The magician introduces four cards, each with a picture of a quarter on its face. The spectator is given a 5th card - blank-faced with no quarter. Here comes the magic - one by one, each of the quarters vanishes, leaving the magician with no money on his cards! However, when the spectator examines his own card, he discovers that all four quarters have now become imprinted on its face!
The Camirand Academy considers this brainchild of Montreal’s hot new magic star to be very, very, very clever. It’s an easy, professional, inspired version of the classic name deck!
A deck is introduced with the name of a person written on the back of every card. Two predictions are handed out, whereupon the magician accurately divines both a FREELY CHOSEN CARD and a FREELY CHOSEN NAME in a stunning double prediction!
You remove a penny from your pocket and ask someone for a dime, in an effort to perform the famous “11 Cent Trick”. You drop the dime into your pocket, but suddenly, it travels back in time 10 seconds and reappears in your hand with the penny!
You pick up the penny and hold it at your fingertips, and instantly, it becomes the dime! The dime simultaneously becomes the penny, as the two coins transpose right before their eyes!
David Acer Presents: On Screen and Other Mysteries on DVD
(DVDDAONSC)
Imagine you have a few people at your home for a party, when suddenly, someone asks you to do a trick. You shrug, pull out a deck, get him to choose a card, then lose it in the pack, whereupon you turn on your TV and click through some channels until you find one you like - lets say it's a scene with a busy sidewalk. You step back, then spring the deck against the TV screen. When all the cards have fluttered to the floor, one card is seen to be sticking (back outward) to the screen! Or is it? For a man walking by IN THE TV SHOW suddenly stops, looking straight into the camera. He furrows his brow, walks up to the screen, then PULLS OFF THE CARD, yanking it instantly into TV land! He looks at it on both sides, showing that it is indeed the spectator’s selection, then he shrugs and walks off screen!
