Randy Follis, a magician from southwest Missouri, agrees: "The training is mostly independent. Researching books, DVDs, and—if you're fortunate enough to find them—fellow magicians. The costs of those books can add up, though: "Most books are small print runs, for a small audience, which can lead to high prices," Mortimor says.

Magicians are nothing if not obsessive. Danny Whitson, a comedian and magician from Knoxville, Tennessee, says he spent a year in front of the mirror mastering one particular move. All that rehearsing can take a toll on loved ones. Magicians can earn more than you might think, but it depends on the type of gig. While that might seem substantial, as Taylor notes, "you are self-employed, so you could work lots in a week and then the next two weeks have nothing.

Then, there's the task of advertising yourself, administration, rehearsals, prop maintenance, etc. If you are in front of hundreds of people performing that's another matter. Doc Eason, a legendary magician who performs at the Magic Castle in Hollywood, California, and at the Stonebridge Inn in Snowmass, Colorado, is known for his incredible memory; he does one trick where he memorizes the names of 20 people in the audience as well as a card held by each person.

Without connection, you just become a clever person who learned to do a few cool things. However, he doesn't ban cell phones, since that can "start a show on a hostile note. Randy Forster, a magician from Delaware, handles the annoyances of technology by turning them into an opportunity for humor.

While some may do one or more types of magic, they generally stick to one category, and develop routines that play to their own strengths.

That's worth keeping in mind when you're hiring a magician. Each has its place," Haney says. Magicians like Taylor aim to change those unpleasant associations: "Many magicians, like myself, try to make the magic cool. You wouldn't ask your electrician to work for free so why ask entertainers to? While revealing a trick can lead to some ostracism for magicians, doing so won't get them sent to magicians' jail.

For one thing, magic tricks aren't copyrightable, so it can be hard to prove ownership, and there's usually plenty of resources out there explaining tricks already. They have occasionally even been revealed in court—as when David Copperfield was forced to reveal the method behind his Lucky 13 trick after a participant claimed he'd dislocated his shoulder during a Las Vegas performance. But there are certain centerpiece tricks—ones the magician created or purchased for thousands of dollars—that can ruin a magician's act if their mechanics are revealed.

Even though magic tricks aren't specifically copyrightable, Teller won his lawsuit because he'd registered his trick as a "dramatic work," which is protected by copyright. Although there are numerous trick card decks out there, Haney and Bloch both say a good magician needs only a standard Bicycle deck. Magicians sometimes perform in unusual environments—outdoors, at birthday parties, etc.

Taylor remembers the time he was performing in a church hall for a corporate event and fell victim to its old wooden floor, which was riddled with gaps between the boards. But just as he went to flee, he realized he couldn't move his legs. I was stuck to the floor and could hear the music ticking away. Panicking, I grabbed hold of the cloth [that was supposed to drop and reveal him] and covered my feet with it as I yanked at the floorboards.

I spent about 30 seconds of hell trying to subtly escape from the chains while talking to the audience as cool as I could. With a large yank, I managed to get my feet free, injuring an ankle in the process, and hobbled off stage as soon as I could. Occasionally, even the little "disasters" turn out OK. Follis says he was once working a restaurant when a couple's dollar bill, which was part of his trick, got "a little too close the flame and burned—only a little, but clearly visible.

People expect an assistant to remain stable on the table, yet she floats, so you are changing the direction of their expectations. Over the years, magicians have realized that learning to do tricks can be a valuable form of physical therapy. Several magicians have created programs that combine magic with other forms of physical and psychological therapy: David Copperfield founded Project Magic in to teach people with disabilities how to do sleight of hand work as a means to improve their dexterity, problem-solving skills, and self-confidence.

Background actors are the unsung heroes of television. Without them, most movie and TV scenes would be empty and unrealistic. The chances of using background acting as a foray into stardom are pretty slim. Most of the people you see in the background of a film or TV show have other jobs and are just doing extra work for fun.

And there are always a few extras on set trying desperately to stay in front of the camera. These guys would learn where the camera was going and redo their vector so they walked in front of it. Days on set can be excruciatingly long, sometimes lasting more than 15 hours and starting at odd times or ending at the crack of dawn.

And a lot of that time is spent just sitting around waiting to be used in a scene, or repeating a single shot a dozen times. On the set of Easy A , which was set in a high school, extras had to wear backpacks stuffed with bubble wrap to make them seem full. While posing as party-goers in bar scenes, extras need something to fill their cups. But film sets are no place for drunk actors, so the props team uses a number of tricks to fool the camera, some less appetizing than others.

There will be bottles that have been cleaned out and their labels removed and fake labels put on. Or, for the ultimate cheat, plastic wrap can be put in a cup filled with water to resemble crushed ice, according to Gale Nemec , who teaches a workshop for background actors. This approach also apparently makes for festive centerpieces. The same rule applies if your car is featured in a scene. On a film or TV set, continuity is key. To create the illusion that a scene is happening in real-time, rather than over a series of hours or days, every little detail must remain the same in each shot and from every angle.

Extras are meticulously examined for accidental inconsistencies in their wardrobes. For the Homeland finale, I wore a pair of leggings and a raincoat for a solid week. Background actors are usually expected to bring their own clothes to set unless the production has a large wardrobe budget. Muted colors are preferred on set to make sure extras are as unremarkable as possible. And pro tip: never look at the camera. This means pretending to conduct a conversation without actually making any noise, and every extra seems to have their own method. Also, dance scenes are often filmed in silence and the music is added in later.

While filming a crowd scene for the movie Jersey Girl , Feifer says he spent hours pretending to applaud and cheer. We would fake clap but not actually get our hands to meet. For indoor scenes, air conditioning has to be turned off to eliminate background noise, which makes for a sweaty situation. Between takes, overheating extras strip their layers off to cool down.

While filming on one movie, McHargue and her fellow extras were told to avoid looking the star in the eye. On the flip side, Francis was the victim of one star's on-set meltdown. She will never work on a set again.

The quality of food on set varies depending on budget, but generally, extras eat some amazing grub brought in by professional caterers. A woman has gone viral on TikTok after sharing a video which appears to show her hands disappearing into each other.
