FLOW. IS. EVERYTHING.

In life, in sports, in relationships and in MAGIC. When you can achieve FLOW, things take on a life of their own, something special happens...

Welcome to an experiment... within this playlist will be a series of wonderful, visual effects that all have something in common, they all use some combination of: Glass - Silk - Ball - Egg.

What does this mean? Has Steve finally lost it? Well, duh..

BUT it also means that once they're all uploaded, you will be in the position to create a sequence, your OWN sequence using a glass and/or silk and/or ball and/or egg at the very least.

WHICH MEANS (stay with me here) that you will be able to put together an original and organic mini-act of fabulous effects that play big, are super visual and best of all, PACK SMALL.

That's my evil plan, to give you a number of tricks using almost identical props, then challenge you to create an 'act' using some of these effects.

By routining them to suit your taste you will find that the previous effects cancel out possible methods of later effects and create an all-round air of impossibility AND enable a smoother transition of effect. Less going to your table or bag for extra props, and more focus on your audience.

It'll give you continuity, and stop that jerky stop and start 'next trick' monotony of the average magic act, in other words it will give you FLOW, and flow is everything.

FLOW. IS. EVERYTHING.

So watch these, think about how you'd piece them together, and then the final video will be about how I would approach the problem. If you have any ideas at the end of this series that you'd like to share, please let me know and I may even add some of them to the final videos.
