Thank you! I was reluctant to let this go at first but I hope people enjoy it. It really is an ideal closer. In addition to learning the routine, I talk a lot about performance and energy on the dvd. I think it's a good value! But then again I am biased.

Can the cards be examined after the effect

Yes. Nothing added or taken away during the effect

As always billiant Cameron.
I can see me doing this at one of my two residencies that I have had for 9 years. A lot of people are repeat customers & they would love this as a closer when they are all celebrating a special occasion. The birthday, retiring or wedding aniversary couple are made the stars. Easy to do so we can concentrate fully on the entertainment(which is how it should be) & everything is supplied & ready to go. Like this. Mike Donoghue |

Thank you! Yes, the whole point of the routine is that the spectator is the star. They do the magic. The reactions for this routine are through the roof.

Nice. It's like every good card trick wrapped into one. But still somehow uncluttered.
Now appearing nightly in my basement.

Why does every new card effect end with the rest of the deck going blank? Think that particular plot twist works better when there is only one card involved. I am a big Cameron fan but this release doesn't interest me that much.

The deck turns blank at the end because it makes a terrific and surprising finale. I didn't realize that blank deck endings were a trend right now. I came up with this effect over three years ago because I wanted a strong closer to my act. Something akin to J C Wagners Super Closer. Sorry you don't like the effect, John. It's my personal favorite as it's a real performance piece and truly gets "over the top" reactions.
Keep in mind, brcause I use this trick as a closer, so everyone believes that the deck I'm using is the deck I've been using throughout the entire performance. It ends with 32 blank cards. that's a lot of blank cards. Makes for a shocking moment of astonishment

Much respect and love Cameron! I have added a LOT of your top notch material to my repertoire as you know. I really don't know if I like the routine or not as the trailer doesn't give that much detail. Maybe the cards going blank at the end makes sense in the context of the routine. However IMHO I think the specs will be left with wondering how the deck without was switched rather than how cards arranged themselves as in JCs trick.

You could still purchase Cameron's effect. You could modify it in order to achieve your desired ending. When you perform the effect, notice which cards are displayed at the finale of the effect. Take another regular deck of cards and pull out all of the cards OTHER than the ones in the display. Sort them into the order that you please and switch them out for the blank cards in the deck which comes with the effect. There would need to be a minor change in handling, but you can PM me if you want to go down that route. Hope this makes sense, Zack |

Zack, you could do a Super Closer Thing but it would be tricky. The set up would have to be completely different. Could work, though.

Especially if you perform with a deck the entire show and execute a deck switch. If you think about it in the spectator's perspective, the faces from the deck you have been using the entire time have vanished at the end. That's pretty amazing! I agree with Cameron--It might be a little too much work for the Super Closer ending when the blank card ending is equally (if not more) strong. Zack |

I don't think j100Taylor had seen the full performance when he posted that. When you watch the full performance, it's clear why the deck turns blank. It's a very strong ending!

Cameron,
First let me say that I love your work and own a ton of your material. You are an incredibly talented and creative dude! Also I love the guys at BBM. The production values are insane and the "spectators" in each DVD are spectacular...if you know what I mean. I'm a little torn though on this one. For those of us that bought "Full" awhile back and know the guts of the routine - $30 seems a bit steep. However, the reason I stopped doing Over the Top after learning it on "Full" is the reason I'm strongly considering pressing BUY on this version. I always thought the original handling was too "look at me" and seemed like what it is - a $**@K. Turning it into a spectator shuffles the cards, spectator does the magic is genius and pure joy! Since I already own the old routine I've been trying to deconstruct it by watching the performance but it's just making me frustrated. So, I'll probably just capitulate and send you my cash. LOL! I doubt you've given any thought to selling an "upgrade" for verified owners of "Full"? $5-$10 for the new handling would be awesome! Just a thought but regardless, this version is KILLER!! Keep up the good work! |
