Tips On How To Do Magic Tricks
I’m often asked what the best way to start to learn how to do magic tricks would be, and although it can be different from person to person, I’m sure I can provide a few hints and tips that may help and probably more importantly, - what you should try to avoid.
I think the most important thing to do when just starting to dabble in magic, is to learn a few simple magic tricks that can be done without having to use any gimmicked apparatus or special props. I mean magic tricks that can be done using ordinary items that can often be borrowed and handed out for examination after the miracle has been performed.
This can be really stunning for any lay audience, as they are so used to seeing magic tricks and illusions on TV and video, where fancy and often expensive props are used and also where camera tricks and clever editing are used to create a more exciting TV program.
I’m sure you’re well aware that most magic can be purchased from reputable magic suppliers and you’ll also know that the cost of most magical secrets is usually very high. (Often very expensive)
So how can you possibly learn how to do magic tricks without spending a great deal of money for these secrets and when most top magicians will just not explain how their magic tricks are done.
Most magicians first started to do magic tricks after receiving a small magic set, but unfortunately the typical magic set is usually made up totally of ’self-working’ tricks, with trick cards and boxes etc., none of which can be examined by the audience after the trick has been shown, and so there’s the problem and worry of having to hide your tricks as soon as you finish each one.
For a beginner this creates a problem, especially among friends and classmates, who are always desperate to examine the magical props and try to find out ‘how it’s done’.
So that’s why I suggest learning some simple magic tricks with ordinary everyday objects that can often be borrowed and then freely handed out for examination. Ordinary everyday items like coins, pens, banknotes and such like, appear to be beyond any suspicion of trickery and doing magical things with them is so very effective and yet often very simple.
This really adds tremendously to the magic and of course, as most professional magicians will tell you, - ‘the simple effects are the ones that are usually the most stunning to the audience and in my experience, get the best response’.
Some of the best items to use to amaze your friends are coins, banknotes, pens, rope etc. and there are a few basic skills that are so easy to learn and will very quickly allow you to vanish and exchange coins and several small objects.
One of these basic skills is known as the ‘French Drop’, which is what all magicians use to vanish and exchange small items like coins, keys, balls etc. So I would certainly recommend that one of the first things that you should practice, as a beginner, is just that (French Drop) and coupled with the simple Palming of a coin.
This will allow you to carry out a nice magic routine with borrowed coins etc. and will leave you ‘Clean’ at the end of the effects. It will also get you out of difficulty when you are expected to do something magical.
This is magic that requires no props or fancy apparatus and there are now many great magical Websites where you can learn hosts of magic tricks for free.
In fact I set up my own Magic Website with the soul purpose of passing on my experience and knowledge to help all those eager would-be magicians to enjoy the sheer joy and pleasure of performing magic and entertaining others.
So in today’s digital Internet world you can get some amazing and exciting magic for free if you just search for and visit the right magic websites. - So go ahead and look around and welcome to the wonderful world of magic.

Learn Magic Card Tricks with Easy Magic Instructions
You can learn magic card tricks in order to have your friends or family spellbound by your skills. There are many magic tricks that depend on following a certain process or method. It is important for the magic student to learn about these different methods of magic card tricks in order to become a master.
One of the methods being used in magic card tricks is by employing a trick deck. A trick deck refers to a special deck of playing cards that has been altered in some ways in order to allow the magician or performer to do certain tricks with them. Trick decks are usually used when sleight of hand might be difficult or impractical to use for certain tricks.
There are various types of trick decks that magicians use to do special magic tricks. One of them is the stripper deck. The stripper deck is a type of trick deck that allows a magician or performer to easily control the location of a card or group of cards even after being shuffled by a spectator. The stripper deck always allows the performer to cut to the selected card or put a selected card at the top or bottom of the deck with just a few shuffles.
The Svengali deck is another type of trick deck used by magicians to perform certain magic card tricks. The Svengali deck usually allows certain tricks to be performed with almost no skill required. Most tricks done with the Svengali deck are known to be self-working. This trick deck can be riffled or even shuffled to give the illusion that it is quite an ordinary deck of cards. But using the Svengali deck can allow the performer to have a chosen card appear at any part of the deck.
Force decks are the kind of trick decks used to force a spectator to choose a particular card. One of the most common of force decks is one that contains identical cards. This way, the magician already knows what the spectator is choosing even with the illusion of letting the spectator choose from a number of different cards. But the performer is always careful not to let the audience see that faces of the identical cards of the force deck in order for the trick to be successful.
A marked deck is another specially made trick deck that is characterized by certain marks that only the performer knows about. The marked deck may look just like an ordinary card to the spectator, but such cards usually have subtle marks on the decorative side of the deck of cards that tell the performer about what each one is. The marks can either be placed at certain positions to indicate the number of the card and at a certain color to indicate the suit.
There are other trick decks that performers make use of to do their amazing magic card tricks. Some of these trick cards require some practice and a bit of knowledge to use correctly and to do tricks quite successfully. Learning always is important even in doing magic tricks.
