The BEST Place To Start Performing Magic? 🤔 💭 | Magic Q&A With Craig Petty

[@razabadass]

Belated thank you for another round of answers to questions Craig! Raza =)

[@davebozarth8633]

I remember watching those reviews. LOL. Thanks for the smiles I got remembering those videos. 👍

[@magic-tv]

You are more than welcome, fun times with David Penn

[@anoopbadoreea653]

Great Q&A Craig very helpful suggestions and advice for my question. Thank you very much.🙏

[@shawnmcdowell5477]

Another great Q&A video. I loved your advice about performing for the beginners, the mem deck and coins.

[@jamesotoole8030]

Great show as usual👍 can you talk about the new coin vanish CATCH and what you think of it 👍

[@magic-tv]

I’ll hopefully be reviewing this ASAP

[@alexredshaw2375]

Hi Craig. Really loving the content. You work so hard and we all appreciate it so much. I just had a question I wondered if you could cover. I've been looking recently at taking a dive into some coin magic, and have watched some of your old videos on some potential effects using different kind of gaffed coins. I was wondering, what/where would you say are the best flipper coins available from?

[@tiffanyqueenofmagic1836]

Fabulous Q&A. Love the advice on the mem deck

[@magic-tv]

🙏🙏🙏

[@davidsegal2060]

Hey Craig, I think you mentioned you'd do a thumb tip episode. Love to see that.

[@magic-tv]

I filmed it, I just need to edit it. Look out for it coming soon

[@philk77]

Can you give some advice on the tilt move, particularly with regards to angles please?

[@ryanadams7581]

Hi Craig. Another excellent Q&A as always. What is the best way to start learning a mem deck (i.e. mnemonica) ?

[@philk77]

I am looking to purchase a bowl for the Benson Bowl routine. Can you make any recommendations or advice please?

[@jean-lucgagnier3602]

Yes it is : I'm starting in an hospital for childrens and teenagers..in Montreal soon ! It is in my opinion the best thing ! They don't pay and you can fail and learn how to fix the fails...Open mic night really...the best idea ever man !...I've contact a place just now ! :D

[@BrandonJPearce]

I use a marked deck for my mem deck work. It means I don’t necessarily have to peek at a card, but I practice with a normal deck too.

[@magic-tv]

I know a lot of people that do this Brandon. The problem is my eyes are so bad I can’t work with most marked Decks.

[@BrandonJPearce]

@@magic-tv Yeah, mine are starting to get bad. Plus it’s good if you can pick up any deck and put it into mnemonica, so using a marked deck doesn’t become a habit anyway

[@MagicAvi]

Excellent Q n A. One of the ways I practice is by taking any new tricks or routines and testing them out on new people in the real world. What I do is I go to the mall and randomly perform new tricks or effects and see whether they suit my repertoire. At the same time I also test if the trick is very effective in a real world situation. Also to reward myself for the performances I shoot them and if the reactions of the footage is very good I post them on my KZbin channel. Thanks Craig for this!

[@philk77]

Please can you recommend some in the hands colour changing deck routines that do not use gimmicked decks. Routines using 1 - 2 different colour back cards added to the deck would be my preference.

[@John-hn5vc]

Great Q&A. Firstly to answer your question from last week. I don't have any tattoos personally. My question for this week is what would you say is the most rewarding part of being a magician?

[@philk77]

How do Richard Young's changing cards compare to Modern flap card by magic soul?

[@TB-Magic]

Hi Craig, got my first gig at a house party in July apparently there's going to be 200 people and I'm bricking it, not so much worried about performing the tricks but more so about going up to people and interrupting them and introducing myself, any advice would be much appreciated, not sure if you have done a video on this before, Many thanks

[@MichaelLawrenceMagic]

How was the gig?

[@georgeadcock2347]

Craig What do you think are the best 3 illusions to use as closers??

[@magic-tv]

Great question. I’ll answer this next week

[@philk77]

What are your thoughts on Punched by Lewis Tranter?

[@razabadass]

Point 2: Someone to interview Craig Petty for Magic TV! Fingers crossed! Raza =)

[@foodmagic1756]

I know this question is out of topic .. If foreign magician wants to migrate to US how we can find a restaurant that we can continue our field of expertise in magic? is it possible? Looking for the restaurant magic gig opportunity?

[@philk77]

What are your thoughts on Charge Card by Ace Magic?

[@MCGamemaster90]

Congratulations on 6,000 subs! My question for you Craig is gonna sound a bit odd. But how important do you think a magician's style is? What I mean by that is the specific style of attire they wear. Take you for example, I notice you always rock the checkered shirt look. Would you say it's important for a magician to present themselves in style to help with their character?

[@mattym4451]

So I watched that iFloat trick you told me about and now my phone is at the bottom of Lake Big Bear. I don't know what I did wrong 😢

[@nessie_roswell]

Not really a question for the q and a, but would it be possible to try a talk magic with jamie daws 🙌🙌

[@philk77]

Any chance of a Michael Ammar or Richard Sanders interview?

[@BrandonJPearce]

You actually don’t need a playing card generator or number generator if you have an iPhone. If you have an iPhone, you can ask Siri to name a playing card. She can also name a random number 1-52 (or any number range) and she can flip a coin.

[@magic-tv]

I did not know that Siri could randomly generate a card for you. That is a game changer. Thanks for letting me know

[@BrandonJPearce]

@@magic-tv No problem!

[@philk77]

If you worked as an officer in a prison and wanted to perform tricks for the prisoners (baring in mind restrictions on certain things you could bring in to prisons such as mobile phones) what would be your top 3 tricks to perform?

[@TrackHustlersENT]

When I was in jail I did recapped by Greg wilson a lot. Card tricks were harder bc the cards were so shitty. But card to some random, impossible place always works great

[@otakudibyan24]

What is your GoTo Mentalism routine that does not requires a deck of playing cards?

[@petdetect]

Will you make a 'How to create a decent* magic download.'? (* Let's not set the bar too high. If we can come from [insert Magic Rant language here] downloads to decent downloads, it will be a hughe improvement allready)

[@razabadass]

Point 1: spa break for the ladies who work for Craig Petty! Raza =)

[@razabadass]

Point 3: For me to get to have the chance to be the first ever advance sign up to the Netrix project! Raza =)

[@mr.harmon2745]

Great Q&A again 👏. Yes Ifloat and that drink magic DVD were so bad and l remember both reviews very clearly. Here's a question: 1. Out of all the talk magics you have done what has been your favourite so far?

[@razabadass]

Point 4: I'm trying to give the oppositve of a hate comment but doing a love comment doesn't resonate with me because I'm not LGBT and you've got a soulmate. So I'm trying to give a comment of support here Craig! Raza =)

[@themagicofjoeferrantibosto6476]

great advice...you will never get "good" performing for a mirror. You will be rewarded by real world reactions from lay people. You've given plenty of good ideas of how to get performing. I hope everyone listens. (Just do it!)

[@victorcavalcante2447]

Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. John 14:6 Repent from your sins.

[@magic-tv]

Ok

[@brentea65]

When is Jesus bringing out his loaves and fishes DVD? Great trick..
