In this episode we sit down with the one and only Chris Wiehl to chat about being original and creative with magic effects. If you aren’t familiar with Chris’ magic, check out any of the following tricks he’s created.

And All Will Be Consumed

Rip

Senses

Arthur – PS. If you want to win ARTHUR you can try out our September Contest

If you just watch any one of those you’ll get an opportunity to see how creative he is.

In the episode he explains that he doesn’t just sit down and create a new effect. Ideas, premises, and methods all come from jamming, learning, compromising and being open. Interestingly enough we speak about some of his favourite performers, who surprisingly enough aren’t big method creators.

There’s some inspiration for you if you aren’t a big method creator (THATS US TOO), there are so many different ways to be creative.

We once again want to thank Chris for donating ARTHUR for the winner of Septembers contest. If you haven’t entered the contest yet, click here to go see how you can win an arthur
