      I would use a pen half in 2 with magnets in between without cutting the cards. Switch the pen with the normal pen to give it to the person who is watching, including the cards to believe your magic.

      Any chance you sell these card setups ready made? I realize its alot of work but because of that, there likely will be a demand. I wanna do this trick for my kids but having to buy the strings, double backers and do all the cutting & tying, its a little bit of a turn off.

      It takes years of training to perform a magic trick. I tried and succeeded in some basic manipulations, but when I wanted to practice "back and front", after three months I was only able to succeed one time out of ten. Professionals succeed every time and do it with not one card, but with a deck of cards. I admire their dexterity.

    I love how magic has turned into a realm of secrets to hide the wonder and now has transformed into an open sharing of ideas to make even better illusions that everyone can enjoy. Even as the audience learns how it is done that only makes you appreciate it even more. Then someone takes that same trick and adds to it to evolve the idea even further.

    • @Rhewin
      @Rhewin ปีที่แล้ว +4

      When the audience knows how it’s done it’s just showing off skill, not doing magic. The feeling of amazement people get is seeing something they know should be impossible without a clear explanation. They know it’s not “real” magic, but outright exposure eliminates all wonder. At best some people will still appreciate the skill, but most will lose interest once they know the secret.

    I just gotta say you are an incredible magician and extremely innovative, creative and imaginative. I am blown away at just how unbelievable and awesome your intricate card gimmick is. I just got back into magic after 42 years,(I was a teenager doing card, coin and close up magic from a kit and library books for family and friends and as amateur as they come). I had stumbled across a “Street Magic” video a few weeks back that rekindled my love of card magic which also led me to the world of Cardistry. I went from one unopened deck of standard Bicycle cards that I had just laying around my house to over 60 different decks from all of the top-tier card manufacturers in the Card Magic and Cardistry industry in just over a week, and I still have 21 more decks are on their way. I have been practicing all the basic cuts, flourishes, grips, fans, spreads, and shuffles every day. Anyway this video of yours is my introduction to you and your channel here on TH-cam, and you impressed me so much, not only did you get a huge like from me but I subscribed as well, it’s the least I could do. Thank you for all you are doing and contributing to the Magic community, and keep up the great work!

    **Tip**
    Considering your giving that one away, I suggest you cut an arch through the 4 closest barn doors. So if you leave the pen in, there is no square cut, it shapes to the sharpie.
    Wen you performed the example 14:01 the flaps at an angle are pushed back out. With the arch cut, you can perform a flawless pull.

  • @GreylanderTV
    @GreylanderTV 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    A better but slightly more difficult gimmick would be to cut the "barn doors" in a curved shape to match the sharpie, so you could even stop at each door and the previous door can fully close with no gap. That is, the side toward the viewer is always a semi-circle of a hole that the pen fits perfectly.

    Ok even seeing how its made and performed it is STILL an amazing illusion close up. The elastic thread was the thing I would never have thought of. I was thinking a second sliding card or part of a card underneath but this is much more complex and detailed. Very nice. And the other trick with the board and moving hole...pheeee..witch!! :)

      Usually you should try to perform this in crowded areas, like parties, night clubs, in busy street areas. The ambient noise should cover up the sound of the barn doors closing.

    Thanks for the tutorial. As a videographer though I feel like I should also give you some advice. Get more light and shrink your aperture (higher f number) as it will increase the « in focus » area. Most of what you did on the table was out of focus and we couldn’t follow.
    You can also record these segments on your phone as they have a smaller sensor and not much depth of field, most phones can give great images and everything will be in focus.

    This is super cool. I wonder if it's possible to make the barn doors smaller and have a funky shape like a weird spiral u? Maybe start from a corner and spiral the sharpie to the middle of the card and pull it out? God dammit I'm not gonna be able to sleep tonight!!

Why not magnetize the sharpie w 2 earth magnets.

  • @danielashleybaker

    Great video, but I can't tell if you're having focusing issues or just shooting with such a wide aperture that the depth of field is too shallow. It seems like the latter. If so I'd resolve that to make the videos more watchable.
