Masterclass by Giacomo Bigliardi (75.00)

Join rising star Giacomo Bigliardi for an exclusive in-depth look at his unique brand of strong, fooling card magic. Get 4+ hours of astounding card tricks and techniques for one low price with the “Giacomo Bigliardi Masterclass”— a must-watch for any serious student of card magic!

“Giacomo’s creations are a wonderful example of pursuing excellence.” Ollie Mealing

“Giacomo’s card magic is not only incredibly fooling but also impeccably designed. I am eagerly anticipating your Masterclass because I genuinely want to learn how it’s done!” Henry Harrius

"Giacomo is such a talent! His deep thinking behind all his effects is freshly inspiring!” Tobias Dostal

We first experienced the genius of Giacomo Bigliardi while working with him on our bestselling project “Fringe”. He has an uncanny ability to create magic that is as powerful as it is practical. You're also going to love how much thought he puts into streamlining his routines so that the audience experience is amplified.

This Masterclass is packed with hard-hitting card magic that you will use. There is something for everyone from impromptu hands-off stunners to more advanced techniques.

Highlights include his Shuffled Out of This World, which is one of the most incredible variations we've ever seen. You can show the deck is shuffled at the start and even let your participants mix the deck at any point. Despite them making all the decisions, the red and black cards still manage to be perfectly separated. His innovative Torn and Restored will also blow your mind. These two routines are arguably worth the cost of the Masterclass on their own. Yet they only scratch the surface of the unbelievable amount of content you receive.

Throughout these sessions, Giacomo also shares a variety of helpful principles and techniques that can fine-tune your overall card magic. In true Masterclass fashion, you’ll walk away a better magician

In total, you'll get two full length lectures that you can download or stream, as well as a live interactive Q&A on zoom for one low price!

Want to save save even more money? Join Vanishing Inc. Masterclass Monthly and you’ll get this Masterclass plus streaming access to 250+ hours of past Masterclasses and additional exclusive content in our VI Studio for less than the cost of this Masterclass on its own. New subscribers can even try it for just $1/£1!

Session 1 - Sept. 1, 2024 (4pm ET | NYC Time)

Chaotic Aces
A quick and fair production of the Aces from a wash shuffled deck. This is an energetic and fun start to any card magic set.

Pieces
One of Giacomo’s signature routines, this stunning torn and restored routine uses a clever gaff you can make at home. It’s super fooling and fun to perform. David Gerard summed it up perfectly: “Beautiful, magical, brilliant. This is a gem.”

The Butterfly Effect
A triumph with a really engaging presentation.

3P
A coincidence with thought-of cards that transforms into finding a four-of-a-kind.

Corner
A stand-up routine with multiple kickers. A thought-of card appears at the fingertips…or rather, the corner of it does. The rest of the card has been in the spectators hand the entire time.

Toolbox (Techniques)
Giacomo shares two of his favorite versatile card controls (“Illogical Card Control” & “Plunger Control”). After learning them, you’ll be eager to find ways to use them as often as you can. To help you get started, he shares some revelation ideas using the “Plunger Control”.


Session 2 - Sept. 8, 2024 (4pm ET | NYC Time)

Turning Point
An amazing four of a kind production.

Lies
A stunning lie detector effect with a kicker ending.

Theory Exploration
A discussion about hands-off magic.

Fingerprint
Quite possibly your new favorite card location.

Feel Triumph
This interactive triumph effect happens in the hands of your participant.

Shuffled OOTW
The iconic Out of This World routine done with a shuffled deck. Impossibly fair and destined to be a highlight for many.

Updates on Fringe
Giacomo shares his updated work on the overlap gimmick since the release of “Fringe”. This includes three full unpublished routines, as well as visual color changes. All of which use gimmick that can be easily made at home in less than 60 seconds.

Live Q&A - Sept. 15, 2024 (4pm ET | NYC Time)

The best part about Vanishing Inc. Masterclass is the interactive element. In week three you’ll be able to join Giacomo on Zoom and chat with him directly. You can ask him questions about the taught material, your own works in progress, or whatever you want.

In my 54 years related to magic I have seen different masterclasses of different magicians around the world. And I must confess I was a little bit sceptical because I though that Giacomo was a little bit young to give a Masterclass (sorry...it is what I really thought). However, I can now say, that Giacomo has become one of my new stars for many reasons: Incredible new effects, great explanantions, very elegant style and what is even more interesting for me...tricks that I can try to do! Thank you so much for bringing us such a great artist.

It was easy to see Giacomo's enthusiasm for his work. His thoughts and ideas on a few familiar concepts resulted in some very interesting effects. The final section on ideas for use of the overlap gaff card was a nice treat. A very fun Masterclass! Thanks everyone.

Excellent second Masterclass. Learned some very nice card magic with most routines not requiring sleight of hand. The difficulty of these routines is mostly easy to moderate. Highly recommended for those wanting to learn strong card magic.

Such a clever method for making a (mostly) intact card look like several torn pieces. It's a bit discrepant, given that the original card is torn into four near-perfect corners, while the gimmick looks like a pile of very irregular and diagonally-torn pieces, but the overall effect is very clean given the justification of the application of fire to rejoin the pieces.

Extraordinary card magic! Some great tricks are taught and there is even a "toolbox" section on some card controls. My favorite is the spectator's naming of three numbers that counts to the fourth matching card of three cards which were previously removed from the deck. It takes a little "jazzing" of the cards but is a fairly simple magician fooler!

Excellent Masterclass! I learned a few new effects plus two card controls that were both new to me. His card effects were explained extremely well in perfect English, and the camera views and angles were very helpful as well. I believe each of his effects is well within my capabilities as an intermediate card magician. They are different from my other card magic as well so I very much appreciate these novelties! I look forward to Masterclass number 2! Bravo Giacomo!

Daniel

Absolutely amazing material and theory! I love his ways of thinking when it comes to creating new plots to already existing methods. All in all, just a great masterclass that I recommend to every magician looking to improve their magic and presentation!

This is an excellent Masterclass that demonstrates several of his performances. The explanations are clear and are aimed at novice rather than beginner level.

It was really good to see how he made some effects really bulletproof. That is reassuring to a novice performing the trick.
