Tarbell 57: Slate Mysteries Part 2 (Instant Download)Amazing Slate Tricks, with no Chalkboard Required.
Although the tricks in this lesson are technically Slate tricks, you won't see a traditional chalkboard in any of them.
Instead, you'll learn how to apply the original principles to a variety of other (more common) items. Plus, you'll get new methods to open up a world of possibilities.
First, you will learn a brand new way to make any message instantly print on both sides of a blank greeting card simply slipped into an unprepared envelope.
Then, you'll learn how to use two completely ungimmicked pieces of foamcore (thoroughly shown) to produce an impossible answer to the audience's equation.
And, you will combine a few concepts to not only determine a randomly chosen word in someone's mind (letter-by-letter), but also to make those letters appear.
Then, you get all the work on the classic-of-all-classic slate tricks to reveal a chosen card. Don't overlook this one. It still plays as strong as ever.
Using a couple of party plates and a post-it note, you will learn a funny (and impressive) way to make a souvenir drawing of a chosen card.
Next, we update an outdated joke retaining the unexpected humor, but adding philosophical thought and cultural awareness... plus, a crazy-cool new method.
And finally, we finish up with a charmingly-silly gag with an unexpected pay-off, perfect for emcee and comedy work, and super-easy to do.
Enjoy performing these routines, but don't tell anyone they're Slate tricks, they'll never know, and they'll think you're the cleverest magician they've ever seen.
