This download comes at a NEW higher quality—thanks to our studio's "Up-mastered by Murphy's" magic touch.
If you're in the mood for some instant gratification (and let's be honest, who isn't?), here are a few reasons to indulge:
RARITIES from this Up-master include previously unpublished gems like Look at Me, I'm Special and A Simple Woodcutter, along with the elusive Exhibit A, which is about as hard to find as a polite magician at a kids' party.
VALUE ADDED from this up-master features high-calibre downloads at a bargain in Not This, Prophecy Pack and Fill in the Blank Transpo—a delightful little steal, if you ask me.
WONDERMENT from this Up-master includes two true "magician foolers" in the elegant Mucilaginous Monte, and the marvelously executed The Very Last Card. (Seriously, you'll wonder how he does it.)
Vol. 1 - PREMISE
In this volume, David explores the all-important element of premise, showcasing a variety of effects that do just that—present a strong premise! Each routine is performed live and then fully explained:
- Look at Me, I'm Special (unpublished) - A Four-Ace production that leads to an ultra-clean moment of magic.
- Carried Away (from Constant Fooling) - An any-deck, any time incredible transportation.
- Eight Ball (from Constant Fooling) - Ink slides off a playing card and magically transforms into an eight ball!
- Tenacious Climber (from Constant Fooling) - A twist on the Ambitious Card that will leave everyone scratching their heads.
- Coins Through the Table (from Constant Fooling) - Stand-up versions of this plot are rare... and this one is a killer.
- Exhibit "A" (from Penumbra) - A stunning take on Hamman's Signed Card plot. Magic just seems to happen.
- Sum of the Parts (from Constant Fooling) - A spectator shuffles a deck, selects a card, and then a visual maths demonstration ensues, culminating in a magical total!
- Shred of Proof (from Constant Fooling) - An eerie revelation with endless applications.
- My Best Friend (from Close-Up & Personal) - A chop cup routine with a twist... featuring a small mouse.
- Chink-A-Drink (from Constant Fooling) - The classic assembly with a sensible kicker.
Volume Two focuses on power—specifically how it manifests during magic performances, adding a subtle flair to presentations. Each effect is performed live before being thoroughly dissected:
- Isolated Force (from Close-Up & Personal) - A unique and convincing card force where the back of the card is never seen.
- Half & Half (from Star Quality) - A signed card changes colour in a rather unconventional manner.
- Perfectly Oiled (from Star Quality) - A clear Oil & Water routine that builds to an impressive no-moves climax.
- Face It, You've Changed (from Constant Fooling) - A spectator selects and signs a card, which changes colour without the magician ever touching it.
- An Incredible Journey (from Star Quality) - A signed card mysteriously travels into a card box tucked away in the magician's jacket pocket.
- Not Quite Dead / Haunted Pack (unpublished) - A supernatural demonstration that cleverly uses a classic method.
- A Magic Lesson (from Constant Fooling) - A tongue-in-cheek guide to Card to Pocket culminates in a baffling magical climax featuring a spectator's signature.
- Holding On (from Star Quality & Constant Fooling) - A signed card passes through the table, performed with an empty hand reaching under said table.
- Prophecy Pack (dealer item, construction details included) - Regal's hands-off prediction effect that fooled many when he hit the West Coast.
- Penny for Your Thoughts (from Close-Up & Personal) - A glass of assorted pennies is examined—the dates differ, yet the performer reveals the spectator's choice while turned away.
- Fill in the Blank Transpo (from Constant Fooling) - One of Regal's signature pieces—a crisp and impeccably clean transposition of playing cards.
This volume zeroes in on audience participation, which creates an engaging dynamic and a sense of community during performances. Each effect is performed live and then fully explained:
- Lucky Seven (from Constant Fooling) - A self-working prediction effect, now with Regal's latest delightful tweaks.
- Control Yourself (from Constant Fooling) - An impossibility with a shuffled deck where two spectators find their own selections.
- Clandestine Collectors (from Close-Up & Personal) - A unique take on the collector's theme with some delightfully sneaky elements.
- Not This (from Constant Fooling) - Impromptu mentalism that can be done anywhere, with just paper and a pencil.
- Coincidence Deck (from Constant Fooling) - A display of astonishing sympathy that can involve everyone around.
- A Simple Woodcutter (unpublished) - Spectators shuffle the deck, yet the top card matches the magician's prediction... carved into a piece of wood.
- Off-Color Thought (from Constant Fooling) - A visually perfect switch with countless applications.
- Mystic Poker (from Close-Up & Personal) - A new twist where a spectator draws a card from a royal flush onto a blank card, and the magician magically fills in the rest!
- Mucilaginous Monte (from Constant Fooling) - A monte routine that'll leave them gasping.
This volume features two of David's favourite stand-up effects, Journey to Love and The Very Last Card—routines that are as practical as they are entertaining for the working performer. Also included is a card transposition perfect for platform work and a very visual walk-around effect with matchboxes. Plus, enjoy a bonus close-up story trick showpiece, After Hours, explained in detail:
- Journey to Love (from Constant Fooling) - An impossible prediction that injects comedy and audience interaction into Don Wayne's "Room Service" plot (inspired by a brilliant Larry Becker method).
- Swindle Transpo (from Close-Up & Personal) - Layers of subtlety in a playing card transposition that can shine on the biggest stages.
- Got a Light? (from Close-Up & Personal) - Two matchboxes perform a series of incredible animations—a mash-up of "Sympathetic Matchboxes" and "Acrobatic Matchbox" plots. Ideal for walk-around.
- The Very Last Card (from Constant Fooling) - A card-elimination routine that employs test conditions to create a staggering outcome. This will leave them scratching their heads.
After Hours (from Constant Fooling) - Regal's contribution to the full-deck story genre, this is pure entertainment guaranteed to earn you applause.
