Deliver the magic to your audience

Hello fellow friends,

Once in a while or maybe everytime, you experience a situation where you perform good or great magic but your audience doesn't understand what that's all about or they have lack of interest to watch it and the worst could happen is they think you are "the star" of the day.

what happened ?
maybe lack of presentation ?
maybe lack of personality ?
Could be all

One point I wanna bring up today is "How to deliver the magic to your audience"

Before we talk further about it, I wanna ask you question
"Did you remember the feeling first time you saw magic stuff ?"
"Did you remember exactly how was it feel like ?"
Now close your eyes and remember it.


This is the first important thing to do.

Now the main thing.

Successful magic performance is shown by your audiences' reaction
To get the reaction you expected, you gotta make them "understand" your magic and it is your task to make them.

One thing you can do is make them understand through your presentation (which I won't talk about it right now)

Second, you have to transfer your understanding to them.
How we could do that ?

Love your magic !
That's why I asked you above questions in the first place

Love your magic first, then you can make your audience love yours. That's the rule
Put up simple story to explain your magic
and the important thing is interact with your audience as much as possible or whenever you have a chance.

Make impression that magic isn't always about you but they also can do some magic.
Make it a big deal that your audience can do it too and be happy about it.
Did you remember your happiness first time you witness the magic ? Now it's your time to make them feel "your happiness". Of course you have to smile a lot (don't have to if it's not your performing character).

By doing all steps you could get maximum reactions as those have served me very well.

Have fun with it

Cheers
