Card Through Window - A Magical Look at the Other Side of the Glass: A Study in Magic Theory and Application

By Shawn Evans

This book takes the student of magic on a magical journey to the other side of the glass, providing for an extensive study in magic theory as well as application --- all from the perspective of the classic Card through Window effect. As a beginner, intermediate or advance student, you'll learn the general framework for implementing your vision and the specific conceptual tools that you need to construct, refine and customize any magic effect (trick or illusion) to fit who you are as a performer. This book explains the overall dynamics of magic: misdirection, audience management, presentation, patter, performance psychology, degrees of deception, group dynamics and the list goes on. That's the theory. Yet, this book also nails down the mechanics, the nuts and bolt of various methods and techniques with details, real-world insights, and hard-learned lessons along with illustrations (of gaffs, gimmicks and sleights), diagrams, photos and video links.
