Card in Orange
Hey everyone, By request from our friend @franciscoufarte0155 (I hope I got the username right, Paco), we're going to take a look at how to get a card inside an orange. So, let's break down how it's done. The photo shows everything we'll need to get a card inside an orange. Let's list it out: An orange – obviously, right? You could try another fruit, but a card hides really well in an orange. Two identical cards. One will go inside the orange, and the other we'll conceal. A utility knife (or hobby knife) to make a perfect cut. I have two: the yellow one for the card, and the blue one I'll use for the orange. Stainless steel straws, or something hard and hollow, roughly the size of a rolled-up card. A hot glue gun, to seal the orange afterward. The 'Contraption.' This is something I built to trim cards and create gimmicks. In fact, the first trick I performed with it is the one we're about to demonstrate. I used my contraption for this, but if you put your mind to it, you could figure out other ways to do it. Basically, it involves weakening the card by cutting through two layers of paper; the spectator won't notice a thing. This way, when we tear the corner in front of the spectator, it will perfectly match the one inside the orange. We weaken two corners so they always tear off identically, and then we break one of them. The other corner we keep hidden in our deck... For this, I use the two straws that I use for card stripping... Check out our friend @Zeta's posts, and you'll see what I'm talking about. With the help of the utility knife and extreme caution (if you're underage, please ask your parents for help), we remove the stem from the orange. For this, we'll use a stainless steel straw, being very careful not to push all the way through the orange. We'll apply just enough pressure to create a hole in the fruit. Then, very carefully, we slide the card into the orange. If the orange is going to sit with the card inside for a while, it's a good idea to wrap it in plastic film so the orange juice doesn't damage it too much. To seal it, we'll apply a tiny bit of hot glue and carefully place the orange stem back in. Here's the final result! Click the link below to watch a video of the orange with the card inside. Happy Sunday!

Remembering Tricks and Routines
Hey there! I've only been at it for a couple of months (just retired, actually) practicing tricks, some moves, and routines that I'm constantly discovering on YouTube, where I follow some magicians. Honestly, I'm putting in several hours every day. Once I practice and feel like I've got a trick down with its corresponding move (or so I think, because it looks good to me), I see another one I like, and I start working on that too, and so on. I try to keep up with all the ones I'm learning, but then I hit a point where, even if I knew how to do it, I forget the steps, confusing them with another trick, or I forget how the setup was done (if it even has one), etc. Is it likely that I'm trying to bite off more than I can chew? Should I just keep repeating them, even if I think I've got them down? What can I do to remember everything? Sorry for the long post, I'm hoping for your wise advice. Thanks!

Instagram Bio Trick
Rickyedit mentioned in a video that he could ask a random person off the street to think of a celebrity or anything else. Then, he'd tell them to check his Instagram bio, and in his bio, their name, the celebrity they thought of, and their zodiac sign or something similar would appear. Does anyone know how this is done??

I've Started a Magic YouTube Channel (Spectator Reactions)
Hey everyone! I've created a new YouTube channel with the goal of making videos on OME TV for random people, getting their reactions, and uploading compilations of those reactions for different magic tricks. I just started it, and any support I get would be super welcome. Here's the first reaction video I made. Hope you like the idea!!!

I Like Card Magic
Magic tricks are my passion; I love watching them and would love to perform them. I haven't been doing magic long, but I'm really digging it. Right now, I've only got a few tricks down, and some still go sideways (but hey, I'm learning!), and I'm not giving up. I'd love to learn more and make my magic surprising and entertaining. For now, I just want it to be fun.

Card Vanish
Hey everyone, for an upcoming show, I need to perform a card vanish by sticking it down with double-sided tape, but the audience always knows it's there. Any tips on how to make it less obvious? Thanks.

Hey everyone! I'd like to share a project I'm working on with you all. It's a magic blog called Los Secretos de Houdini.
On it, I'll be posting daily and weekly articles about the history of magic, book recommendations, tips for learning and improving, and other content related to this wonderful art.
I'd love for you to check it out, give me your feedback, and if you like the idea, help me grow the project.
It's still a work in progress, but I'll be adding more content little by little. Thanks.

Hey everyone, my name is Agustin, and I'm from Argentina. Ever since the pandemic started, I stumbled upon a highly viewed video on YouTube in July about a self-working trick. Once I saw the first few reactions were really good, I kept practicing, getting courses because I had so much fun performing for my family. There were many times I stopped and then picked it back up, but I never fell out of love with it. Recently, I became very shy, so to overcome that (after 4 years), I got back into it and did an approximately 30-minute show for my entire family (it went really well!). My goal is to bring that same joy I gave my family to other people I don't know, so I can continue to grow. Cheers!

Hey everyone, I'm intermediate in card magic and know quite a few moves in the craft, but I just watched a trick RickyEdit showed in one of his videos, and I can't figure out how it's done. If someone could explain the technique used for this trick, I'd really appreciate it😁.

Hey everyone,
A few months ago, I started in the world of magic, specifically card magic. I picked up the card worker's bible (Cartomagia fundamental) and started practicing, reading and re-reading the initial chapters (which included self-working and semi-automatic tricks). A few days ago, I paid for a course from a pretty well-known magician on TikTok (not sure if I should name names, so I'll play it safe and won't). The course is pretty good, actually. However, for me, I'm looking for more theory (techniques, moves, etc.).
So, here's my question, and I'm hoping for some wise magic advice: What would be a good next step to keep progressing in magic and avoid hitting a plateau?
There are thousands of tutorials and tricks on YouTube, and plenty of books out there too...
All the best!

Hola a todos! Espero que estéis todos genial!
Hoy escribo porque vi en un vídeo de Julio Ribera (segundo 8) https://youtu.be/HCAyHE0BJ5c?si=ir01F3T30ZhRF0WA
Ese efecto que hace con el anillo, creo que sé cómo se hace (hilo invisible), pero no la manera exacta de ejecutarlo y cómo colocar el hilo. En casa he estado probando pero no me sale igual de limpio que a Julio.
Si alguien sabe cómo lograr ese efecto así de bien, me encantaría que me lo dijera.
Muchas gracias por adelantado y que vaya bien!!
