World's Greatest Magic: Oil & Water - DVD

\n

Das grundlegende Konzept des Kartenergieeffekts, den wir heute als Öl und Wasser kennen, geht zurück in die 1940er Jahre und einen Trick von Walter Gibson. Es war Ed Marlo, der das Effect mit dem Namen "Öl und Wasser" bekleidete (und wahrscheinlich auch die meisten Methoden für diesen Effect entwickelte).

\n

Bill Malone beginnt mit zwei Methoden; die erste, eine Erfindung von Ed Marlo, ist technisch herausfordernd, aber wunderbar visuell. Die zweite Methode, von Dave Solomon geschaffen, nutzt einige hervorragende Nuancen.

\n

David Regal macht es nicht nur durch Farbe, sondern auch durch die Rückseite der Karten magisch. Larry Jennings präsentiert eine einfache, aber sehr theatralische Version. Michael Ammar führt und lehrt Roy Waltons klassischen Trick, bei dem die Farben sich nicht nur trennen, sondern in vollkommen andere Karten umwandeln. Dan Fleshman nutzt lediglich die Assen zu wunderbarem Erfolg.

\n

Josh Jay präsentiert ein Hybridroutine mit Methoden von verschiedenen Erfindern, das Ihren Publikum die Augen aufwecken wird. Darwin Ortiz schließt mit seinem passend benannten Effect, bei dem nicht nur die Karten in zwei kleinen Paketen sich trennen, sondern auch die übrigen Karten im vollständig durch Zuschauer gemischten Kartendeck.

\n

Das Öl-und-Wasser-Erfolg hat oft als etwas angesehen, das nur Magiern interessiert, aber Sie werden schnell feststellen, dass dies ein falscher Eindruck ist, wenn Sie die Reaktionen sehen, die diese Magier bei ihrem Publikum erzielen. Die größte Herausforderung, die Sie mit dem Material auf dieser DVD haben, wird sein, zu entscheiden, welche Methode Sie Ihrem Programm zuerst hinzufügen.

The basic plot of the card effect that we know today as Oil and Water can be traced back to the 1940s and a Walter Gibson trick from the pages of The Jinx. It was Ed Marlo who attached the name "Oil and Water" to the effect (in addition to most likely creating the greatest number of methods for the effect.) The premise of the trick is maddeningly simple: black and red playing cards, usually in small packets, continually separate despite the magician's best efforts to mix them.

On this DVD, you'll see an amazing variety of ways to accomplish this easy-to-follow and very magical-looking trick. Bill Malone begins with two methods; the first, an Ed Marlo creation, while technically challenging. is wonderfully visual while the second, created by Dave Solomon, uses some superb subtleties to accomplish the effect. David Regal manages to magically separate cards not only by face, but by back color while Larry Jennings presents a simple yet very theatrical version. Michael Ammar performs and teaches Roy Walton's classic trick where the colors not only separate but turn into completely different cards while Dan Fleshman uses just the Aces to wonderful effect. Josh Jay presents a hybrid routine with methods from a number of creators that will have your audience's eyes popping while Darwin Ortiz finishes up with his aptly named effect where not only do the cards in two small packets separate but so do the rest of the cards in the deck that was completely shuffled by a spectator.

The Oil and Water effect has been dismissed by armchair performers as something that only interests other magicians but you'll soon find that to be a spurious claim when you see the reactions these performers get from their audiences. The biggest problem you'll have with the material on this DVD is choosing which one to add to your act first!

Running Time Approximately: 1hr 44min
