Your Learning Path

What are your objectives? Are you interested in Stage Magic, Close Up Magic, both? If for example; your only interest is the Slydini’s Linking Rings then the information in that e-book will enable you to perform that routine (assuming you practice) and there is no point in your purchasing any other e-books from me.

If your interest is in the Paper Balls in the Box, then as with the Linking Ring Routine, there is no point in acquiring any of my other e-books.

If your goal is to perform Slydini’s Close Up Magic as he did then I recommend: The Master of Misdirection. The fundamentals are covered and the goal is to enable you to perform all of Slydini’s Close Up Routines, as you learn how to apply those fundamentals.

Further, within that e-book, The Master of Misdirection I suggest you begin with The Coins Through The Table because that routine embodies the way Slydini performs Close Up Magic, more over, given that all you need to perform the routine is seven coins, a table and chair, you will have the opportunity to perform for people.

It is one thing to perform before a mirror in your bedroom or play to a camera. It is quite another thing to perform for people. Yes; you must begin with technique, and yes you should check your mechanics with a mirror or a camera if possible but at some point, if you are truly going to become a Close Up Magician you must perform for people. Moreover you must manage the interaction; between yourself, your impromptu assistant, and your audience at large.

When you perform things will go wrong at times. These mistakes are valuable lessons you can benefit from, learn from, in real time, if you are performing for people. As part of my training, I’d do a routine Slydini and I were working on. I had to tell him what happened, what I felt, what people said, what they saw, what I thought they saw, their reactions. This is a vital part of your training. You begin with ‘bite size’ pieces of a routine, and gradually as you gain experience and confidence, build it into the complete presentation. This is a marathon not a sprit. If speed is your objective there are many quick, simple, easy to acquire magic tricks available to you. This Magic is not for you. If you are fascinated about the relationship between the Close Up Magician and his Impromptu Assistant, if you are interested in learning a unique system of accomplishing Classic Close Up Magic, in the ‘Slydini Manner’ then you should consider my e-books
