Hi All,
We have just released Executive Suite by David Minton. It's a great modern take on a classic effect. You can check out the trailer here https://www.alakazam.co.uk/executive-sui......gic.html Regards Peter Nardi |

I see some potential ideas in combination with the Mental Die

It’s not just key cards with different fronts and the same force hotel on the back?

David Minton has a killer use for it combined with Celebrity Presage, I could see the potential so I ordered the book test also

It seems they open up the gold card in a different way from the other cards coming out that's the only thing I noticed it looked a little awkward to me but it looks like a great effect.
Good magic to all, Eric |

So only the place matches? Is it just me or does this method seem obvious? I am sure the props are great as is the price, but it was less that I expected otherwise. Color of envelopes and matching keys inside, but red envelope with red key matches her purple card of paris ? |

I have been gigging this for the past month at socially distanced events ad residencies and it absolutely kills! The method is simple to us but bulletproof to an audience. There are some beautiful subtitles, like the matching coloured envelopes to keys which help sell it. Whats more, the additional comedic cards make for a great light hearted moment half way through without needing to do anything. The spectators write the joke in their own dirty mind! Finally, the fact that these are real, actual plastic key cards adds authenticity and a touch of class to the effect. Not to mention the possibilities to play this on stage and as part of a larger routine, it is a wonderfully commercial effect and one I have really enjoyed performing! I can't rate it highly enough!

Angle sensitive? I'm nervous they can't be behind you. But I have Celebrity Presage and would be interested in playing this in combo.

Wait, if she picked the red envelope why is the prediction purple? I understand the hotels match, but should not the color match too? Maybe I'm missing something,,, I wanted to like this, but that detail bothers me

Not really a killer but a decent middle effect. Not sure effect is strong enough to warrant carrying around all the envelopes though.

If you think of a way to reveal all the keycards before they tell you the envelope of their choice, it would be killer I think. There are also some other ideas you could add as an extention to the relative simple method. Be creative

In some routines you could always switch the coloured envelopes for plain envelopes and with the spectator intuitively drawn to the right envelope. You could also use these keywords in pendulum routines and it is also handy to have a variety of different coloured envelopes. These could be useful in their own right, including in Bank Nite style presentations. Neil |

One other thing I would like to mention about the color match of the keycards; the hotel of the prediction and the spectators choice will match. So, what would be the added value if both keycards match by color? If they would, nobody would bother anyway, because they are from the same hotel. From what I saw is that the color of the keycards will match the color of the envelope they are in. So with some creativity you could add some ideas to that as well. |
