Book Test with a Twist...and a Slice of Lemon

Postby Beardy » Jan 13th, '10, 18:54



Hey guys! This is another book test effect of mine. It came to me one morning when I couldn;t be bothered to get out of bed, but knew I had to go to work.

That was a long time ago now.

Here is the bare bones of the effect to you! No editing, no stooges, no magnets, no gimmicked books, e.t.c e.t.c

I decided to just show the effect, rather than my presentation of it...I'm going to keep you guessing on at least one account ;)

So here I present to you my "Book Test with a Twist...on the Rocks, and with a Slice of Lemon":

Enjoy!

I do always like i when a magician looks actively bored during a trick and starts playing with his phone/looking like he could be about to nod off!! :P

I joke of course! It's very nice!!

I thought the boob test was pretty good. Not so keen on the hand waving though. A stupid person might assume you were drawing numbers in the air. Also, not sure when and where you'd do it. Might a children's book be an easier thing to work with? Or something in large print for the older reader? If the method is what I think it is, then you're going to need to find the goldilocks moment for getting someone to stop. Or you could have her stop at a random :wink: moment defined by something visual along the lines of a rope burning through.
