; here’s my favorite.

Shogun Wallet

The Shogun Wallet is incredibly simple yet fooling. The wallet looks like a completely ordinary leather wallet but in fact enables you to switch out cards, packets, bank notes and pretty much anything you can imagine. The product description of this wallet describes it as ‘devious, yet innocent’, and I’d be inclined to agree.

All In One Wallets?

If you’ve been reading through this and feeling like you wanted a wallet that performed ALL of the features we’ve been discussing; card to wallet, peeking and switching, you might want to consider buying an all in one wallet.

Rather than spending hundreds on each individual wallet, you can buy a wallet like the Infinity Wallet  that has a whole bunch of features packed into one wallet.

The Infinity Wallet is a multipurpose wallet that includes:

– Card to Wallet

– Peeking system

– Switching

– Multiple Outs

– Index System

That’s a lot of super useful features; in fact, this wallet alone would give you enough tricks for a full stage routine! I would definitely recommend this wallet for someone who wants a magic wallet but isn’t sure which type would suit them best.

You can have a play around with this one and get a feel for the different utilities; once you’ve spent a while performing with it you could go on to buy another wallet that specializes in the function you enjoy most.

For example, if you find whilst using this wallet that the card to wallet trick works wonders for you, you can come back and buy a specialist wallet for that very effect, such as the Jerry O’Connell one I mentioned earlier.

Finally, the original question also asked about forcing. Whilst there is not as many options for this, I did manage to find a wallet that looks like it could fit what you’re looking for in that regard here.

I hope you found this post useful in making your mind up on which wallet is best for you! Please feel free to follow up with any additional questions you have.

Magicians Subtleties – How To Convince Your Audience

by Merchant of Magic 3 Comments

Magicians SubtletiesToday I want to talk about a topic that has been on my mind for a while now.

It’s a technique of magic that I’ve found tends to be used instinctively by a lot of people who don’t actually realize they’re doing it. This technique is the perfect way to seriously strengthen your effects without adding or removing any aspects of the trick itself.

What am I talking about?

Subtleties. Or as others refer to them, convincers.

What are subtleties?

I first ran across the idea of magicians subtleties whilst studying books on Magic Theory, and it was one of those ‘lightbulb’ moments for me.

As far as I understand the term, a subtlety is an offbeat moment within your magic where you intentionally do something that appears accidental or unintentional, for the purpose of increasing the strength of the effect.

I know. Sounds confusing, right?

But don’t worry. Subtleties are far easier to demonstrate then they are to explain.

Let’s imagine you’re performing a card trick in which you intend to make the spectator’s card appear in some crazy location; your wallet, perhaps.

You ask the spectator to choose a card, and show it to everyone; yourself included. Let’s imagine it is the Queen of Spades. You take the card back off him and perform a Top Change.

You hold the switched card in your hand, and as you are about to push it in to the middle of the deck, say something along these lines:

‘Now I’m going to place your card, the…’

You act for a moment as if you can’t recall the card, and lift it up to take a glimpse at it.

‘…Queen of Spades, into the deck.’

What was the point of that?

Well, picture the situation from the point of view of the spectator. The little act of ‘forgetting’ their card and taking a glimpse at the switched card to recall it has just solidified in their mind, the idea that the switched card really IS their original card. From here, the routine is made much stronger as the spectator will swear they SAW you place their exact card into the middle of the deck.

This move takes mere seconds to do, but can seriously improve the overall impact of the trick.

This is a subtlety. A seemingly insignificant act you put on to convince the audience that you really are doing what you say you are (even though you NEVER are!). These subtleties are almost always presented as unintentional and improvised, when in fact they are the result of meticulous planning.

So, now that you have an idea of what subtleties are, how do you go about incorporating them into your magic?

How To Incorporate Subtleties Into Your Routines

Well, if you’re anything like me, you’re probably already using subtleties without realizing it! For example, for any of the mentalists out there, how many of you will intentionally make small mistakes in your predictions in an attempt to convince the audience that the whole thing is real?

This is just another example of a subtlety, or convincer, in action.

For those of you who aren’t already using subtleties, or want a better grip on how to add them to your routines, here’s a four-step technique that has worked well for me. I’ll use this as an opportunity to develop a new subtlety for one of my own magic routines so you can see how it works in real time.

Step 1: Identify Weak Spots Within Your Routines

Within most magic routines we perform, there are one or two ‘weak spots’ that we tend to either rush over, or hope that the audience won’t draw attention to. Most of the time, we are afraid of them noticing that something isn’t quite right, or perhaps asking one too many questions about an aspect of the effect.

