Mystifyed Live! Episode 22-- Justin Flom

Season 3, Episode 22

Magician, Justin Flom

Magician, Justin Flom, was born into the fast paced world of entertainment. While growing up in Minneapolis Minnesota, he practiced magic while being surrounded by a family full of performers. By the age of 18 he found himself headlining his own show in Branson, Missouri. He combines his loves of traveling and magic by taking road trips with nothing but his motorcycle and a deck of cards. Each place he stops becomes a unique opportunity to share his magic with people all over the country. He has also gone viral online thanks to an incredible video entitled 'A Soldier Deck of Cards', which combines a heartfelt story with mind blowing magic. Most recently he made an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show to showcase his incredible talents. He joins us this week on Mystifyed Live to talk about his career and what's in store for him next.

Thanks to the advancements in technology of the last several years Justin has been able to make quite a name for himself with the help of platforms like YouTube. It has allowed to share his magic with millions of people around the world. Some of his inspiration for creating and performing has come from his father, an amateur conjurer in his own right. Justin believes that there are three types of magic: 1) Magic that has happened. This can be something that the audience doesn't see, such as a prediction. The work is done prior to the people arriving and they only see the end result. 2) Magic that is happening. This is something the spectators can see throughout the performance, such as something floating in mid air. 3) Magic that happens. This is something instant that takes place at a moments notice, like one card changing into another. In addition to his views on performing, he also stresses the importance of making sure you define who you are as person. Once you can do that, try to figure out ways to use elements of your personality and make that part of your magic. Not only will it help make your performances stronger, it will give the spectators something to remember you by.
