Eugene
Burger teaches you to think about your performing style, and grow as a
magical presenter. Burger provides specific examples--including fully
developed routines that you can adapt for your own performances.
Routines include:
The Black Envelope Variations: A classic prediction of a playing
card, explained in detail with discussions of eight different presentational
approaches.
Fading Coin: Invented by Tomoyuki
Takahashi, and taught with his kind permission, this astonishing routine is
nearly impromptu, and truly astonishing. Eugene has invested a great amount
of thought into getting the most impact out of his presentation, and now he
shares it with you.
Invisibility Powder: Discover how a
simple presentational premise can turn a good trick into great one.
Ob-Ser-Vo: Inspired by a Robert
Neale effect, this was developed as a "message" routine for corporate
performances. Over time it has evolved into one of the strongest audience
participation routines in the Burger repertoire.
Out Of This World: Years of
exploring countless versions of this Paul Curry classic have led to this
approach. Problems are solved and strengths are emphasized, and the results
are both practical and impressive.
Encoded for worldwide viewing. Produced by L&L
Publishing. Original release date: January 2008. Running time: Approximately
71 minutes.
