What followed were 1,001 moments: improvised evenings, coffees, entrepreneurial aperitifs, bars, jams, restaurants, trips, gigs together, even to the point of once being sequestered during a performance (true story as well).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey evolved in parallel, but each on their own path, cutting their teeth and growing together in the world of professional magic, clients, publishing, everything and nothing, with different styles, but sometimes shared intellectual and stylistic points of agreement, with contrasting and evolving approaches. They are both emblematic figures of magic in Strasbourg, and regularly recommend each other professionally.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMarco has gone his own way, with already 4 projects with Philippe Molina along the journey, and Quentin has developed several lines of work, among them a powerful informal magic, and an efficient, strong mentalism at his core. Both published a book this year, including Quentin’s first book, \u003cem\u003eBlue blood and stars\u003c\/em\u003e. And Quentin wrote the foreword to Markobi’s \u003cem\u003eHow to Make Teller Laugh\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHere, this project stands at a paradoxical crossroads: neither the heart of Quentin’s work, nor the heart of Marco’s work: card routines, knowing that these are not the ones Marco performs, and that Quentin no longer performs card magic in professional gigs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey will come together here to discuss, on one hand, routines that Marco did indeed create for the project, with reflection, paths, methods and the way of thinking magic at the core, more than the routines themselves; and on the other hand, the ones Quentin brought in: some of his professional gems (when he decides to take out the cards), and a few little jewels from social media, real life, or born from chance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn short, for both of them, the heart of the project will be the discussion, and the questions and answers given.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDuration:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2h54\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe project is filmed entirely in English, except for the interview, which is in French with English subtitles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStreaming version \u003cstrong\u003efully chaptered\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003edownloadable file\u003c\/strong\u003e for offline viewing.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Markobi","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53760907870544,"sku":"MDD-CONTRAST_EN","price":39.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0419\/0938\/7428\/files\/4fb60cc9-51a5-4ecd-acf8-43f5838b2279.png?v=1791285210","url":"https:\/\/magicdream.fr\/en\/products\/contrast-markobi-quentin-metenier","provider":"Magic Dream","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
