Hello everyone,
I've been heading out into the streets a couple time to perform some of my Street Mentalism. I bring a long my buddy w/ his camera and afterward we've been posting them on Youtube and other places. So, far it's gone good except for approaching certain people. You see I can go up to Youger guys and girls and they are happy to be taped and watch the stuff I do. BUT! A lot of time w/ the older people {And I'm talking about 30s and up} they just don't even want to talk to me. I'll come up to them w/ a deck of cards in my hand doing a spring and say something like How's it going? Interested in seeing something?". And they just say "NOOOO. No thanks". And just keep walking. Does anyone have advice on what's the best way to approach people on the streets? Thanx! ~Robert EC

Yes, get a bigger camera crew and have them sign the model release first.

Ha Ha You might be on to something there, Magic Santa.
Let me also say that I do realize that there are people that just don't want to be appoached and talked to -- let alone be taped. But I'd really like to hear any guidelines and hints people got for approaching others on the streets. Thanx again! ~Robert EC

First, your question might be bettered addressed on the Street Magic forum and not the Sidewalk Shuffle. Asking people if they want to see a magic trick is generally considered a mistake.

You know what? I just saw the Street Magic forum. I'm going to ask there.
