Burn by Daniel Madison

Sam

Probably the best Daniel Madison gimmick on the market. The device is solid and will last a lifetime, if you don't lose it. The effect transcends mere card magic. Daniel gives good instructions, but his thinking about how to take this effect to the next level, is what makes this video inspirational. Daniel uses some of his standard sleights, these can be substituted with other sleights without compromising the effect.

Pub or strolling magicians can preform Resigned to Miracles (book) to gain a signed dup. Then take advantage of the restroom, and later preform Burned with a signed card and the burn applied over the signature. I normally carry around some baseball card sleeves for people to keep the signed souvenir.

If there´s only one gimmick that i can use for the rest of my life, it would be "Burn". I mean, it´s diabolical and that´s what i like about it. The reactions are really great: perplexity, astonishment, goosebumps. One spectator freaked out and found it really dark. I love the idea, i love the gimmick. Beautifully done. What´s more to say?

I have been after this for a while , as soon as I saw Vanishing Ink had it in stock I picked it up, great teaching and routine and the gimmick is well made to last a life time

Amazing reactions. Nice creative openess to the effect. The instructions and his attitude really push you to create your own way. "This is YOUR trick" he exclaims passionately. Great instructions and material included.
The process is a little challenging to work with and as is recommended to use another piece of metal on top to press down. Also the cards can start to melt fast. It's trial and error - although the burned error cards are useable with more care.
There's also in the routiness possible that "Magician makes mistake and then rescues" element at play here if you want.
And after all if a Magician makes a mistake then a "cool" magician could light a card on fire and have the "real" selection appear right ? :)
You only need to make up a few and keep them on you always - so for impact as far as pocket space - it's a great routine.
The burned cards don't smudge as much as I thought. Which is good. They will bleed and leave marks, but it's not like you'll have a pocketfull of charcoal is what I'm saying.
I carry these always now. As I feel this is a card routine which comes off as unique and surprising.
The routine is also a great way to introduce fire. And the fire has a clear purpose in the effect. A reason for the fire.
Glad I bought this routine there's lots of ideas to play aound with. And it gets "A" level reactions.

I’m having a lot of fun with this effect; the gimmick was made so excellent! It has a real weight to it and feels like truly it can last forever. It’s dense and heavy making me feel confident that it can’t wear down. Daniel Madison is a great teacher and he provides a thorough explanation especially with small intricacies on creating the best gimmick possible. Overall I think this is a steal, considering the extra two pdfs that you get that are full of content as well. It’s such a great buy and it feels like a deluxe edition with everything that comes with it.

Wow! I love this!

When I seen this I wasn’t sure, but at £30 it was worth the risk. Received and the gimmick is solid and long lasting , alongside this the download is good too and I’ve been crying people at gigs with this like you wouldn’t believe! 10/10 from me thank you Daniel and the Vanishing Inc team! VERY Highly recommended, especially for the working pro who gigs a lot. I’m considering buying another just in case I lose mine somehow … Buy it now
