come say hi to us, though be warned I may be in a massive white bunnysuit LOL ~
see ya on the dance floor!
It was a series of mixed emotions from Happiness to disappointment and all that falls in between. This season of Australians got Talent was one of the best, with the ratings to prove it. In my opinion, mostly due to the new variety of actual Talented acts ranging from the young winner – 14 year old Jack Vigen up to the Senior performers from Benchmark.
As much as I like Jack, I wanted something different from the cliche Singer or Dancer to take the crown. This view is expressed by many but as the show comes down to “votes” not enough people must share my opinion. Many have claimed “its rigged” and that Jack was groomed as a winner from the start.
The validity of this we will never be known but I do know that the production of Singers/Dancers from Talent search shows in my opinion will soon see their demise. I was Very very happy that Australian Magician Cosentino Made is through to finals, and also surprised he pushed all the way through to 2nd place. My jubilation mostly rised from the exposure and what this can possibly do for the Magic community.
What do I mean about the magic community??.. well mainstream audiences experiencing illusion, with a good showman like Cosentino helps open peoples eyes to what we offer, and drives more work for all Professional Magicians within Australia. Why do I think this??.. well imagine a world without David Copperfeild, without Harry Houdini or Lance Burton… the illusion business would definitely be a different one.
I think Cosentino will go on to become a popular magician, and mostly because he can connect well with the young audience. He looks trendy, is polite and doesn’t look like the 70s cliche magician with a top hat stereo type that many performers to this day still personify .
If you would like to book Cosentino for your show, or find out more about him or any of our Magicians feel free to contact us today.
Everyone in business, even us as magicians are looking for ways we can make our product/service stand out from the competition. Although alot of businesses are fighting for the online advantage with Facebook “like” wars and You tube promos in my opinion nothing beats Face to face promoting!
