Remember and Forget - Dani DaOrtiz (Hofzinser Project Chapter 2) (Instant Download English and Spanish)

Spectators remembered cards impossibly transform into cards they have forgotten in a tour de force trick anyone can perform.

Dani DaOrtiz is your guide in this year-long course studying the card magic of Hofzinser, a legendary card magician from the 1800’s who has inspired generations of magicians.

In this second lesson, Dani teaches you four versions of Hofzinser’s Remember and Forget plot. This fascinating effect features transformations and revelations that will put your audience’s jaw on the floor. You are taught ways to do the effect for multiple people and one-on-one.

This is what the trick actually looks like to your audience:

Three spectators select a position in the deck and then take two cards, remember them, and then mix them up under the table. Each spectator picks one of the cards to remember, and then mixes them again. The magician then takes cards from each of the spectators and puts one of the cards on the table face down, and loses the other card in the deck. One by one, the magician reveals that the card on the table is the exact card they remembered. These cards go back down on the table, and then the magician asks the spectators to name the cards they didn’t remember. When the cards are turned face up, they have impossibly changed to the cards they “forgot.”

You don’t just learn the effects, but also the sleights that Dani uses to create these miracles and the deep thought behind how to make these miracles feel so hands-off. He shares with you why he makes the choices in his construction of the effect and the why behind all of the actions the spectator makes. This is a master class in not only effect construction but also audience management.
