00:00Hi, my name is Jacob Getz. I'm a senior at Syosset High School. I'm 18 years old and I'm a
00:05professional
00:05magician. I applied to this prestigious magic program in LA called the Magic Castle. It has a
00:10fantastic program for young aspiring magicians and it's particularly prestigious and hard to get into
00:15and thankfully I was accepted and I really hope to go out there and perform some magic and it'll
00:21be a really fun time. The way that I wanted to get a restaurant job was the way that I
00:25was taught
00:25which is to go from door to door to each restaurant in a town and basically ask if there's long
00:31wait
00:32times or if you want to have some live entertainment I'll go like table to table doing magic while people
00:37are waiting for their food and it's a very fun time and I won't interrupt any wait staff and after
00:42doing
00:43this pitch I had to do it to 32 different restaurants and finally one of them said yes and the
00:50day that
00:50that person said yes and I walked out super happy. I'm walking through Huntington and I get
00:55stopped and I said are you a magician and I said yes and he has to see something and after
01:00showing
01:00him some tricks and he was impressed he said that he was a magician and ever since then he has
01:06been
01:07sending me gigs and leads anything that he can't do I help out with and I perform that. I am
01:14most
01:15looking forward to finishing writing my show. I have a magic show called Questions and each piece
01:21designed around a philosophical or moral idea and I'm very excited to finish the show and then start
01:30marketing the show and actually do the show somewhere because I think it's going to be really good.
