If you are a newbie magician and you want to improve your magic
tricks, follow these tips and you are guaranteed to perform
magic tricks that will amaze your audience.
Be Natural
The secret in having a great sleight of hand is your
naturalness. There should be no hand wagging, no hand waving,
jerky or quick motions. You should work naturally, deliberately,
and slowly. If you master this, balls, coins, rings, cards, and
coins will begin reappearing and disappearing at the tips of
your fingers. Watching your angles
You should be aware of your angles. Angles refer to the sleight
lines between the item that you have just palmed off and the eye
of your spectators. If you do not have the right angles, the
audience could take a glimpse or see the object in your hand and
your trick will be caught.
Practice your palming skills wherever you go The most necessary
skill of a man with a great sleight of hand is the ability or
skill of palming an object that goes undetected. You could
perfect this after some time of practicing palming small objects
like coins in your everyday normal routine. You could palm a
small object or item in both of your hands or either while
writing, eating, watching TV, walking around, or doing other
activities. If you practice care about the angles, no one would
notice what you are doing, and after some time, what you are now
doing self-consciously would later become almost natural to you.
From then on, you could be able to palm objects or items more
confidently, boldly, and successful each time.
Master your presentation
Practice your presentation. A small trick that is well presented
could work wonders even without the most sophisticated of
techniques since the audience would most likely relate to your
trick or understand it.
What good is a magician if nobody understands or enjoys his or
her tricks? The presentations therefore should be
straightforward, simple, and understood easily so that your
viewers or watchers could understand and enjoy the complete
meaning of what you have been saying and doing.
Do not replicate a trick
Do not repeat the same trick for the same viewers or watchers.
That is one of the basic rules in doing magic. When you repeat a
trick, your audience would immediately know what you are going
to do next. What may have been a miracle for you when you did
your trick for the first time may not be quite satisfying or
dazzling the next time around.
