Marco The Magician: Any Leaf Would Do!

I am writing this on the way to work on a saturday! By golly do we spend alot of time on work and too few hours on our passion! Well last friday i was fiddling around with one of magics most utilized utility gimmicks and i thought wow i think i can do some pretty nifty things with this.

I came up with this effect after watching cinch by shaun robison, a piece of paper is transformed into real money right before the spectators eyes. i thought wow, that could definitely work. However his method calls for perhaps some preperation, so does mine however as for me every thing can be examined the paper and the money. So i have a thing for money plants as they are so easy to keep and i came up with this effect.

Now i understand through feedback from my friends and family members that it was not close up enough, its one of those videos where i simply shot it a few times and i was done. i will definetly want to shoot a close up video once i get the method in place correctly. I am working on it !!

In the meantime, my effect is simple, imagine your out in the park and a leaf catches your attention, i think its great for walk around magic. Grab a leaf, any leaf would do and then transform this leaf into a bill of some type. It works with any currency and can be repeated with careful preparation. So i hope you like this one and do let me know what you think of it.