A great way of identifying these weak spots is to listen to the questions a spectator will ask you once you’ve finished the trick. For example, if you’ve just done a Book Test, they might say ‘But that wouldn’t have worked if I had picked a different page, right?’

In this case, this question indicates that the weak spot within your Book Test is the moment at which the spectator picks their page.

If you’ve just done an Ambitious Card Routine and the spectator says ‘that was great! But I bet you couldn’t have done it with MY deck of cards’ that suggests the weak spot within your ACR is the way in which you try to convince your audience that the deck is a normal one.

Whilst I was brainstorming ‘weak spots’ within my own magic, I realized that the very beginning of any trick I do with a Rubik’s Cube tends to be an uncomfortable moment for me.

For example, one of my favorite pieces of magic is displaying a mixed Cube, placing it inside a bag, and letting the spectator ‘solve’ it with their mind. Now, this trick requires a certain amount of ‘preparation’ work and I need the Cube to be in a very specific pattern.

However, as soon as I tell people I’m going to do magic with a Rubik’s Cube, the first thing they say is ‘Can I mix it up?’

I’ve had a lot of trouble getting around this question in the past so I could do with creating magicians subtleties that should stop this problem.

Step 2: Identify What This Weak Spot Is Communicating To Your Audience

The second step is to step backward and try to see the weak spot from the point of view of your audience. What is it that you are communicating to them through this weak spot? The questions they ask are a reflection of what you are communicating.

In the case of the Book Test we mentioned, it appears you are communicating that the page they land on is important to you. This creates a suspicion that they don’t have complete control over the page they choose, which weakens the effect.

In the case of the Ambitious Card Routine we discussed, it appears you are communicating that the deck is in some way special or gimmicked. This weakens the effect as they believe you are in some way ‘cheating’.

And in the case of my own Cube routine, it appears I am communicating that the pattern of the Cube is important to me; and maybe even set up. Which is not what I want them to think! I want them to think that the Cube is completely and randomly mixed.

In all of these examples, these are things we DON’T want the audience to imagine.

Step 3: Figure Out How To Communicate The OPPOSITE

In the above cases, we have identified what our weak spots are communicating. The next step is to reverse engineer it and work out how to somehow communicate the opposite through our performance. This is where the subtleties come in.

In the case of the Book Test, we are creating the suspicion that the page the spectator lands on is not entirely their choice. We need to find a way to communicate the opposite; that the page they land on is completely insignificant to us.

This is the perfect place to add magicians subtleties to your routine. Subtleties do an amazing job of communicating something to the audience without the magician saying a word.

In this case, the subtlety could be as simple as reading the page number wrong, or remembering the page number incorrectly later on in the trick.

If the magician says ‘So, let’s recap. You chose a random word from page 27…’ and the spectator corrects them by pointing out they actually chose page 26, it communicates to the audience that the page isn’t important to them and that the trick could be accomplished on any page.

In the case of the Ambitious Card Routine, the subtlety could be as simple as asking the audience if any of them have a deck of cards. By asking them to borrow a deck, it creates the impression that the deck you use isn’t important to you.

This is one of the easiest magicians subtleties to incorporate into your routine; 99% of the time no one in the audience is going to have a pack of cards. It won’t impact the effect in ANY way. But what it does do is communicate to the audience that you could just as easily perform your tricks with a borrowed deck.

On the off chance that someone does hand you a deck, you could simply move into a different trick that can be done impromptu.

For my own Cube routine, I was able to develop a subtlety that communicates that the pattern of the Cube isn’t important to me.

I decided to go with the following presentation.

As I reach into my bag and pull out the Cube, I say ‘I’m going to show you a great magic trick you can do with ANY solved Rubik’s Cube’.

As it comes out of the bag mixed up, I act surprised. ‘I could have sworn this was already solved! Oh well, I’ll see if there’s anything else I can do with this.’ I then go into the trick as normal.

This extra second or so should add a great element to the trick; that it is being improvised, and it isn’t quite what I was planning on doing. For this reason, if done right, no one will even think to ask to mix up the Cube when I pull it out; as far as they’re concerned, it already is!

Step 4: Refine

The next step is simply to try out the magicians subtleties you’ve developed during your performances. Try to get a gauge on what is working and what isn’t. From here, it’s just a process of slowly developing and refining the subtleties over time.

I think you’ll be surprised at just how powerful this can be for your magic. Subtleties are a great way of selling your magic without acting overly dramatic or adding anything to your routine; they’re simply little moments on the offbeat that really make your magic real to the audience.

I hope this four step process made sense to you! If you have any questions, feel free to leave them in the comment section.
