Magic Modeling Language (MML) is a way professional magicians can abstractly describe and quantify the dynamics of a magic trick.

By looking past the presentational details of a particular trick, we can compare tricks that are seemingly very different in interesting ways.

Through effect maps, we can quantify elements of magic tricks that are sometimes clouded by presentation. effect maps are one more way that professional magicians can further analyze and refine their performances...

And it's a free gift from Alvo!

This is a great product and a fantastic download of a completely adaptable system, that is able to be personalised and expanded upon as you see fit.

The ideas are presented clearly and with plenty of examples - as another reviewer suggested, I applied the system to an effect I enjoy and can see many benefits.

Reviewing your own, or others' magic
Routine-building
Audience-specific act-building
Goal-Setting my next effects to learn and purchase (a side-benefit to this for me is "Financial Planner" :)
Defining style and characterisation

The more I consider, the more ideas arise

I cannot comment on the origins of these ideas, but the presentation here is a flawless description I will benefit from

I didn't get a whole lot out of this one but only because I've been using similar methods like this for years alright.

Anyone who doesn't know this stuff should check this book out, it's free so you've got nothing to lose.

WOW!!! This PDF REALLY helps. You now actually have a visual way to look at your tricks and see if it is something that will build on it's climax(s) and if there is enough spectator interaction.

I'm amazed it's free!!!!!!!!

pretty cool Report this review

Honestly, this was worth looking into.

It helps you create a timeline/sequence of a magic effect. You'd be suprised, really.

What I would suggest is to try the procedure for one of your favorite effects. For instance, I did it for Clutch and got a better perspective of exactly how much interactive and magician-touching-of-objects there really was. It's interesting, thanks Alvo...
