How To Do Street Magic

___________________

INTRODUCTION - The introduction to this amazing dvd is brilliant. It was the first ever video that i got. In the intro it self Brad is already teaching you tips on how to amaze your audience. He tells you that you have to believe that what you are doing is real and then everyone else will too. Then Brad and i believe Beth (I am sorry if i am incorrect) Tell you how to learn the tricks properly so that you don't mess up, so that when you step out onto the street you know EXACTLY what you are doing.

________________________________________ __________________________________

BURNED - Burned is a great trick. it is when you ask someone to take a card and then you tell them that sometimes you can get some spirit writing to appear on your body. You then proceed to try this out. You slowly rub ashes onto your arm, after a while it becomes clear; and the spectators card has appeared onto your arm.

Brad goes into good teaching about this and tells you the equipment that you need to perform this effect. He also tells you the way to make the correct card appear onto your arm!

________________________________________ __________________________________

GLASS STINGER - You sit down at a table, you take a coin, a glass and a napkin. You tell the audience what you are going to do. You are going to make the coin disappear. You place the coin onto the table and place the glass over the coin. You then wrap a napkin around the glass because you don't want to show your audience how this amazing feat is accomplished. After a few tries you cant get the coin to disappear. So instead you say lets try and different trick. Then BOOM the glass MELTS right through the table.

Brad tells you the right way to do this so absolutely no one will guess what you are about to do. He also gets the camera man to get the correct angle for you to learn this trick. He then teaches you the correct routine on how to present this effect.

________________________________________ __________________________________

SICK ACES - A brilliant trick that this time gets the spectator to do ALL the magic! You take the cards and just give them a quick shuffle. You then hand the spectator the cards and he/she because the deck into four more or less equal places. The spectator then mixes the cards up themselves. Then you make sure the spectator knows that you did not toch the cards and you DID NOT force the spectator to cut in any certain place. Then they agree becuause you didn't! Then you turn over the four cards that THEY THEMSELVES cut to. It happens to be the four most wanted cards in a game of poker... the Four Aces!

Brad tells you the right way to do the trick and gose over it and clearly explians on how this is done so you dont get conffused. He also teaches you the build-up to make this trick to the MAX.

________________________________________ __________________________________

TRACE UNSEEN - A simple to do yet wouderful trick. You take the cards and give them a shuffle. You riffle through the cards and the spectator yells out stop and you stop at where they told you to stop. Then without anything tricky you just close up the deck and give a snap. Then you go through the cards and the card that they just saw has vansihed from the pack. Then you say to people look in your pockets. It is in the SPECTATORS pocket and you went no were near them!

Brad tells you on how to setup the trick and a few locations to make the card appear to make the reactions great. Brad then gose over on how to let them choose a card and he gose over it a few times to make sure that you know what you are doing.

________________________________________ __________________________________

MERGER - Merger is a good trick to do. It is very simple to do. you take a peice of rope or someones shoe lace. You then BORROW a bussines card and tear a hole into the middle of it and place it on the string. You then get the spectator to hold both sides of the lace so there is no way of getting it off. You then cover the lace with a hanckiechif and reach under; then remove your hands and you have the bussines card and theres only the hole in the middle. So how in the world did you get it off the string without tottaly ripping it off?

The teaching on this is great. Brad tells you the ocrrect way to make the card melt through the string withot anyone even being able to think of an explination on how this marvalous trick is done.

________________________________________ __________________________________

TRICK SWITCH - You let the spectator select a card and then you loose it into the deck. You then tell them to make and keep a poker face. you then go through a few cards and lay them down onto the table. One of witch is their card bu you mess up and you think that none of the cards on the table is the correct card. You then tell the spectator to name a number between one and ten. they do so but they are thinking that you tottaly blown it. You go through the number they say, (example

then the 8th card is their card! But they saw their card being put onto the table!

Brad gose over exactly how to do this one he gose over the move that you need to learn to do this trick sussfully. He gose over it loads of times to make sure that you really know on what you are doing so you do not mess up while performing.

________________________________________ __________________________________

VOODOO ZONE - This is possible the best trick in the DVD. You take two cards and fold then into each other. ou then slowly push one card thought the other. While you are doing this the card is turning insideout on itself. You then stop it half way and rip it and show that the card has stoped, half is insideout the other side is outsidein.

Good teaching on this one. Brad tells you the few basic moves that you need to know on how to do this simple yet STUNNING effect.

________________________________________ __________________________________

GO INSIDE SUGAR - You take a signed coin and a packet of suger. You squeeze the two together and the coin gose insdie the sugar packet. Then you open the packet and the SIGNED coin falls out of the sugar packet.

This trick will get you some amazing reactions. Their signed coin went inside a sealed sugar packet. Brad gose through for a few minites on how to do the one basic slight that you need to know in order to do this trick.

