At the moment I'm finalizing my next release. It will be called 'Impromptu Mastery'. It's my most ambitious product and so I will not release it before it is ready. I will post weekly updates in this thread every monday from now on with futher details. Here is a little something from the introduction to the manuscript [it's not edited yet so there might be some gramma issues still]:
"In my opinion impromptu magic is the most important part of our craft today. As magicians living in a society that demands entertainment with a moments notice you are expected to perform miracles without preparation and with only the simplest items. I've always been fascinated by the art of impromptu magic and it is therefore with great pleasure that I'm about to divulge my go to card act when handed a deck of cards. The routines in this manuscript are created with a single rule in mind: they must be performable immediately after you are handed a deck of cards. Throughout the manuscript I'll give you an insight into my thinking as to why the effects are created as they are, as well as letting you in on a part of my magic vision. I believe such vision to be extremely private and that it is something each magician discovers on his/her own. Therefore I encourage you to listen to what I have to say and then decide whether it rings true to you and is something you will adopt. All are sound advice given after years of experience however some might fit your personal style more than others. Take what you need now and leave the rest until you need it later. " More information on monday, Martin Vetter - http://www.vettermagic.com

I downloaded Martin's 'Gemstone Genesis' over three years ago now!...I loved it then and still love it now.
It is one of the very few effects which I always carry with me and when combined with 'Prevaricator', can give a good ten minutes of solid entertainment. I am also a strong advocator of impromptu, or even pseudo impromptu performance, so am interested as to what 'Impromptu Mastery' has to offer. Paul Mc.

I have payed twice the cost for something only 10% as useful as Gemstone Genesis. The effect is easily worth the asking price.

Ok thanks Martin. Gemstone Genesis looks nice but it is only a 1 in 3 prediction.
I guess it could make a nice warm up though. Do they have to poke their selection into your fist? Thus bit just seems a bit odd. |

The spectators will be wondering if they have witnessed the real thing or you just got lucky. That is a great moment. And using the colors gives you great reading possibility. You can play it up as much as you like. They don't have to poke it into your fist. However, I found that it gives a better reveal if you don't open the fist before the reveal to take the stone. But it is not necessary by any means. Regards, Martin

'Impromptu Mastery'
by Martin Vetter PREVIEW #1: I can now tell you that 'Impromptu Mastery' will contain four of my go-to 100% impromptu card effects. I have decided not to include any filler-material. Personally, I hate reading a manuscript in which I'm only able to actually use a small portion of the material. A different approach has been taken with 'Impromptu Mastery'. All the effects are perform able with any deck and no setup-time. Also, the effects are those effects I personally use. Every day. This is workers - not fillers! I have fooled laymen and magicians alike with the clever construction of these effects. All are easy to do yet deeply magical. All four effects are described in utmost detail, with a heavy weight on presentation, as has become standard in all my releases. I will not spoil the reading by giving away the names of the effects nor their content. However, here is a small sneak-peek from the beginning of the presentation of two of the effects (keep in mind that this has not gone through editing yet so there might be gramma-errors): Quote:
The effects are not everything in 'Impromptu Mastery'. Next week we will take a closer look at the rest of the manuscript. Until then, Enjoy! Regards, Martin Vetter

Being a magician, I think we should always be prepared with some form of "magic". I just stumbled onto your site, and your effects look super interesting looking forward.

I would be extremely interested in getting a review copy. I am an amateur magician who performs for friends, colleagues and family. It has become increasingly apparant to me that I need to concentrate on more impromtu routines since when I bring out any items it autmoatically raises suspicions as to whether it is gimmicked -- this is not neccesarily the case for professionals who are constantly bringing out multiple items, but as an amateur it is harder to say "let me bring out this packet/deck of cards and show you something" vice "here hand me your deck and let me see what I can do."
The other advantage I believe by concentrating on impromptu effects is that it will force me to become better at my sleights. I currently can do a passable DL, EC, and a few forces. Clearly I will need more as I move forward so hoping this will force me to learn some new moves. FWIW with a few exceptions now that I am concentrating on impromptu effects I am getting much better reactions. I still use a few gimmicks because I love the effects, but it is becoming a much smaller set. |
