Now for something completely different - SUGGESTIONS PLEASE!

Postby MagicBill » Jul 1st, '08, 22:32



Hey everyone...

Say you were going to be doing a magic show for TV - something edgy, something fresh, something incorporating street magic and location magic whilst performing for the public and celebrities...

Say the show featured you and a colleague performing ORIGINAL close-up and mentalism...

Say the show also had a female celebrity presenter - HOW could we use her? What would be effective? Rather than just have the magicians running the show, we would have the celeb presenter introducing the sections and doing the links etc. to bring an original format and also raise the profile of the show.

Or is there a better way to utilise her?

Look forward to some constructive feedback! Thanks.

Be original, be interesting and be relevant to your audience. Same as always.

If she was a good looking celeb, there would be a much better way to use her than just presenting.

BEFORE people get the wrong idea....

I meant that you will get more misdirection from the audience if she was involved with the magic.

As for original, obviously steer clear of the latest things everybody will be using soon.

Original could well be something old you find tucked away in an old book, which nobody really uses.
Put your own slant and style on it and it is original.

We're really confident the material is original as we've come up with 99% of it ourselves - we're just more open to suggestions as to how we can use the celeb presenter (and, yes, she's very attractive!) other than just 'presenting' - it's a tricky one I know!

Well if you want to freak out any celebrities or members of the public with readings, you know where I am. I'm priced very reasonably.
