@Richer Nogue - No, he does not need to deal the cards, but they had no table and the guy's other hand was holding a drink, so Pete decided to deal to make it easier. In better circumstances, you can have them take the cards out of the box and deal with two free hands.
Woah! I love the performance. Sparks so many ideas in my head. Also thank you Ellusionist for for once putting up the whole uncut performance from start to finish.
@@SebastianSchachner yes I received mines about a week ago. According to Ellusionist, all kits have been shipped already. Are you in the US? They might have shipped them in batches. I would reach out to Ellusionist if there’s an issue with your package.
@@SebastianSchachner did you fill out your survey to provide your address? I just saw the email that says there are over 100 that didn’t fill them out yet.
1. Can the performer deal down the cards face-up? 2. Can the spectator deal down the cards by themselves? 3. In the trailer, 2 of hearts was chosen. If that's the only outcome, the performer can't repeat the trick. Can the performer repeat the trick again? 4. If I purchase the kit, can I get other gimmicks other than the rise gimmick? What props do I get if I purchase the kit ?
He replied to the other comment that they can deal the cards and you don't have to touch it. I can't imagine it has to be the two since that was a totally clean choice in the video.
Correct. The magician DOES NOT need to touch the cards. It's just easier when the spectator is holding a drink/a bit tipsy. Makes for a more streamlined performance on camera. But in the real world, you can let them take the cards outta the box and count down to whatever number they say.
@@ellusionist I'm new to this Kickstarter thing....I signed up but not sure how it works. It appears it's $99 right now but doesn't ship until March? It has a pledge without a reward area and then the pledge for $99 selection. How much will it be once it's available on ellusionist? Any info on this would be helpful, thank you. This ACAAN looks just impossible and I can't wrap my head around how it is done 🤯
i love this but i do wonder why when asking the spectator to visualise so many aspects of a particular playing card that you do not use a regular deck to impact the realisation or there choice? they chose a red card but turn it over to reveal a black 2 of hearts. why do this ?
Telling the spectator to visualize something with a lot of detail is just part of the presentation of a lot of mentalism effects. And I don't understand what you mean by "black 2 of hearts". The 2 of hearts is a red card. Diamonds and hearts are red, spades and clubs are black. Either way, it is a great trick
@Daniel TheManiel I understand the importance of visualisation. I also know the the hearts and diamonds are red and spades and clubs are black... however Pete isn't using standard bicycle deck. I know the effect and I know the method. But the importance of making up a card identity from elements such as colour, suit, value to then show a black 2 of hearts strikes me as unusual. Watch it back. Its black
@@MagicAvi he’s released several ACAANs over the years, so the one in Attic Salt is the one he did during the Facebook interview years ago where it was done on video call with him in a different part of the world, spectators own deck of cards and no method other than “name a card, name a number. Deal down”? That’s the one that just isn’t possible but if he actually did release it I’m interested for sure. Not a big fan of limited releases but I’d pick up a copy of that in a heartbeat. Are we sure we are talking about the same acaan and not like the ones he’s released in his penguin lectures?
With the method you are talking about, it is the magician by taking the cards out of the deck that counts the cards. Here there is no movement of this kind.
Just got the kit yesterday and I can confirm that there is nothing missing in this video (no pre-show at all). You can literally just walk up to a group of complete strangers and start performing this as shown in the video. This trick alone (and the other ideas that you can do with the gimmick) is worth the price of the kit. Had this been sold separately, I would’ve easily and gladly paid $150 (with one very minor change).
Wtfff!!! Dude, not only did that fool the crap out of me, but that's the best ACAAN presentation I've ever seen.
We agree. Closest thing to the legendary Berglas effect we've ever seen.
@@ellusionist little question does the magicians need to deal the cards and if he does not why doing it then ?

@@ellusionist wow that make my brain burning
Woah! I love the performance. Sparks so many ideas in my head.

Is there any electronic device in this production?
Probably hahah. I also thought about that
My kit comes in tomorrow. I think I’m going to go straight to this one first.
can we discuss a bit about the kits?
@@junliangjiang6622 I won’t reveal any of the secrets of the tricks, but if you have general questions about the kits, I’m happy to answer.

Are these instructional videos only or does the kit come with gimmicks?
Im know im late to the game. Is the rise gimmick a gimmicked deck or no?
1. Can the performer deal down the cards face-up?
2. Can the spectator deal down the cards by themselves?
3. In the trailer, 2 of hearts was chosen. If that's the only outcome, the performer can't repeat the trick.
Can the performer repeat the trick again?

It's rare to see an ACAAN this clean. Magician apparently never has to touch the cards...

Do have to memorize a stack deck and remember what to say based on the card they selected so that way they could deal the cards exactly to that card?
no memory required
The Knights is correct. NO memory work at all. And they can name any number, so it's no only 7.
Is this just the best out or is the effect you would achieve every time you perform it?
This is THE outcome. Every time you perform it - it looks that clean. We'll post another performance soon to show.
@@ellusionistHold on, seriously? This is NOT the best out? That’s the only possible explanation I can fathom. It really looks like this every time?
I did want to ask, is Pete psychologically suggesting a card, or can they literally pick any card in their head without any psychological pushes?
It's hard to answer this without giving you the method - but there is no psych force, nor is it literally any card.
@@ellusionist Thank you for the honest answer.
I think it looks that clean because its the best case scenario..
No, Pete recently talked about it elsewhere. It’s not an MO situation. This is the only scenario.
how much for ths trick pls?
Click the link in our description. It's taught on the kit :)

Watch it back. Its black
@@chenelius I know what you're saying and completely agree. He should have used a standard deck with black and red suits.
Brainfreeze!!! Genius!
It's a banger.
Still waiting for Peter Turner to release his acaan that he did over zoom. But pretty sure that was all a set up because it’s impossible
That is taught in his books.
@@MagicAvi I don’t think he’s ever taught it because it is impossible. I have the majority of his books, which one teaches it?
Kind of like when he claimed he was using a technique called “lipping”. He hasn’t taught it because it’s not real
@@cromwandelure9901 it’s taught in his latest book - Attic Salt.

Don’t you think it seems similar to asi wind acaan
No, the spectator can take the cards out of the box. It's totally different.
Asi's is way different than this - his has deck memorization at a minimum plus other techniques

so many things you can do with PS
No PS involved, no tricky editing, and no MOs.
@@Rhewin well if there's no PS this is gold
EXCUSE ME WHAT
Instant Stooge?
Thats 100% imposible, theres something the vídeo is missing... but probably the method is great. 👍
They are going to be posting another video of this trick being performed so we will see.
Nothing in the video is missing - and yes, the method and scripting within this routine is great!
@@ellusionist Right? It looks like a full, uncut performance to me.
