But that's not enough. He produces four more lit candles with the other hand for a total of eight!
A stunning effect that's sure to build your reputation as a magician. Comes with instructions for care and use. The candles are 13 cm in height and 3 cm in diameter. They are made of brass and painted white.
The magician gives a blue backed deck to a spectator explaining it contains a prediction. Then he says he has another deck, but it's very special; it's an invisible deck.
A spectator chooses a suit from the invisible deck and then he selects any value with absolute freedom, for example the 5 of Clubs. The magician takes the blue backed deck and when he spreads the cards, everyone can see there's only one card face up: it's the 5 of Clubs. Then he turns the 5 of Clubs face down, showing it's the only card with a red back.
But that's not all; the magician spreads all the deck showing all card have blank face.
Ask a volunteer to pick a card from the deck, then return it and shuffle the deck. Standard procedure, so far!
Now this is where things get interesting! Pull your Credit Card out of the wallet, present its front and back to the crowd and lay it face down on the table. Whilst doing this, present the volunteer with the following dare; I'll make you an offer you can't refuse. I'll try to read your mind and find our which card you picked. If I get it right, you owe me a dollar, but if I miss, you get to go shopping with my credit card!
While in deep concentration, you go through the deck, extract the card you settled on, and place it on the table. Wrong Card! he'll declare victoriously. Once he does, ask him to announce the correct card. The eight of diamonds, he'll say. You ask him to turn the credit card over. Just imagine his face, when he'll realize that the figure in the credit card is actually holding the eight of diamonds.
You remove a blue backed card from your pocket it has a large shark stuck on it. You claim that this is your card shark and he will find their selected card.
The shark instantly vanishes from the blue card, the deck is spread and right in the middle there is one BLUE backed card with a shark on it, this really is their card no switch etc. Now for the killer ending, they slide out the signed card it has a LARGE BITE OUT OF ONE CORNERS!
A collaboration with ideas from Wayne Houchin, Michael Ammar, Kenneth Peh, and Jonathan Bayme. A card is chosen. In this case, it's the Six of Diamonds. The Four of Diamonds is also used. You clearly place the Six of Diamonds in the spectator's closed hands (in a sandwich manner), holding on to the Four of Diamonds.
As you slowly shake the Four, the pips, that is, the diamonds are seen to visually multiply and move across the card to form the Six of Diamonds. The spectator opens their hands to find the Four of Diamonds, and all is handed out for complete examination.
There's a reason Cyril (famed Japanese magician) performed a variation of this effect on national television. Imagine being able to allow your audience to actually SEE a card visually change. Now do it.
Wayne Houchin (performer & theory11's Creative Director) guides you through each phase of the effect, teaching his original version utilizing the classic Moving Pips card (included). In addition, learn Michael Ammar's Visually Yours -- the routine that started it all. Taught in a high-resolution DVD format, you will learn every nuance of the effect.
