Juan Pablo – Fadeck(VIP)

Imagine this: a spectator chooses a card and you keep it clearly in a pocket and the rest of the deck remains in one of your hands, now slowly, visually and magically the deck disappears until there is only one card left in your hand and it turns out to be… the chosen card and the rest of the deck is now… in your pocket!.

FADECK is super visual, the deck disappears very slowly, and you reset it in five seconds.

Excellent for close up magic and stage magic.

Inspired by an idea of the excellent magician Paul Harris Juan Pablo has created a version with a different concept.

The explanatory video includes three very powerful routines and a zoom version that is incredible.

Wayne Houchin – Indecent

Indecent by Wayne Houchin - $2.65 : magicianpalace.com

Here’s what your spectator sees: a card is selected from any deck. It’s a free choice– no force. Signed. The card is then lost in the deck, then shuffled. The cards are then dribbled on top of a sealed Ziploc bag.

 

Slowly, the bag is lifted up from underneath the chaos of cards to show that one card is sealed INSIDE the bag– the spectator’s signed card.

Credit note: Inspired by an effect by Anthony Miller.

Will Houstoun LIVE (Penguin LIVE)

“Will Houstoun’s lecture provided an immensely satisfying evening. Like no other lecture I’ve ever seen, it was an original mix of eye popping sleight of hand, witty tales of literary sleuthing and amusing historical anecdotes. Having had the experience once I now want more lectures just like it but fear that wish is unlikely to be granted until Will’s return to these parts.” – Ernest Earick

“Will presents a fascinating historical discovery in a witty, wise, and magic-filled way. I was captivated, from start to finish.” – Simon Aronson

“Will created one of my most used tricks and my go-to effect if someone stops me and asks to see something.” – Dynamo

“Will is a really fine magician with some serious chops…” – Genii Magazine

“Will is a natural communicator with bags of content to match the best. You will think, learn, laugh, reconsider and be moved.” – John Archer

“Smooth as silk… I loved your three fly and all your little touches. One of the best I’ve witnessed. Your shadow coins move so effortlessly and your attention to detail is unmatched.” – Dean Dill

What will he teach?

Coin 0.5 – Will’s handling of the modern classic, Three Fly, makes some significant structural changes to the routine and features some eye popping moments as well as novel sleight of hand.

 

Guesstimation – A gambling themed production of the four Aces this will convince any audience that you really do have superhuman skills with a pack of card.

Minimal Assembly – This sequence offers a dramatic rethinking of the classic Ace assembly along with some startling and visual magic.

18th Century Transposition – Two cards transpose under the most impossible conditions in this two century old gem that Will discovered in a lost manuscript from The Magic Circle’s collection.

Impossible Aces – Until you learn the techniques that Will teaches for this Ace production you would truly think it is impossible. The deck can be examined and shuffled as much as a spectator wants yet you can quickly and stylishly locate and produce the four Aces.

GK Aces – In this fast-paced sequence your audience will be astonished by the magic you can perform with four Aces and a selection … and then startled by the kicker ending.

Bouncing Shadows – This is Will’s handling of one of the most beautiful tricks in coin magic. It has been carefully structured to enhance the magical impact and Willteaches all the little details that turn it from a trick into magic.

Order and Chaos – This is the effect that Will has closed all his shows with, including dozens of appearances at The Magic Circle and The Magic Castle, for the last few years. When you see it you will understand why!

In addition to the tricks Will offers a bonus selection of moves including a novel coin vanish, an alternative loading technique for the Cups and Balls and a hands-off force and peak. He also shares some of his research into the history of magic, his thoughts on performance and innumerable other hints and tips on his approach to conjuring.

Jay Noblezada – Self Tying Shoelace

“Jay! I love your trick! It’s beautiful!” –David Blaine

“After 152 viewings we still can’t figure out how this guy does this.” –Maxim Magazine

“the STS is the best magic trick I’ve seen in *years*. It could be the single most ‘magical’ trick to come out as long as I’ve been alive. From how ubiquitous the props are, how visual the effect, to how PERFECT it is that a spectator asks YOU to do it! The fact that this is a common, EVERYDAY problem for almost everyone, it makes you seem like a *real* magician — hook, line and sinker.” –Acar Altinsel, Penguin Magic

From the Penguin Magic Creative Studio and Jay Noblezada comes a street magic effect that breaks the ice!

Walk down a busy street with your shoe untied. Complete strangers will INTERRUPT you to tell you your shoe is untied EVERY FEW SECONDS.

You didn’t ask for the attention. It just happened… But being born to perform is being ready when the spotlight finds you.

So you smile, make eye contact with your spectators, and give your foot a little shake. Your shoelaces start to snap back and forth, criss-crossing…

If you could move your foot in just the right way you might actually be able to tie your shoelaces without even touching them…

You give your foot another little shake and this time you get it just right.

To the astonishment of your spectators, YOUR SHOELACES visually TIE THEMSELVES!

The best part is, it’s a REAL knot and bow! Your spectators can inspect till their hearts are content!

