I received this download from David Forrest just today (when within his time zone his reply speed is blistering). So here goes my typical review, complete with my initial thoughts, followed by an in detailed section regarding the presentation and mechanics.
Initial thoughts: # Its a flash video embedded in a stylish web page. Slick graphics; so web 2.0! Wish all magicians made their works this nice. # The main move that made the selected card get to the number chosen was fantastic. Will take a little practice, but every move has a good purpose. (That means no more spreading the deck just to show that everything is mixed up) # It really looks like your doing the real thing. # You must deal all the cards. Yep, that means no true Berglas, but its worth it. The little business cards partially make up for it. In detail: The effect can be done stand alone, and only really requires one gimmick. I really like the method to get a glimpse at the card the spec. is thinking of before they name it, and its very beneficial to the effect. However, if you don't want to go through that trouble, you could probably get away with doing it impromptu, although it wouldn't look quite as clean. I keep on thinking how much this really looks like the real thing, especially if you leave out the writing. Spectator names a card and a number, you show of the deck and remove the joker very cleanly, and then deal down to the named card. Fair. |
