 Hey everybody, welcome back to Magic Orthodoxy. My name is David and this is a Magic Review. Hey, today we're going to look at smooth prediction from the other brothers and vanishing incorporated. Alright, so what is smooth prediction? It's a prediction effect, obviously. It's also kind of a card-to-pocket trick. So it's a card-to-pocket prediction effect that you can do with one or multiple spectators. You want to see what it looks like? This is it. Smooth predictions is a fantastic new card effect. It allows a spectator to pick a card, think of a card, look at a card, whatever you want them to do. And it allows you to have a written prediction predicting what they would choose in any location you'd like. Under their shoe, in their wallet, in your pockets, anywhere you'd like. Hey guys, I'm Daryl, Alicia, Shay. Nice to meet you guys. Hi. Hi. Alright, so we're doing a magic trick. Okay. And I'm going to try to influence you guys. I've written something down to prove that that's what I'm doing. I knew kind of what was going to happen. I've written something down for both of you guys. But first, you guys are going to make choices. You're going to make a conscious choice. At least you're going to feel like you're not being influenced to be a full-on free choice. And you're going to make an unconscious choice. Like a subconscious choice. Fair enough. And we'll get to the other side. So first, you're going to see all the cards are different. And you're just going to name one that you see in here. So anyone that you see in there, name it. Out loud? Yeah, yeah, go ahead. King of clubs. King of clubs. Okay. And you're sure. Yeah. Did that feel like a free choice? Yeah. It did. Okay, so I want you to hold onto the King of clubs for me. Alright. So you're going to actually make a subconscious choice. You're just going to cut the cards into my hands. I'm going to hand you the cards. You just cut some into my hand anywhere you'd like. Okay. So take the cards and just cut them into my hand. Which is me separate. Yeah, just any of them. Perfect. Now go ahead, take a look at the card you cut to. And I don't want to see show. So at least I don't want to see. You got it? Mm-hmm. Perfect. So now you guys have both picked cards. And you can keep your card out if you want to. Or either way. So now I told you that I wrote something down. And you feel like you had a free choice. You could cut anywhere in here. Right? And you could have named anyone. Yes. But look, corresponding to where we were standing. I put something. I wrote it down in my front pocket. There's nothing in my hands here. And you actually see that I wrote it down in my front pocket. It says you will choose the king clothes. Okay. And there's nothing obviously in my pocket. It's because it's a tight pants. You know, and for you, right over here. I wrote down you will choose the true space. What's the difference? Are we? We go. I couldn't switch. I couldn't change it. I actually put the prediction underneath your foot. So look under your shoe right now. All right. So that was the other brothers. You might remember I just recently did a in your hands review for them. It was called hands down that I enjoyed a lot. You should check that out as well. All right. So a couple of questions we always ask about all of our magic reviews. And the first of which is what is in the box? What's in the box? You get the deck of cards. So you need an entire deck. Okay. It's a full deck of cards. So you're getting that. And then you're getting the download code to a video for a video that you can't download. You watch it online. Okay. You have to watch it online. You can't download it. Is it what I thought? Since it's the other brothers, I was really expecting it to be a mentalism effect. And I was expecting it to be highly creative. And you get both of those in spades. Other than that, I really didn't know how they were doing what they were doing. So I didn't really have any speculations. And even if I did, I wouldn't have guessed it because when I got it, I was like, oh, like I wouldn't have even thought of this. It is a familiar thing, but I wasn't expecting this method. How are the angles? The angles on this are really good. I won't say they're 100% because obviously it's a card to pocket. So you will have to do the same kind of thing you would have to do if you were doing a regular card to pocket or a card to wallet. You have to do that move. Okay. That move. But other than that, the angles are good. Can it be inspected? The deck of cards cannot be inspected. Okay. It is a gimmicked, fully gimmicked, fully gaffed deck. So I would say you'd ring this in at the end of doing another series of card tricks where you're able to do a deck switch. This is a red, wider back deck, so no one should suspect anything. So what's the overall quality and production value of the video? It's all studio shot. It's like some of the other brother's videos where the two of them, Darryl and Darryl, are standing in front of a screen. Okay. And you do have a camera that's live. It pans up and down and gives you the shots you need. There is a studio performance, but there are no live performances. The live performances are all in the advertisement. So if you want to see the live performance, just watch the ad copy and it's in that. Is it well made? There's two parts to this. So the deck itself is a bicycle product. Okay. So the cards are well made. The box is well made. It's a bicycle brand. You can't go wrong. There's another element where there's some arts and crafts. You have to do the prediction. So the writing, that handwriting, that's on you. So you have to do it in your handwriting or you just pick somebody that has better handwriting than you. How much practice does it require? This is a very easy trick and I'm going to tell you the method is very familiar to many of us. And you probably own a deck of cards that already has this method built into it. So you probably already have some experience with it. As far as the teaching goes in conjunction with the practice, he's going to teach you more than one way to do this. So he's going to teach you how to do it with one spectator in one pocket, two spectators in two pockets. He will show you a very simple card to wallet and he will show you a card to envelope. Most of that 22 minute video is envelope construction. So even though they didn't show you the card to envelope in the trailer, most of the video is devoted to you building this gimmick envelope and then the routine surrounding the prediction going inside of a sealed envelope. There's also one other trick where he makes the card appear under the spectator's shoe. How much setup and reset is there? There's a one-time setup and your reset is automatic. Positives, one of the positives to smooth prediction. This is a wonderful no-force prediction effect that uses no cribs and no indexes perform it for as many spectators as you have pockets. Negatives, one of the negatives to this. The only thing I didn't like was that I couldn't download the video. I just usually expect that if I purchase the trick, I get to keep the effect and the video. And I know people do this now so that videos aren't stolen or swapped or shared. I get it. But it's kind of one of those things that it's really hard to police anyway. So I was a little disappointed that I couldn't download the video. Is it worth your money? It's only $25. $25 you get the full deck of cards and 22 minutes of video. It's totally worth your money. The other brothers are really super creative. I can't wait to see more products from them. Who would like this? Mentalists, walk around, people that like to do card magic but want to throw a little bit of mentalism in there. I think we definitely like smooth prediction from the other brothers. Alright, so that is my review for smooth prediction from the other brothers and vanishing it incorporated. I want to thank Murphy's Magic for allowing me to have this trick so that I can do the review for you. And if you want to purchase it for yourself, you can find it from one of your favorite Murphy's Magic retailers. Thanks. Bye.
