Magicians create illusions and tricks through a combination of creativity, practice, and knowledge of the principles of magic. Often, a magician will start with a basic idea or effect they want to achieve, and then work to build a routine or trick around that idea. They may draw inspiration from other magicians, everyday objects or situations, or their own imagination.

Once a magician has an idea for a trick or illusion, they will typically spend hours practicing and refining it to make sure it looks as seamless and impressive as possible. This may involve working on the timing, patter, misdirection, and other aspects of the performance.

Some magicians also rely on technology, such as video editing or computer-generated graphics, to create more elaborate illusions. However, the best magicians know that the most effective tricks are often the simplest, and focus on creating experiences that truly mystify and entertain their audiences.
