Each card has an image, theme and famous quote. 10 hours of online tutorial with some of the brightest minds in magic is also included, making this a master class in mentalism with card magic.
Each of the professional level effects taught by Craig Petty, Pete Turner, Peter Nardi and Ian Rowland are reputation makers. 'What Peter Turner shares is literally worth the price of the project on its own. Period.' Craig Petty
This is card magic that loses the stigma of playing cards and becomes something very personal. The deck becomes a key to making deep, emotional connections with your audience.
Mentalism with playing cards can be hard for your audience to connect with. BUT by changing the card values for emotive words and phrases you instantly plug into to their emotions.
Designed by Phill Smith... he's built in a devious marked system that's woven into the back design of each card. A secret system that only you can read. In one swift glance you'll know the following six pieces of information:
- Emotion Word
- Black & White or Colour
- The image
- MOAB Word
- The next Emotion Card in Stack
- The Quote and Author
It wouldn't be a Craig Petty Project if we didn't line up a dream team of collaborators. First, we have Peter Nardi. World renowned mentalist, famed for his ability to create commercial yet stunning mentalism that anyone can do but no one can figure out. And he's here to share with you his favourite tricks that he performs using EVOKE. If that wasn't enough, Craig called in every favour and pulled every string he could to get Peter Turner sit down for a few hours and share a gold mine of knowledge, ideas and tricks! Many mentalists consider Peter Turner to be one of the best living mentalists and certainly, on the Mount Rushmore of mentalism creators. What Peter Turner shares is literally worth the price of the project on its own. Period.
For a lot of people, this may be their first foray into mind reading. EVOKE is the perfect stepping stone to try proper mentalism. Peeking a card is easy but maybe the thought of cold reading might be daunting... we've got you. We brought in the man that literally wrote the book on cold reading... Ian Rowland. Don't ask us how but Craig managed to sit down with Ian Rowland at The Magic Circle UK Headquarters and film a 2 hour Maestro Class on cold (and warm) reading, specifically using the EVOKE deck, the likes of which you'll have never seen before.
We won't tell you any more about it. This very, very special addition to the project is reserved only for those who own EVOKE.
