John Guastaferro is a dynamic performer, author and creator. His published works are acclaimed by magicians worldwide, including his Brainstorm DVDs (2003) and book One Degree (2010). In this new lecture, John will cover a broad range of effects, predominately with playing cards, featuring some new material and old favorites. He'll also talk about the creative process and how the one-degree approach can create great impact through small refinements. Lecture includes - JOKER OPENER: In the Doghouse (two Jokers and a selection transpose), Club Daley (a two-phase sandwich effect using two selections) MOVES: Ballet Cut (John's versatile in-the-hands false cut/flourish), Proximity Peek Control (learn the identify and position of peeked card), MENTAL: Twenty (a commercial blackjack and poker effect with a mental twist), Little White Lies (a fooling packet effect with an ending no one sees coming), NON-CARDS: Some fun bits, including unpublished ideas for Ring & String, ACES: Tailspin (an impromptu twisting effect with some new added touches), Hide & Seek (a very clean pocket interchange effect), and CLOSER:Multi-Mental (John's signature multiple selection routine). "So on this download you learn a ton of new magic that can be performed in any venue. Like I said before the card effects are very diverse and you learn about various different plots with a deck of cards. This has been one of my favorite lectures."--Josh Burch. "I highly recommend this excellent installment in this great series."--Stuart Philip.
