Alexis Touchard – Transparency (Gimmick Not Included)

Transparency is the association of two magicians and creators, Alexis Touchard and Axel Vergnaud, you will learn in the online instructions three main routines that are super visual in which a poker chip becomes clear, you can find the corner of the spectator’s card, remove the color of the poker chip to find it on the back of the spectator’s signed card and many other ideas and effects.



The First routine



You show a random card and hit the poker chip with the face of this card, the poker chip becomes clear visually and the color of the poker chip is now on the face of the card. Ideal for social media, it’s a fast visual effect.



The Second routine



The spectator choses a card, loses it in the deck and the magician asks him to imagine himself tearing or cutting a corner of his card and throwing it in the air, then you show the poker chip on your hand and pretend to catch the corner in the air and put it in the poker chip but we can’t see it inside so you propose to fix that with magic so you wave your hand above the poker chip and it becomes clear with the corner of his card stuck inside , you go inside the deck and indeed on his card it lacks the corner, moreover it matches with the corner inside the clear poker chip.



You could stop here but you can go ahead with a bonus effect, you put the poker chip with the corner in front of his eyes and you remove the corner from the poker chip.



The Third routine



The spectator choses a card and signs it. The card is lost in the deck. You put the poker chip on his hand and riffle the deck on it and the poker chip visually becomes totally clear in HIS hand. You explain to him that you steel the color in order to find his card and you spread the deck and on the back of a card there is the colored design of the poker chip turn it face up that’s his signed card! Then you take the clear poker chip you put the back of the card on it and the colored design comes back on the poker chip and it’s not on the back of the spectator’s signed card anymore.



Ideal for close-up and social media



Easy to do!
