Roy Walton


A Gentle Man of Magic
A Gentle Man of Magic

It has been a sad week, Roy Walton has passed away.

Only the night before at The Magic Circle Book Club, we were paying tribute to his work by discussing The Complete Walton Volume 1.

As many of you know, this is a fantastic collection of car magic.

The original pamphlets had no drawings, just written text, communicated in manner which took for granted you knew your way around a deck of cards.

The following Tuesday morning, I got a message that Roy had passed away in his sleep.

In many respects, our tribute of Roy’s Book was perfect and yet, bitter sweet.

I am grateful that I had the opportunity to meet him and talk magic.

The image above I was able to create on a weekend trip to Glasgow and I am very proud of that.

Roy’s Books and contributions to various magazine will be an enduring legacy for all future generations of magicians and lovers of elegantly crafted card magic.

Scripting, Delivery & Presentation.


It’s a wonderful feeling to stand up and entertain an audience.

This has been my goal for the last twenty years.

In the year 2000, I decided to really focus on becoming a competent and effective entertainer with magic.

It has been a challenging journey because the Magician I was twenty years ago was full of standard jokes and silly lines.

I knew what was required.

I needed to write my own scripts.

This meant understanding deeply the power of context, premises and the emotional content in each routine. I spent time researching different topics, looking for key phrase, particularly in the area of Gambling. Gambling routines now feature heavily in my work.

I am not a naturally funny person so I don’t even try to be. I work with the humour at hand and try to develop my script into something interesting and meaningful.

My delivery has been designed to project a competent and effective personality. I practice my script, I rehearse everything because victory is the flip side of preparation.

If there is one thing that has helped me, it has been my interest in the world and people. Having conversations about different subjects, listening actively to learn something and asking provocative questions.

I also read a lot of books on different subjects, just to keep my mind active and elastic.

This is a good practice because my brain makes some very interesting connections. This is what is required when crafting an original script.

The result will be a presentation which my audience will find engaging and hopefully experience me as an interesting and authentic personality.

Good Bye to Marc and Simon


Life.

What a mystery.

Time.

Heart Beats.

How many left?

I said good by to two dear friends.

Marc Plant and Simon Aronson.

I am shocked and saddened because both have left so unexpectedly.

All I can say is, it was a pleasure and privilege to have known them.

Marc was the only one I saw who perfected the card flourish Curley Cue created by Paul Harris.

Take a look at this video.

Marc was a wonderful personality and friend..

The death of Simon Aronson came out of the blue.
I just got home from doing my One Man Show in Knightsbridge.
As I always do after a show, I sit quietly and review the entire performance in my mind.
This time, with a heavy heart.
My thoughts turned to Simon’s wife Ginny.
Simon and Ginny
What must she be feeling and going through?
Simon and Ginny have been together forever.
That’s how close they were.
It must be difficult beyond measure for her right now.
Social Media is full of tributes about Simon and rightly so.
His contribution to magic has been creatively impeccable, matched with stunning performances.
I am so happy I got to become friends with him.
Simon
He challenged me big time to strive for the impossible and not to settle.
He told me to keep my mind open for new possibilities, don’t be trapped by past based thinking and idea.
Striving for the impossible was Simons way, his approach.
He exhausted all possibilities until he found his ideal expression.
His routine look and feel impossible given everything we know and magic.
This is the point.
Simons Magic leaves you feeling intelligently aware that what you just experienced cannot possibly happen…….not in our reality.
In Simon’s world, his side kick Mergle kept pushing him to create beyond the current trends.
Michael Vincent Uses His Imagination
The Aronson Approach has now become the watch word for a magical ideal that will forever be a part of our academic conversation.
This is Simon’s legacy to us all.

3 Michals: Magic in Poland


Magic in Poland is becoming a habit.

I have just returned home from Poland – this was my second visit and it was amazing. I really love presenting Magic in Poland this is why I accepted the invitation to return.

My friend Michal Kulik invited me over to present my new Lecture “Synergy” for The Krakow Magic Session.

Michal and his partner, Michal Skubida, have been running these events for the last few years. Their goal is to raise the standard of magic in Poland.

Skubida & Kulik

I was privileged to be guest of honour and to present my show to the public as part of the weekend event.

Firstly, I presented my lecture to a full room of enthusiastic magicians. It’s amazing to me how far my reach in the world has become just through social media. All of these magicians were familiar with my work.

The Vincent Academy Class of Krakow

The following day was my four hour masterclass and it was a full on training for ten magicians. Everyone performs, no exceptions. With everyone performing, it means we can all provide creative feedback.

My Seminars are different to a Lecture. Seminars are about self improvement where as a Lecture is about imparting information. Students then have to take notes and apply that information to their data base of knowledge.

The Seminar is a safe space to receive feedback about style, technique, audience rapport and projection.

I was very impressed with everyone.

The evening show feature myself, Kulik and Skubida – one show, three magicians all called Michał – Polish Spelling.-

The Show was great and well received.

Magic in Poland Magic on Poland

I really like Krakow and its people – I celebrated my birthday there so it was a perfect week away mixed with fun, snow and full blown magic.

I came away with a renewed sense of optimism about my life and craft and the direction I intend to take things in.

I plan on returning to Poland before the end of the year to see my friends.

A Happy New Year from Michael Vincent Magic


A very Happy New Year to you all.

2018 has flown by and as I look back, I can see highs and lows and in-between it all, a period of real growth for myself.

I have travelled the world in the last 12 months and it has been wonderful.

It's all about the reaction
It’s all about the reaction

My thoughts and feelings have been on a roller coaster with great magic, friendship and personal issues that life just throws at me.
All of which must be dealt with as elegantly as possible.
I am truly grateful for my friendships; they kept me steady during a very challenging time.
I am happy my magic and performances have been competent and effective.

Now that 2019 is here, what now?

Well, it begins with a mad weekend in Eindhoven at a convention hosted by Leo Smetser. In between that, I am organising my first every live webinar that will focus on teaching core skills in mastering card handling.
