A first glimpse at Prophet by Tom Isaacson. The most insanely visual bill change yet released. No strange motions. No folding. No cover. More information coming soon...

Did anyone see the youtube video before it got taken down? If that really was prophet it was way cooler than extreme burn! Hopefully we'll see more soon.

It's got to be afold. Sure it's not your standard "Here watch me fold the money and it changes" kind of trick, but you can see at the snap where he folds it. Same old trick, new look and faster to fool the eye.... but not mine!

Looks a bit too jumpy for me, but looks alright. Don't think I will be buying this though.

ok to me this looks completely different than extreme burn. extremel burn there are folds. here there arent. i agree that it was edited a little to far, but it probably has to be done to cover the effect from people who are going to watch it 800 times. It is obviously going to be gimmicked or else it would of said otherwise in the trailer. the main question of this entire thing is, IS THE GIMMICK PRACTICAL? is it worth building for this effect? We'll find out soon enough, In the mean time, i wanna get Digital Dissolve.

confused.... lol i thinkin extremem burn. but i hate bill switches...i LOVE the effect...but i hate gimmicks...with a passioin...except for a select few...svengali decks, gaff decks (only when done well) and occassional **** like self tyin shoelace. i hate carryin things in my pockets or riggin clothes and with some bill switches u have gaffed money...hate that cuz you cant hand it out for inspection. jus another thing to carry in your pocket. there are all sorts of changes that come with extreme burn. HOWEVER if this is no gimmicks then i swear to god ima buy this...

I had the pleasure of seeing this effect when Tom first put it on video for my feedback. It looked like a camera trick it was so good. When Tom came to the east coast a few weeks later he showed me in person and it blew me away. It is my favorite effect now. I have seen many versions and this one is simply the best IMHO. I turn Ones into Twentys, becaue its safer in a dark night club (I don't feel like getting robbed again, but thats another story.) Looking forward to seeing more!

Looks good, but I think I'll stick with Extreme Burn.

Many of the other handlings are indeed done unfolded including extreme burn. and many of the older handlings. so tell me again what sets this apart of the rest other then fanboy hero worship with no substance that plagues this site

after sanders' extreme burn and hieny 500 this release seems ill timed, the changes in extreme burn look much much better with no wrist kill to cover the motion. you could do a chnage with the easy money gimmick used in other efftects without neededing to be told how but its not as good. the only thing that might save this effect is a hope that is does not use the easy money gimmick or is somehow impromptu not sure how carry 500 dollars for a effect is impromtu though =D

Sorry, but I was really disappointed with this demo. "Extreme Burn" is out there right now, everybody's liking it, and the demo shows a lot more. With this demo you get the same kind of reactions and Vegas location shots found in the other T11 demos (which, honestly, are feeling pretty repetitive) and only the smallest amount of footage relating to the effect. I'm probably going to pick up "Extreme Burn" but waited until this demo came out to see if I should hold on for this instead. On the basis of it, I think I'll just go ahead with the Sanders effect.
