Topic: Danny Archer's Alien Invasion

Message: Posted by: davidpaul$ (Jul 20, 2006 11:29am) Hi Danny, I perform your "Alien Invasion" almost every weekend , and needless to say it always gets a GREAT response. Would you care to share your creative thought process in developing your effects. Alien Invasion is entertaining, as well as having meaning and a reason for the mechanics of the effect. Grandpa's Deck is another effect that plays very well all of your effects........(Eye Exam too) Café members can check out the video demmo on Danny's website: http://dannyarcher.com/alieninvasion.htm Thanks, Dave

Magic and my patter story evolved into a story about Aliens … After I had custom printed Eye Exam, I thought that Alien Invasion would be a good follow up … the trick is not one of my best sellers but I have many magicians that use it regularly and by replacements all the time … It demands a quieter performing environment but presented properly it packs a wallop … I use a small hand help “space noise maker” that adds a lot to the atmosphere of the trick …
