recently ive seen a couple stage performers and met a couple... The magician is een perform was Puck...he was great man he did some bird productions and silk routines it was sick. then i saw an old tape with a kid who did a routine with gumballs... he did some sick miming and 'stepped' on his chewed gum then started leaningall over likes hes aboutto fall... stage is alot different to me now... im think about getting into it but it just requires SO much money inorder to get the props to make a sick looking routine and not cheesey fake slowers out of a seemingly empty big brass tube... for now i think im sticking with my closeup... any thoughts on my situation?

Many stage effects are adaptable to close-up. You just have to make your own miniature props and gimmicks.

maybe ill branch out to stage when i get older...and have a job therefore have money to aford props...
