* You have very good
* You are comfortable performing
* Change your personality stage.

Make a list of all effects you know that meet the above criteria, and each side effect, taking notes on the amount of time required for this purpose. For the determination of the time, get a group of friends and / or family and one of them designated as timekeeper. Go through your entire routine exactly would a show for and note the time needed to complete the turn. Never, never try you time. This will only end in disaster if the plan is fully inaccurate and unreliable.

Perhaps the two most important effects are to choose which you use to start and finish the show. You want the attention of the public to attract one time, so choose your input from the opening in the mind. You want them to think “Wow!” This is gonna be great! “. When you choose your opening effect, consider this, what effect the tone” for the rest of your show. For example, here are some different approaches to the opening of a show:

* Scenario # 1 The wizard walks before the hearing, apparently not aware, as he has a problem with maps appear constantly in hand, even after dropping out of a hat. Suddenly he sees and acknowledges his audience an apology on the issue he has asked for help in holding the cards so they do not return. Magician then proceeded to dump cards into the hands of the audience members, but the hat is empty.
* Scenario # 2 music plays in the background, the mechanics on the stage and proceed to an area of four walls to establish in the public view. So they have this treatment, the music stops and starts a voice, praise of the performer, machinists left the stadium, because the voice comes to an end. Voice Over said: “Please welcome (2 seconds pause) (Your name here)” and suddenly the box falls apart and the wizard there in broad daylight.

Both approaches have their own merits. First, the wizard to create a feeling of disapproval in the audience that his name changed to sympathy because they think he is an idiot “stuff” and then complete surprise. This sets the tone for another one where the audience never knows what to expect and are therefore more interested in the show. The second approach is the wizard on the principle that most listeners do not really care at the beginning of the show and then appears out of nowhere, it catches everyone off guard. This then sets the tone: “Hey, watch out, there is something happening here that you do not want to miss. “If this type of thinking in choosing your first integrating effect, then your performance will be much more likely to receive critical acclaim you deserve. Also you want your show to end with a bang, making the audience feel like they really saw something big. Many artists take their best for last. This could be your signature thing. Another secret is to choose your effects, so they are mutually reinforcing. A good idea is to use a suction cup “effect” and an audience member the way they think it get done crying, then they have you on stage when you’re done the trick at the end of this trick you’re automatically a volunteer for your next effect.

A little secret about a successful act is exciting. To keep the interest of an audience, you have some variety act in terms of impact you make. This does not mean all species of magic to perform, although it may be useful sometimes. For an example of how this work can read this topic in the Magic Hat. Even if you’re a close-up card or coin magician, this rule also applies to you. This means that you must quickly shift effects with long, beautiful effects with little warning in mind, the participation of the public with self-Ones performed. If you are a comic magician, small spread with great jokes. To play music, mixed background (Silent Music) with segments of talk. If you’re a performer, weaving between the two great illusions in-front-of-the-curtain effect. If your birthday parties, mixing “Watch Me” with those kind of things that the public participation.

One last tip for making a good routine for your show, which is often forgotten, is to select your items fit within a certain time. The general public rarely retained interest in the show when it starts to pull, no one has the meeting by 30 minutes a measure that takes 60 minutes to complete. Effects choosing falling in 30, 45 and 60 minutes from time images to your routine can adapt to any other requirements, while the freedom to extend or shorten the show because the situation so requires, without the end the random show.

Make a good routine is often neglected by magicians, because it is not interesting. However, a routine is the backbone of your actions. The successful magicians spend as much or more time in perfecting their routine practice their skills in magic. It is worth.