Hanson Chien LIVE (Penguin LIVE)

“Hanson is very creative. He is one of the best rubber band creators and he has made major advancement to this type of magic. “ – Joe Rindfleisch

“Hanson is one of the greatest minds in magic, he not only fools me consistently but offers a gift of true astonishment.” – Nicholas Lawrence

“Hanson Chien is talented, intelligent and devious.” – Yif

“Hanson is the new Asian genius from Taiwan. With fresh new ideas, Hanson presents modern magic in his own stylish way.” – Lukas

“I think Hanson is one of the most creative magicians. He showed a lot of his new creations to me and most of them fooled me badly.” – Ponta the Smith

What will he teach?

YA Escape A rubber band is wrapped around the middle finger twice, and then escapes from the finger immediately.

Lucky Star Instantly a star shape is created with a rubber band single-handedly, and that rubber band becomes a real star shape band consequently.

Ultimate Jump A rubber band is wrapped around the first and second fingers and impossibly jumps to the third and fourth fingers while spectators hold onto the tips of the fingers.

Touch  A rubber band jumps from your hand to the spectator’s hand in the blink of an eye.

Frozen Band A rubber band is held with the thumb and index finger, and even without the thumb it keeps the round shape as if it’s frozen in mid-air.

Freeze! Let go a rubber band and suddenly it’s frozen in mid-air.

CCR (Color Changing Rubber bands) A very visual and practical color changing for rubber bands. This method also applies to exchange of bands with different sizes or shapes.

Hanson’s Linking bands Two rubber bands are linked with some rubs, and one band visually melts through the other while one of the bands is wrapped around the spectator’s wrist.

Breaking Point A rubber band is accidentally broken. Magician ties a knot at the ends, and makes it restored to its initial state.

Don’t Throw Garbage A plastic bottle is crashed and then returns to its original stat.

Solid 2 Solid The purest cap in bottle effect. Take the cap off a bottle, and the cap is hit on the bottom of the bottle. Instantly the cap is inside the bottle. Straight forward and highly visual. The bottle can even be handed to the audience right after the effect.

Gozner LIVE (Penguin LIVE)

What will he teach?

GSC (Gozner Spin Change)- A beautiful and visual color change.

Double Shot- Two chosen cards are found with only one card shot.

Mystery Card- A classic trick is done with only one deck of cards.

Deck Switch- With this method, you’ll be able to switch a card deck partly surrounded. Works for the stage, close up, and walkaround situations.

Chicago Too Open- My take on the classic Chicago Opener.

Matrix- Two-phase Matrix routine.

3 Jump- My version of the 3 Fly coin.

Dribble card- A card is freely selected and the cards are shuffled by the spectators. The magician finds the chosen selection while dribbling the cards.

Self Adhesive- A card is signed and placed in the pocket, a second card is selected and signed on the back. The signature jumps from one to another card several times. In the end, the signature disappears and reappears on the back of the card previously placed in the pocket.

The Promise- This an open prediction trick where the magician never touches the cards and the prediction remains in full view at all time.

Paul Lelekis – The Drawing Room(VIP)

6 beautiful effects that are Stronger than The Hulk!

When I was a kid, I purchased magic books from the 1800s by Prof. Hoffman, Herrmann, Jean Robert-Houdin, and a host of other magicians who I’ve never heard of before…these books were old, with very yellowed, brittle pages, with art-work that was quite intricate and very Victorian.

But what stood out most to me, were how many times these books would mention performing in, or retiring to “the drawing room”…this term really intrigued me.

These stellar effects within, will “spark” those magical times in your lives that have lasted us for so many years!

Effects:

Leave Those Jacks Alone! – This fun-filled adventure will drag your spectators into your world! You have the spectator FREELY select four cards and then she signs a fifth card. Remarkably, the signed card visibly transposes from the packet, into the deck! This amazing transport is easy to do and the four selections are shown to be the four Jacks…which you JUST told her NOT to pick! You’re gonna LOVE this one!

Strike Three? – The pressure is on the spectator…but she finally finds her own card in an impossible way. This one is very easy to do…and appears so very magical!
The “construction” of this effect will delight the REAL magicians out there…it is VERY, VERY CLEVER!!

The 7/8 Coincidence – An amazing coincidence conducted by the spectator – trust me…NO ONE will figure this out and it is performed by the spectator very slowly and deliberately!

An Even Lazier Lazy Man! – You are going to LOVE THIS!! This is a classic of magic that Paul has revised to make it infallible! Remember the old method that goes on and on and on? Well not anymore! Paul has revised this classic of magic so that it is not only far easier to perform, but also gives the performer full control…unlike the classic version!

Cutting Deeper – A classic by Bro. John Hamman brought into the 21st Century…this is amazing and fun to perform! You AND the spectator cut to the four Aces!

No Way…Way! – A prediction is written. The spectator shuffles a deck of cards then deals out as many cards as she wishes. She divides these cards into two piles and removes either pile! (There is NO FORCE!) Then an elimination of cards is performed and she picks either of the last two cards – that’s right, it is the prediction! This easy-to-do effect will fool everyone…including magicians! LOVE this trick!
