Welcome to the incredible world of magic gimmick making.
This box set opens the doors to the hidden world of magic crafts. Consisting of a book, a deck of trick cards and all the materials needed to create gimmicks, this project is not only for experienced builders. You don't know how to split a card? Build a Flap? Imagine your own effects based on trick cards? This box set is for you.
Jordan Victoria will teach you step by step how to build Flap cards, Magnet cards, Split cards and much more. This box set gives you access to all of Jordan's experience, which he has acquired over many years. A DIY enthusiast, it is with generosity and humility that he invites you into his Fabrique, the first magical DIY box set!
"La fabrique" is not a project like the others. The book that makes up this box set, L'atelier, is the very first DIY manual for magic lovers. High-quality color photos worked down to the smallest detail, amazing hand-drawn diagrams and a "scrapbooking" type layout will allow you to better understand all the subtleties of gimmick manufacturing.
In addition to the book, the box set includes all the necessary materials (The Toolbox) to get started in building gimmicks and a deck of Bicycle trick cards (La Papeterie) allowing you to create a good number of gimmicks.
In this book, you will find 3 gimmicks explained in detail and allowing you to do 3 exceptionally bluffing effects. With Mask, you can make any prediction appear on the back of a card. The gimmick is always ready and no preparation is necessary. A revolution in this kind of effect!
You will also find the Trip gimmick which allows a truly amazing presentation of Daniel Madison's Angle Z effect! Finally, Transfer Machine 2.0 will allow you to completely change the color of the back of a card. A simple visual effect to set up.
Jordan Victoria introduces you to his gimmick factory. For 16 years now, he has been creating his own tricks whether for personal use, for a specific request from a client or for magicians. You will discover his research, his personal techniques, his notes on the material (glues, rubber bands, magnets, etc.) and his various and varied thoughts.
As we know, it can sometimes be complicated to understand the techniques of making a gimmick by simply reading a written description. This is why the book includes 26 QR Codes leading to videos made by Jordan Victoria himself and allowing a better understanding of the techniques.
