We have seen this effect in person and can verify that what you see in the trailer is exactly what the spectator will remember seeing—no deceptive editing. There is something that occurs to make this work, but it's imperceptible, easy to do, and never seen. This is a practical card closer, that you can do without the aid of a table.
Imagine handing your spectator a deck of cards. They examine the deck, remove and sign any card (absolutely no force). Their signed card is now placed into the box with the rest of the deck.
The boxed deck is now placed on your spectator's hand. They look you in the eyes as you ask them to relax and concentrate on their card. You ask them to imagine that every card in the box is going to vanish one by one. Your spectator starts to react as they actually feel this happening. They feel the box getting lighter and lighter. It actually feels like the cards are dematerialising in their hands! Now just watch their reactions as they freak out. (This really is a strange feeling for the participant.) The box gets lighter until it feels empty, well almost empty! When the box is turned over they can see it only contains one card...their signed card!
V-Deck is very easy to do (almost self-working) and comes complete with a full online instructional that covers this effect in full detail. The online instruction also includes some knockout bonus routines by Peter Nardi and Dave Loosely. The V-Deck is something you will want to add to your act, a true worker in every sense!
"What took this brilliantly clever concept so long to be re-invented in such a naturally deceptive way?" Gregory Wilson
"What a great step forward from the original Rob Bromley effect. Why hasn't this been available until now? Think of all those gasps we've been missing!" Nick Einhorn
ProsThe gimmick is extremely well constructed.The reset is really quick.There are no tricky moves and the routine is self working.Impact is extremely strong and the outcome appears almost impossible.ConsYou have to carry a gimmick around with you that can take up valuable space for a performer.Care will have to be taken to ensure that the gimmick is protected from damage.
