Magic Tricks

I have the first version of 52 shades of red, and it seems like this one is much longer in duration, as well as explanation. Not only do you get to see the methods, but Shin goes over everything, including why he does what he does, as well as go through every movement in his act (with the exception of Gone Deck, which will be released on the 18th of January I believe). The actual 52 shades routine is so much better than it used to be, and like I said, every movement is explained. Mike Charles, a friend of Shin, also is there the whole time, and asks some questions that viewers might have, so that way if you don't understand completely, Mike clears it up. 5/5 on the main routine, so much better than before, and I loved the old version.

Along with the main routine all of these are covered.
Misprint: Misprint is a very visual fixation of a card, and in my opinion very clean, I think it would be cool to use this in a routine with Paul Harris's screwed deck. 5/5 for being visual and clean.

Small to Big: This is another boom in your face moment, it is very unexpected and very visual. (an idea by Chris Severson)Very easy to do as well 5/5

Multiple Change: This does what it's called, you change the color of the card not one, not twice, but four times. It's crazy visual, and pretty clean too! 5/5

Multiple cards vanish: I feel like this is inspired by Aaron Fisher's Panic a little bit, but is brought on the next level in my opinion, you hold a packet, and it visually turns to a four of a kind , or one card, all the cards vanish, or they transform into something else completly! 5/5

Picasso: An idea by both Tom Elderfield and Shin. You change the color of one card, and paint the rest of the deck into that color. Very Very visual, but a little angly if you don't make the gimmick perfect. But when made correctly, it is a beautiful change 5/5
Box Color change 2.0: An advancement on the Box color change on the original 52 shades. Personally I like the other one better, but the perks of this one is it is much more visual, as well as a faster cleaner change.(an idea contributed by Nevin Sanchez)4/5 I like the faster cleaner change, but like how the original shows the whole box.
Flap Cards: Shin's version of the classic flap card. With his additions and how he constructs it, makes it into a flap card you can actually use. It is the best flap card up to date, and has a very less chance of breaking. 5/5

Although Gone Deck is not taught, another box vanish is, the one used on his China tour, and it is also very clean and visual.

So if you are looking to add some visual magic, this is for you. If you are looking how to expand your creativity, this is for you. If you are not willing to put in work, or make your own gimmicks, this is not for you, because you have to make a gimmick for all of the things taught. this is not for the lazy magician, but once you put in the work on making the gimmicks, it pays off so quickly! If you have the original as well, I would recommend picking this up, because the additions are worth it. One thing to note is that you can't use the actual 52 shades routine for television. Great work by Shin, and the rest of the people involved in the project! 5/5
