This is another good example of Adrian's great thinking when adapting an effect to the virtual
world. The only problem is, that it didn't work for me (a bunch of cards come up or none). Adrian
gives you an "out", which is o.k, but the main effect might not work for you.

I can't even believe this was possible this entire time. An impromptu rising card, now made even
cooler because it's over zoom! I'm totally SHOOK.
The only thing you need to know is that
you can't do it on more than one person at once. So you can do it as part of a Zoom show, but only
if you're OK (as a matter of your own performance style etc.) with having a trick that happens only
to one person, and with having to convince everybody else that this one person was not "in on it"
with you.
For me personally, I am not going to do this for multi-participant audiences, but
I most definitely will be doing this ALL THE TIME one on one. It is just SO good.
Also,
here's a fun fact: in the preview video, you know the one person who totally flips out at how good
the trick is? Yeah, well that person saw the alternative "out" because something went wrong during
her performance. If you do everything right, you have the power to prevent anything from ever going
wrong -- but you will learn an out to use JUST IN CASE, and that out is so strong that the reaction
will be just as good as the trick itself.
My only critique is that there's no plot or cause
and effect element, but that's something that rarely comes with tricks anyway and I prefer to create
my own anyway. One idea I have is to talk about dreams and how they can seem so real, and sometimes
are influenced by things I've seen during the day. Then I'll show them a bunch of cards and ask
them to remember one of them, then simulate falling asleep by closing their eyes. Then their dream
will become reality. Or something like that.
Anyway... Five stars all the way, and that's
somewhat of a rarity for me! The perfect trick. Buy it right now. Ready go.

I really like effects which use examinable props and this is awesome because it is the spectator's
deck in the spectators hands. I was unaware of the rising principle given here, but what a useful
technique to know when asked to do a trick either in person or over zoom. Well worth the price paid
in my opinion.

This is the best Zoom card trick I have seen. Very interactive! Can be done in close-up too! Easy to
do. No set-up. The client's thought of card rises IN THEIR DECK!
