I remember years and years ago when I first saw someone perform the Amazing Standing Card effect,
and I also remember just how badly I wish I knew the secret behind it so I could start performing
it.
Now that it has finally been released to the close-up magic community, I will happily
add it to two of my close-up card magic routines where I start to involve more and more spectators
into helping me perform certain effects.
Now as for teaching aspects of this instant
download, I was very pleased with the way Gaetan Bloom teaches you step by step on what to do, where
to do it and a few other ideas that he has honed over the many years he has performed this effect.
The gimmick that is required to make this effect possible, is something I'm sure every
magician already owns. Along with the instant download feature, the first video is all about the
setup which is extremely easy. You will also receive a video that helps you step by step, get the
right amount of "gimmick" and how to store and use it before, during and after your performance.
I really do love the simplicity of the effect and the laymen in the audience never have a
difficult time following along with what the type of effect you're performing. And even though you
can sort of call this a "challange" type effect between the spectator and magician, it still gets
great laughs because of the apparent impossibility of the effect.
So if you like to perform
close-up card magic, and have $9.95, do yourself and your audience a favor and purchase this effect.
It really is that entertaining and magical, and when those two are combined, your audience will
remember you and your magic for the rest of their lives!
