Project Polaroid by Julio Montoro

For centuries, camera technology undergoes back-to-back dramatic transformations, all to fulfill one human obsession: to immortalize their best moments.

That brings us to printed photos. Though substantial, they are a relic of the past. Once taken, nothing inside is changeable, or photoshopped. But did you know that you can actually manipulate printed photos in real life?

Courtesy of the brilliant minds of Julio Montoro and Finix Chan, we can now deliver that power to your hands – with Project Polaroid.

Rick Lax – Rip & Fold

You have to see this to believe it. Not only do 2 signed playing cards change PLACES, but they change STATE. And here’s why the pros are raving: No setup, and you end clean. You can do this anytime, anywhere.

“This routine will be going in my set immediately!” -Billy Collins Hardy

“10 stars. Even a mentalist will think of many ways to use this” -Marc Salem

This gimmick changes the game.

Most importantly, it is streamlined in a way that makes the magic look casual and effortless.

Close-Up Illusion by Larry Jennings

In this Larry Jennings miracle, things start to get weird quickly, as one card MELTS through another. It looks SO GOOD it’ll fool your brain EVEN IF YOU KNOW HOW IT WORKS.

And the best part? The gimmick does almost all the work! Seriously, if you can hold 3 cards, you can perform this trick. And that brings us to the other great thing about this trick, you don’t have to waste any time having a card chosen, carrying a deck OR EVEN TALKING. When you perform the first penetration, jaws will drop and ALL attention will be on you.

When you’re done, you can CLEANLY show all 3 cards (there are only 3 cards used) and your audience will be too stunned to speak. It looks like a special effect!

Matthew Underhill’s One

Image result for Matthew Underhill _-_ ONE

The effect is inspired (as Underhill states) by Doc Eason’s Anniversary Waltz. The effect is different, but the affect is very similar. A Four of Hearts is “selected” and shown to the spectator. Front and back are signed. Then the magician visually slides one of the heart pips from one corner to another. The card can then be immediately handed out and kept by the spectator as a souvenir. Not too shabby as card effects go.
