From the creator of "Voodoo" and "Stabbed in the Pack" comes a color changing deck and box routine that will leave your audience feeling Color Blind!

The Magician starts by removing a red deck from a red card case. After the jokes are removed and placed on the table the magician proceeds to show that all of the cards have red backs.

A card is selected and then lost back in the deck.

First the deck changes color from red to blue, that is except for the spectator's card which is now the only red card in a blue deck. Then the spectator's card changes from red to blue.

Secondly the two jokers that were placed on the table before the deck changed color are show to have red backs. In a SNAP the jokers also turn blue.

Finally the magician explains that he cannot put the blue cards in a red box... It would not look right. As he says this the card case changes from red to blue!

The cards are placed back in the case and now you are instantly reset and ready to perform the whole routine again!

Color Blind is visual magic at its best and comes complete with the special Card case, necessary gimmick and a DVD showing the performance and explanation.

You provide your own deck of Bicycle Playing Cards.

Running Time Approximately 29min

Color Blind is a DVD with a special gimmicked card box and a gimmicked card. The special card box allows for the card box to change colors as well as the deck. The DVD is very well made and easy to navigate. The routine that Matthew Johnson demonstrates is very good and well thought out. He really has thought out every move. He explains some nice subtleties that only someone who has performed this numerous times could know. He also includes some nice crediting!!

He demonstrates the effect for the camera and then goes through a very thorough explanation. I really liked how he visually changes the color of the card box at the end. Very nice!

You will not be able to hand out the card box, bummer, but if you structure the routine correctly, I don’t think it would be necessary. Since all the cards (except one) are normal, you could continue to use the deck for another effect.

For restaurant and walk around workers, the routine that Matthew demonstrates resets the effect in front of the audience. I really enjoyed the thinking of this DVD and had fun watching it.
