Hi All!
It’s been a while since i’ve posted anything (busy with accountancy exams…ugh), but I just thought I’d share a couple of routines I’ve been playing with. Apologies for the 'darkness' of the videos, but I only decided to film these at nearly midnight last night!
Jackass
This is a quick FASDIU routine, inspired by the legend that is Roy Walton. Whilst the presentation obviously borrows from ‘Smiling Mule’ the handling was actually inspired by a totally different trick of his, namely ‘Mission Accomplished’ from ‘The Complete Walton Vol: 1’.
The Magic Number
This was inspired by Paul Gordon’s ‘Amazing Four Card Trick', along with Dave Forrest's 'Three Card Trick'. Whilst I like Paul and Dave's handlings, I’m not a big fan of tricks where you get someone to pick a card and then do a bunch of random, unrelated stuff before revealing it. I always feel like you’re just giving them more opportunity to forget their selection. Either way, this was an attempt to create a handling that didn’t involve a selection, put all the focus on the number of cards and also had a ‘definite’ ending.
Thanks for taking the time to check them out. Any feedback would be much appreciated.
Have good Sunday!
