Here are some routines explained in the video tutorial:
The Thought-of Card:
You present 5 cards to your spectator and ask them to mentally choose and remember one card.
After a magical gesture, one card becomes blank—it is exactly the card thought of by the spectator.
Water and Oil:
You shuffle the deck and remove 3 red cards and 3 black cards.
The red and black cards are alternated to mix them.
Magically, the red and black cards separate from each other.
After repeating the experiment, all the cards in the deck separate, with the red cards on one side and the black cards on the other.
Printing:
You start by showing a completely blank card (face and back) and then ask the spectator to name their chosen queen.
Once the card is named, you take the blank card and magically make the face of the chosen card appear.
Finally, you magically print the back of the card and can give it to the spectator to examine.
Fusion:
You have the audience select two cards, and then, thanks to a magical gesture, the two cards will fuse together.
Once they have examined the card, you magically separate the two cards back to their original state.
Change:
You show a prediction card with a different back before starting.
Then, the spectator chooses a card that does not match the prediction.
You then take their chosen card and insert it into the deck, leaving it protruding.
The card will visually change to the spectator's chosen card.
You can also give the card to the spectator to examine.
4 in 1:
You have someone freely select four cards and then reveal that they are all the four 4s in the deck (spades, hearts, clubs, and diamonds).
Then, you take a special card with a different back and a blank face and place it on top of the four cards.
After a few seconds, the card prints and the four indexes of the 4s appear.
