I can say even before this, Dan's videos are always so straight to the point its refreshing... I finally picked up SPEAKEASY and yep, within a few moments I had the basic code and within an hour my wife and I could do some basic communications... genius....he is a genius...
And I don't call everyone that.

I for one would like to see how this works out for Harlan because a lot of magicians are cheap ******s.

Many fail to realize that all that "fluff" we spend time fast forwarding through is wasted energy. Every spin of that DVD burns up our limited natural resources. Not to mention the extra time the TV is on.
So does every text you send. And every keystroke we type here. In the very near future it will be frowned upon to write sloppy posts just as it is to write sloppy code. Also sending needless texts, refreshing email or facebook repeatedly, staring into a mobile device. As soon as people realize how much energy all this multimedia is consuming, all these behaviors will be frowned upon as reckless and a disrespectful waste of our natural resources. People don't leave the lights on on purpose when they finish using the bathroom at someone else's house right? If you borrowed my car you wouldn't waste all my gas by taking the longest way possible right? Then why make my entertainment system run 3 times as long as it needs to? Why do people think it's ok to talk pointless nonsense into a mobile device right in front of other people? Or listen to a headset when there is already music playing in the gym? I can see what they're doing and they are wasting energy that comes from natural resources that we ALL depend on. Do not waste should always apply. Especially when it comes to the most precious natural resource we have... time. So yeah. The timing is perfect. Cut the fluff. DD |

I think that post could've been shorter.

If we are quoting Facebook memes here is another: When one door closes another opens... or just open the closed door because that's how doors work.

Yes. Fail scoop.
I thought Justin Miller and Dan got together and said I'll drop my tricks to $2 if you drop yours. But I can see that's not the case. Maybe what happened though is that Justin did it and Dan didn't and Dan started laughing and Justin got mad because now he's stuck with all his tricks at $2 and doesn't know what to do. Making a new post saying "I'm raising all my prices 500 to 600%!" isn't going to get people very excited. It's just not good marketing IMO. Now if he said, "Things at JM Magic are SEXtupling!" That might work. They don't have to know it's prices until they get there. Justin, if you're listening you can use that idea DD |

I've been away for only a day, but I think you'll be happy to hear what I was doing... shooting some video! I hope to have something for everyone to look at, and comment on, by this evening. I want you to see what my vision is, then let me know if I'm on the right track. I hope what I'm doing is evolutionary, revolutionary, and mildly disruptive in a positive way. I'll let you know when I'm ready!

Dan, I already think that most of your videos are concise and to-the-point. (Ritual's was the exception though when I posted that you quickly put up another video without all the "street magic hoopla".) I'm not sure how much faster you can make them! But I certainly won't complain.
Thanks! Jim |

Okay, it took a bit longer to edit these since I really wanted to get the style and format consistent, but these should give you a pretty good idea of what I'm planning. I want to deliver the goods in a concise, yet professional way. I've already taken heed of some advice concerning titles and I have incorporated them (hopefully seamlessly) in a way that does not pad out the finished product. While I want to cut the fluff, I refuse to skimp on quality. I hope I have achieved that balance.
This first set deals with an effect I'm sure you'll recognize, but the concept will be expanded if you like what I'm doing. Please let me know what you think of these so I can go ahead or make modifications if needed. Thank you all very much for supporting me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PoQUb7CHkwc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=49tAPulgNnQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VuHFE6XTrKo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=klEp9bEAUCw --Dan Harlan |

Dan, I love the opening ( fast/interesting ). It was so cool/fast, I didn't mind watching on it video.
Great filming by Miss Jen! |
