Introducing THE best way to build a card magic foundation. Twenty years ago Roberto Giobbi, card magic's most distinguished author, wrote Card College, a series of books now considered THE Bibles on card magic. This DVD teaches a full collection of false shuffles and cuts, all curated by Roberto himself. 

You won't just learn all the wonderful and important sleights in card magic, you'll also learn the fine points, finesses, and subtleties of each one, so that you carry out the techniques the way connoisseurs do: with invisible precision.

We release a small amount of original content each year, but Card Magic Masterclass will be an enduring resource - a legacy, perhaps - to magicians for years to come. Thanks to Roberto Giobbi, magicians have an at-home academy to master ALL the important techniques in card magic. It's time to take your card magic seriously. It's time to start your Card Magic Masterclass.

Running time: 2 hour 15 minutes approximately

Customer reviews for Card Magic Masterclass - False Shuffles and Cuts

Dave
Roberto Giobbi provides excellent instruction. I greatly appreciate the psychological details for achieving maximum impact with the sleights. As expected, this material overlaps information found in his Card College books, but the videos allow you to "experience" the cuts and shuffles so the expected impact may be understood. Watching this expert of magic perform these sleights is enjoyable; even though you know the action is false, your eyes cannot tell the difference. This video helps you understand the goal you should be working towards.
Laura Bautista
What a luxury to be able to count on the great maestro Giobbi for more than 2 intense hours through the more than useful, vital, world of false cuts and shuffles. Any magician who includes card numbers in his routines will need to master these techniques that Giobbi teaches in a clear, didactic and simple way, with numerous repetitions and short shots to eliminate doubts and make learning simple. Thank you, thank you and thank you!
David
Anything from Mr. Giobbi is great! I sat down on a Saturday morning and went through this lesson. It was very helpful, even the tips on some of the cuts and shuffles I was familiar with helped me advance my work.
Hernan
Simply put, a MUST.

This is a true card magic masterclass! Thanks V for making this available. Such a luxury to have the maestro talking about the mechanics and even the details of the sound of the movements. Beauty!

Watching him doing the moves together with his explanations is really priceless and insightful. After some practice I have improved many shuffles/cuts and feel much more confident about some of them that was really struggling with. The best is that there is something for everyone here (beginners to pros).

Enough said.

If your learn better from video format over that of books this download is great. His combination overhand shuffle I put directly into use. I later saw Juan Tamariz uses it very deceptively also. This is a great asset for false shuffle work.

I don’t know why, but there’s something about Giobbi’s handling of these false shuffles and cuts that finally made them easy enough for even me to learn — and as a beginner-intermediate hobbyist, too. Yes, you have to practice them but it’s sure worth the time & effort.
Jeff
If you’re remotely serious about card work you need a false shuffle and a control (ask Matt Schulien’s ghost). Take your pick from this EXCELLENT selection…!!
Oscar
Even as an amateur, I found this download really helpful for improving my card work. Watching Giobbi demonstrate false shuffles and cuts made moves that used to feel impossible much clearer. I haven’t had the chance to practice everything yet, but seeing the techniques up close and hearing his explanations about timing, mechanics, and even the sound of the movements gave me a lot of ideas. I’m looking forward to putting these techniques into practice and slowly building more confidence and control with my cards.

This was a wonderful download. Giobbi is a wonderful teacher and he really knows his card magic. this instructional download was really worth the price. This was one of Vanishing Inc. Black Friday sale items. False shuffles and Cuts are great to have in a card magician's box of weapons. With Mr. Giobbi's help my card magic has gotten much better. With this information you can now go back to books that you have obtain and apply these methods to other card magic that would require a False Shuffle. With a little bit of work on your part your miracles will become better. How do you practice Fales shuffles and Cuts without someone showing real world applications. this download has been a true blessing. With the ease of Mr.Giobbi's teachings you will be very comfortable learning without stress and most of all become a better magician and also practice better.

You can't go wrong with Roberto Giobbi and this is no exception.
I've always liked his teaching. I like the way he talks and I could listen to him for hours no matter the subject.
This material is great and brings so many possibilities. To me as an aspiring hobbyist this download offers so much more than any single trick could.
Can
It's good. Wish it had over the shoulder camera view though. That would make learning so much easier