________________________________________ __________________________________

GEORGES OLD TRICK - You show you hand and flick your fingers; reach put and produce a coin from thin air.

Brad teaches you two tricks in this section. Brad teaches you on how to produce a coin from thin air. He teaches you the correct angles and how to make it look like you pulled it right out from thin air. After that Brad tells you on how to make the coin vanish; and go straight back into thin air.

________________________________________ __________________________________

CHANCE ZERO - Another good trick that gets the spectator involved in the trtick. You take the cards and give them a quick shuffle. You hand the deck to the spectator face down. Then you say i dont want you to think about it, but just make two piles of black and red. After they have done this they get it right and they have sorted out all of the cards into a pile of red and a pile of black.

Brad gose into a FULL nine minutes on explaining on how to do this trick. Its not because its that hard to do. Its becuase he wants you to make it right and how to get the best reaction form your audience, and how a miricle like this is made possible.

________________________________________ __________________________________

PRINT - You take a few blank cards and show it to be blank on both sides. You then put it through your hands twice with nothing happening. Then on the fourth try the card visibly prints inside YOUR OWN HAND!

This is a great way to had out your bussiness card in any situation. Brad gose into some good detail on how to make the card visble print inside of your hand.

________________________________________ __________________________________

MELTED - You take a piece of string and a ring. You then place the ring onto the string and show that the ring really is hooked onto the peice of string. You then place it inside someones hand and make it MELT right through the piece of string that you BORROWED from somebody.

I believe that this is probably the hardest trick on this DVD. But becuas it is the hardest it has a great explination on how to do it. Brad gose over and over and over on how to acctually metl the ring off the string. He gose over the little things to make this woundeful trick happen insidd the spectators hand!

this is a great video , download it

Hansi · 09-10-2007, 01:07 PM

I don't like this video. For beginners quite interesting, but everything Brad Christian says is:
Buy Ninja, buy Ninja, buy Ninjaaaaa!!!

Dotti · 09-10-2007, 01:25 PM

Crash Course 1 is the best for beginners tho

corduroy82 · 09-18-2007, 01:46 PM

ah, my first real magic dvd. bought this nearly.. 8 months ago. I really liked the tricks when I first saw the dvd. Although, the only thing I ever really did or anyone was the sick aces. Since then, Ive learned to adapt that same principle and change it around, and work it into routines. daryl has similar tricks.

the other stuff is just really bold, and im not sure i could pull them off. Im just more comfortable routining with a deck of cards.

I think Brad is good with taking these tricks and explaining principles about why magic works, and how its more than just knowing secrets. I recommend this dvd, and other *********** ones as well. even though people tend to rag on them a bit.

trinityracinguk · 09-23-2007, 02:57 PM

The trick on this DVD known as Voodoo zone is actually called card warp it was created by a man named roy walton , the cool thing is that he happens to be the owner of the only magic shop in glasgow (where i live and shop for most of my magic stuff)!! , Brad admits that he is terrible for giving credit for some tricks and he sent roy a letter apologising for it and now gives him credit for the effect. i think brads a really cool guy and explains things really well , his passion for magic really shines through

DonVito91 · 09-30-2007, 05:36 AM

i dont like this DVD either.It doesnt really have the mind-blowing effects that im looking for

hunter0741 · 10-02-2007, 09:00 PM

One of my first magic videos. I liked it, its great for people just starting.

TheYellowDart · 10-05-2007, 07:04 PM

I agree, it is good for people just starting.. but since it doesnt use that complicated of sleights, i feel like it is too basic now.

Theorapper · 10-07-2007, 08:01 AM

This is a very good video especially for beginners because it doesn't only contain card magic.

frontcover · 10-08-2007, 10:59 PM

The one advantage that the street magic guys have going for them is that they can take as much time as they want to setup and do a trick. All this setup time is edited out back at the studio, which gives you the impression that the magician is doing the tricks one right after the other.

On the same subject, have you ever seen the video of the Japanese magician who passes a drinking glass through a glass-top table. That's a great effect. I'll try to find the link to the video if anyone is interested.

I agree with Hansi, Ninjas are good. I also liked crash course 2 - ambitious card.

rahulyenigalla · 10-12-2007, 04:01 PM

probobly the best dvd for street magic. or magic to do regularly. as a routine.

candyman · 10-15-2007, 06:13 PM

If your starting magic its alright

but its not as good as they said it was

fknrandom · 10-16-2007, 09:36 AM

This is good stuff to start out with because some of the tricks don't require all that much skill. When it comes to double lifts and other slights, thats when there's way less room for error and a lot more practice is necessary.

Regardless, some of the effects can still be pretty awesome if you present it well.
