This is an instructional video for gimmicks by December Boys of the Gimmick'd project. Over 40 minutes of useful info. Comes with English subtitles. The gimmicked cards could be purchased in the shop. 

We believe that modern magic should be either visual or dead. We see the future in eye candy magic and brilliant sleight-of-hand. Fortunately, our Gimmick'd project requires minimal amount of skill: all 5 gimmicks are reliable and will perform most of the 'dirty work' instead of you. Hand-crafted by our very own Vitaly Chaban, these special cards are discreet, incredibly thin look almost exactly like regular Rider Backs.

Gimmick - a trick or device intended to attract public attention. Gimmicks by December Boys are 5 special and flap cards, which will change your spectator's perception of card magic once and forever.

Impossible Change. Our favourite gimmicked card. Looks like a stop motion trick in real life. A card changes it's back colour in a snap, even the camera couldn't catch the moment of the transformation. You can utilize this gimmick in full routines, like Chicago Opener, or simply perform the colour change while bamboozled spectators will try hard to burn you without success. Available in colours: Red (colour change from blue to red card) and Blue (colour change from red to blue).

Prediction. Turn gibberish symbols into a clear prediction within a blink of an eye. That prediction could be a spectator's card, thought-of word, name, any symbol or logo. These gimmicks are shipped without any writings. So it's up to you to decide what should be drawn on these cards. Become an open-minded artist and don't limit your imagination. These are available in colours: Red and Blue (we recommend red since black sharpie on them is more visible).

Bite Card. It's time to feed your hunger! A classic effect of bite out card and its restoration. You can make believe you're biting the card of the spectator or show it as a separate effect.

Penetration. Another one classics: a pencil, straw, cigarette goes thru a playing card. Spectator witnesses the object going through without leaving a hole. This magic trick could be shown both with spectator's card and with a random card, though it will require some misdirection in the first case.

Moving Hole. That's a very old and popular principle of a hole moving across the back of a playing card. It seems impossible, but with a bare finger movements you'll be able to make the hole vanish and reappear on the other side of the card. Twice. And then as a bonus - you can transfer that hole to another card.

In this video you will learn how to use the gimmicked cards properly, how to fix them on your own, which basic effects and bonus ideas could be implemented. In particular we have come up with a couple of dope special effects with Impossible Change & Prediction gimmicks. If jumping out card and Rising Card tricks were available before only on some popular magic sites for $5-25, we have these effects as a free bonus in our instructional video. Besides, when purchasing all 5 gimmicks, you get the tutorial for free.

All gimmicks feature revisited classic principles of work. We would like to credit such creators as Hondo Chen, Professor R. Kunard, David Jade.
