Check out the April Vanish Magic Magazine: https://vanishmagic.com  FEATURE TOPIC: Creativity III - How Magicians Apply Creativity To Their Shows Connecting the dots and putting it all together In the past two episodes on creativity, we’ve talked about how we capture ideas and our own personal rules for creativity. The idea in steps 1 and 2 is to just let ideas run wild, record them and validate them with your own rules.  If your original objective through all this was to make a virtual show.  You probably now have a list of tricks and concepts you are more than excited to share.  So let's dive into that. But FIRST: One VERY Important aspect of CREATIVITY that we haven’t yet discussed is EXPLORING AND LEARNING COMPLETELY unrelated interests-- seeing what other industries are doing and how it can apply to magic You CANNOT drive down the same road for 20 years and expect to see new things.  Take roads less travelled. Putting it all together: Remind yourself of your objective Make a new virtual magic show?Design a new website?Design a sales deck for virtual shows? Remind yourself who you are and what you want to say. How does it all connect? I remember first starting out with my virtual show - it was a display of tricks. No message and overtime I figured that messaging out. But I have also played with the structure of my virtual show and the flow of tricks.  The first thing I look at is what props are needed before and after, what am I left with after a trick is done? Can those props/items be connected to the next piece of magic? TRANSITIONS IN MAGIC ARE IMPORTANT!  A true sign of a POLISHED MAGICIAN can be found in their TRANSITIONS! Show Structure The second thing to look at is the overall flow of the show.  Start strong, end strong.  Let everything slowly build in the middle.  How can be creative specifically with your TARGET AUDIENCE? Finally, think about your target audience.  Does everything fit with them? Connect with them? Relates with them? This is where I’ll go back through and punch up all the little details or even remove something!
