Making A Living DVD
Making A Living Performing Close-Up Magic
DVD
Super practical and extremely high impact close-up magic. Seven snappy routines developed and tested under fire in real life performance, plus invaluable advice on booking and working restaurants.
Linking Ring Magazine — Phil Willmarth
"Really liked the video, the routines and advice are superb... His tips on booking and working restaurants are pure gold."

MagicTalk Reviews — John Evernden
"The photographic and sound quality are excellent, the performance and teaching are excellent, and the tips section is even better than that. Highly recommended."

Joe Monti
"If a restaurant had a thousand tables and there were a thousand magicians performing, one for each table, all the people would want to be at Carl's table...including the other 999 magicians. Carl is that good."

Gregory Wilson
"Swaying palms, hot white sand, sun-kissed shores . . . This is where Carl Andrews makes his very good living! Now he's giving up his marketing methods for us mere mortal mainlanders. Run, do not walk, and take his advice! Who knows, maybe you too can get your own island one day."
