A tried and true method that is simple, deceptive, and very well covered. One that doesn't use a peek, and doesn't require that you memorize anything. A routine and script that justifies each and every part of the trick with very little in the way of props.

Scripted #16: Zodiac and Mom's FavoriteLarry Brodahl A parlor or stage trick with a single method, but two vastly different scripts using totally different props. Fun and fooling.
Two tricks in one. Each with nearly identical handling but widely different effects.
In ZODIAC, you show a spectator pictures, one at a time, letting the spectator say "stop" whenever they wish. Their selection turns out to have been predicted in a message hanging in full view of the audience.
In MOM'S FAVORITE, you show the spectators playing cards, one at a time, again letting a spectator say "stop". Their selection turns out to have been predicted in a message... | ★★★★★ $15 to wish listPDF |

"Ognib" is "Bingo" in reverse, is a method also known under the name "Magic Matrix" (see Martin Gardner).
A complete script, handling, and a spreadsheet calculator. Handlings included for stage, parlor and impromptu.
The magician shows a handful of printed numeric grids. The magician then has 4 spectators decide on one of the grids. Using the chosen grid, they then pick 4 numbers from the grid. The 4 numbers that were chosen - when added together - totals up... | ★★★★★ $12 to wish listPDF |
Scripted #18: A Study in Scarlet and SableLarry Brodahl 3 scripts - 3 different effects - 2 impromptu - for all performing venues. A fun exploration of the GILBREATH principle that not only entertains, but also hides the methodology.
For all performing venues.
Most mathematical tricks suffer from a multitude of challenges, and the Gilbreath principle is no different.

- why the cards aren't shuffled
- what the point of the trick is
- how to hide when the cards change columns

Scripted #21: Add a NumberLarry Brodahl A routine and script that (with an assist from Mel Mellers), transforms a rather dry piece of mentalism into a fun and entertaining piece of magic.
The plot of the Add-A-Number effect doesn't lend itself to the magical performer, as the audience knows that they're watching tricks, not psychic phenomenon, which means that the presentation of "seeing the future" isn't as effective as it could be.
Plus, the method is closely tied to the revelation. How could you predict a number unless you somehow knew what everyone would write or you switched the numbers?
This script - with a huge... | $12 to wish listPDF |

- an act where the assistant gets the credit for doing the trick.

Scripted #27: TriumphLarry Brodahl Two complete scripts and very simple handling for the Triumph effect, which not only fools people, but entertains them immensely. No difficult sleights, no gaffs, no problems.
Many versions of Triumph are either complicated and hard to follow, or gaffed, or even a knuckle buster.
Well, the author of How To Write A Script shows how he used his methodology to write 2 different scripts that explains and entertains with the Triumph effect, while technically putting it well within the reach of every magician. This ebook gives you every line, joke, piece of timing, setup and nuance of the routine.

Scripted #28: Lassoing a CardLarry Brodahl How to lasso a chosen card. Complete methodology as well as script and performance video included. Full performance rights allowed.
It is a version that makes sense. The magician explains that as a child at summer vacation, he learned how to lasso mosquitoes, and he got so good at it, that he learned to actually snap the knot for the lasso onto the rope mid-air. And he thought he'd turn that skill into a trick.
The magician has a card selected. This card is returned to the deck and shuffled by the spectator. After some byplay, the magician drops the cards into a paper bag, puts one end... | $12 to wish listPDF & MP4 |

- why Clippo fails to get a good reaction
- how to make Clippo
- the script
- even some of the script writing and design process followed
This trick is suitable for parlor or stage.

Scripted #40: Bigger and BetterLarry Brodahl A more magical version of the trick "Bigger" found in the Mark Wilson Course in Magic
A paper bag gets inspected, and 3 cards are chosen and put on display on the volunteer's body. A different deck is shuffled and dropped into the paper bag, and the spectator shakes the bag to shuffle the cards. Reaching into the bag, and without looking, 2 of the matching cards are found. The third card – the bigger card - is found because it is a jumbo card.
A little arts and crafts are required.

How To Write A ScriptLarry Brodahl How to write a script that entertains and reaches your audience. Topics include BRAINSTORMING PLOTS as well as ANALYZING THE TRICK FOR WEAKNESSES and many others..
One of the most neglected and misunderstood aspects of performing is: What do I say - how do I say it - and why do I say it? In other words - SCRIPTING!

Scripted #12: Color Changing SilksLarry Brodahl A script and performance video that is based on the work of Ron Wilson and makes the Color Changing Silks a practical and mysterious trick, loaded with laughs.
One of the more difficult tasks facing magicians is coming up with scripts – of any sort. And the color changing silks, using the hand dye tube, makes it even more intimidating since there are multiple steals, hand to hand transfers to make, etc. All without getting caught!
But, coming up with a script that makes sense of the handling, preserves the mystery, gets laughs, and is a perfect opener...well, that's really difficult.

Scripted #13: The Dictionary TrickLarry Brodahl An easy-to-make and easy to perform version of a book reading test. You can not only tell them the word they're thinking of, but you can even tell them how many characters are in the word - and it's all easy. No forcing.
One of the more difficult tasks facing magicians is coming up with scripts - of any sort. And explaining why someone is picking a word from a dictionary so that you can read their mind is - at best - difficult.
Well, the author of How To Write A Script used his methodology to write a script that successfully explains - and conceals the secret - to perform the dictionary test. He even explains... | $10 to wish listPDF |
Scripted #14: The Penrose KnotLarry Brodahl The Penrose knot has never been clearly explained until now. A strange effect that is not only made fun by the supplied script, but an "in the hands" tying method is revealed.
The magician ties a rope into a chain of 30 knots. Each knot appears identical.
The spectator grabs one of the knots. The magician now pulls on the ends of the rope, and every knot dissolves - except - the knot the spectator selected. That knot proves to be a common overhand knot.
The Penrose knot was published in Karl Fulves' Self Working Rope Tricks, but the description was less-than-clear, and the effect is quite strange.

Anyone that's ever read Tarbell has run into the Shell Wand.

The 4 Bean trick is a classic, but the moves and the motivation are odd and unexplained.

Scripted #33: Ring and RopeLarry Brodahl A multi-phase ring and rope routine using only a regular rope and ring.
Most ring and rope routines don't really look like magic. They look like the rope is looped and threaded and re-threaded, and otherwise fiddled with to account for the "magic". Not this routine. Simple. Easy to perform.
Almost surrounded. No gimmicks, no gaffs. Everything's examinable, and nothing is added or taken away.
A rope - and a ring. And a killer script.
The author of How To Write A Script reveals his 'Ring and Rope' routine, which he has used to close his act, and is nothing but visual, clean magic. This ebook gives you every... | ★★★★★ $10 to wish listPDF & MP4 |
Scripted #34: Thumb Thing FunLarry Brodahl An age old penetration of your own thumb using a string or chain has been revisited and reworked into a clever and deceptive trick. Simple. Easy to perform. Surrounded. No gimmicks, no gaffs.
A classic of magic we all learned early on and never do, as it's not a very good trick. Until now. The trick has been transformed into a very cute and clever brain teaser with nothing more than a little modified handling and some clever scripting.

Scripted #36: Save Me MagiLarry Brodahl
If you do any type of an "instant-stooge" trick using cards (for example Karrel Fox's "Gift of the Magi"), you know there's a chance that the volunteer will name the wrong card. This is an "out" for that situation. There are no real gimmicks, no difficult handling, and it almost instantly resets. The out is a non-R/S version of the Brainwave Deck based on an idea by Martin Peirce.
NOTE: This can be used as a standalone effect also.
