Charles Scoville commented on Palma's blog post TV's Magic's Biggest Secrets Revealed: What?
"You are not the only one. A lot of the tricks they expose are the ones that are available at magic shops that newer magicians are just starting to learn, and trying to get into the business. What I tell myself is this... If you perform it well…"

"Does it have a manufacturer name with it? Maybe see if they have a website and customer support. Hopefully they can help you get a new set of instructions."

Profile Information

My level of experience as a Magician:

My years of experience as a Magician:

Private Parties (business functions / christmas parties / conventions / family reunions), Restaurants
My favorite type of magic tricks are:
Close-up (cards/coins/other), Easy to Learn (beginners / kits), Mentalism (mind reading / predictions), Street Magic (magic typically performed close-up for random people on the street or other public place)
About Me:
I have always been a fan of magic. Starting as a kid I learned a few tricks here and there. The older I got the more magic I wanted to learn. I auditioned to perform for a local events company, and have now performed for the Utah Fine Arts Museum at their Christmas party, at Lagoon for the Usana Company, and the Snowbird Resort for Reliable Controls.

My dream in life is:
I would really like to quit my day job and perform magic full-time.
My favorite quote:
If your actions are louder than words, your dreams will be realized.

What Kind of Magic is on the Market?

I have a blog dedicated to magic I have purchased, practiced, and decided whether I like it or not. I'm fair and honest with my opinions. If I don't like a trick I will post that I don't like it and explain why. If there is magic you are seeking a review for, let me know. I'll see if it's something I want to buy, and if not I'll let you know why.

Magic Site Review

Posted on August 29, 2009 at 10:30pm 5 Comments

I've found a really nice magic shop online. There are a lot of magic shops popping up everywhere. Here's what I like about Master Your Magic:



The tricks are actually what we have seen magicians do on TV

The Training videos are put together quite well

You can learn a lot of really GOOD magic for free - other sites that teach FREE tricks won't give you anything GOOD. This site actually is giving away some good stuff for free.

Their member center is quite good - with a… Continue

Performing free for old folks home

Posted on July 31, 2009 at 12:35pm 4 Comments

I had an opportunity recently to volunteer at an old folks home in downtown Salt Lake City, UT. The idea was to play some games for a couple of hours with the residents. After playing chess and bingo, one of my fellow volunteers told the people that I was a magician. Instantly everyone wanted to see some magic. Luckily, as a magician, I always have a few things packed. I performed some coin tricks, card tricks, and the $5 to $1 transpo. It was a real reward to see that I bought some… Continue

I just was reading your comments on Kipp's group. Did you read my tips for summer promo on ask Phil. It's not there anymore but I don't think you were here yet when I wrote it. Do you do balloon animals? I hate it too (now) but that is one way of expanding your business. I just started them as a filler but I got so much work just doing that it ended up being well let's just say from one town alone 3 gigs $900.00 a yr. for the last 3. They own me. Lions club,buisness association, now I'm an instant habit phone call. There is something to be said for pushing yourself and if you are happy with your agent keep him. He may not have that much work but always thinks of you,first,second or third and thats pretty good.

Nice site! I will have to play around in there soon,I just checked it out.

Charles don't forget to copy paste (if you can) I am kind of computer ignorant,any reviews you do on my discussion. I mean it, you are a very to the point writer. I am checking your site after I get off of here. Talk to you later.
At 11:18pm on July 15, 2009, Phil Tawa said…
I see you found Kipp's group,lots of good info there read all the discussions. (you probably already did) talk to you later.
At 6:21pm on July 12, 2009, Phil Tawa said…
you fixed it but do you want me to name it after you/and if so how would you like it worded.
At 4:36pm on July 12, 2009, Phil Tawa said…
Charles, I already started the review group but what I will do is delete the one I put up. You can keep writing reviews on the discussion you started just type each new one in the reply box and hit save. It will come up underneath it. I can not change the title of tour discussion from here but you may be able to from there. Put something like Charles reviews or anything you want but keep it on same discussion. You are the only one I have given a section to please ask if you think you are doing something wrong. I will leave the one I started if you want to put it in that ,I will wait to hear from you before I delete the one I started. Please put them on this discussion group and eventually people will start asking you questions in the comment box on groups page. My group gets read.
At 11:50pm on July 11, 2009, Phil Tawa said…
Hi Charles, I just put a review discussion on my group. Feel free to load it up, I read your reviews and you are a good from what I have seen.
I will leave this discussion alone and not edit anything out of it like I do on my group page so it will always be there for reference as long as I have a group.

Well I made it up using two magic principles that you probably know. I'm glad you enjoy it though.
