In this lecture, Apollo will teach the techniques and routines listed below:
Deck production- A silk handkerchief is produced from a piece of flash string then a card box with a full deck is produced with the flick of the handkerchief.
Card Fanning- One-handed circular fan and a one handed "S" fan. Split Fans with some personal touches.
Single Productions- The right and the wrong way to do it.
Boomerang Card- A lot of fun and definitely an attention grabber.
Toss-up Fan Production and the Boomerang Fan Production Variation- A single card is thrown in the air and turns into a fan of cards as it is caught.
Front Hand Split, the Perfect Production and the Tenkai Vanish with Aquitment.
Cards From Mouth.
Routines:
Bank'd- A chance for the spectators to take home some prizes but unfortunately, they are booby prizes except for one! The prizes consist of a "mini ziploc bag", a quarter, a rubber band, "wishing paper", a business card and a $100 bill. Of course with the magician wanting to keep the final prize, he ends up with the $100 bill.
Celebrity Mental Choice- The magician gives a person another chance to win the hundred so he asks the person to choose one of five celebrity photos from a game spinner. They can choose to spin it or simply point the arrow to the celebrity of their choice. Whichever one they pick, the magician presents a prediction that has been made before the start of the show. Of course, the magicians still keeps the $100 bill.
Lickety Splits- Using one of the prizes from the last routine, the quarter this is a highly visual coin splitting routine. Once 4 quarters are produced, he returns the quarter to the spectator which now flows into the next routine.
A.R.C.A. (Apollo Riego's Coins Across)- Coins audibly and visibly travel from the hand into an empty card case one at a time.
Reboot- Apollo's version of a Paul Harris classic known as Reset.
Triplicity- This is a real reputation maker. 3 predictions are made within a deck of cards ahead of time but spectators are asked to choose 3 different cards. It is their choice whether they want to hide, keep, or give away each selection. All predictions match with each card saying hide, keep, and give.
Deliberation Papercut- An extremely sharp razor blade sealed inside one of 6 envelopes. A volunteer is asked to hold each envelope out and the magician starts to clap and crush each envelope attempting to avoid the blade. A truly nerve racking game of Russian Roulette. $100 Bill Russian Roulette variation can be used with the same plot except the envelopes are cut with a pair of scissors.
