Salt Pour Magic Trick

I’ve always loved the salt pour trick, but the initial steal of the gimmick has always looked shifty. I’ve never seen any do the steal where it didn’t look like something was going on. A good solution is is a gimmicked salt shaker, so you are eliminating the steal of the gimmick. An Al Baker … Continue reading “Salt Pour Magic Trick”

I’ve always loved the salt pour trick, but the initial steal of the gimmick has always looked shifty. I’ve never seen any do the steal where it didn’t look like something was going on.

A good solution is is a gimmicked salt shaker, so you are eliminating the steal of the gimmick. An Al Baker Salt Shaker is a great way to do this…if you can find one as they are no longer manufactured.

Another option is the Vernet Etherial Salt Shaker, however I think it looks like a trick salt shaker.

Finally it hit me, why not gimmick a large glass salt shaker like the Evaporation gimmick. You’ll get a pour that looks similar to the Al Baker Salt Shaker during the pour, but will be much easier to set and operate.

I’m currently audience testing it right now an so far seems to be working…

Why Orange Colored Liquid?

I frequently get asked why the standard Evaporation gimmick is Orange SunnyD. There are several reasons why this is the main gimmicked bottle. One of these reasons is visibility. For example if you used milk in the classic Magic Milk Pitcher the white liquid would virtually disappear if you were performing against a white background. … Continue reading “Why Orange Colored Liquid?”

I frequently get asked why the standard Evaporation gimmick is Orange SunnyD. There are several reasons why this is the main gimmicked bottle. One of these reasons is visibility.

For example if you used milk in the classic Magic Milk Pitcher the white liquid would virtually disappear if you were performing against a white background. You will find white backgrounds in places like:

School Gyms: Very frequently when doing school assemblies you will have a white or light gray gym wall behind you.

Theaters: I’ve performed at many performance venues in variety shows where my show took place in front of a giant white movies screen that another act was using.

Outdoor Shows: When performing at a fair or festival usually your stage will have a canopy with a walled side behind you. The majority of these that I have encountered are white.

By using a juice that is bright colored and not a color that typically appears as the main color of a backdrop you are increasing visibility for the trick. I’m sure at some point I’ve done a show in front of a bright orange background, but those are few and far between. Of course to solve this problem 100% of the time you could simply order two Evaporation gimmicks, one in orange and one in red.

Knock Off Evaporation Bottles…

I’ve recently noticed that several magic companies overseas are knocking off my Evaporation trick. What gets me is that they are using illegally using ad copy, instructions, artwork and selling pirated versions of my DVD.

I’ve recently noticed that several magic companies overseas are knocking off my Evaporation trick. What gets me is that they are using illegally using ad copy, instructions, artwork and selling pirated versions of my DVD.

While I’d still be annoyed if they were knocking off my trick but using their own art, instructions, etc at least no one would be confused as to whether or not they are getting a legit product.  If you aren’t sure if you are here are a couple of easy ways to tell.

1. Sunny D Bottle:  If you are buying the trick from a magic dealer the gimmicked bottle will be a Sunny D bottle in either orange or red.  If it’s some other bottle and you didn’t get it from me as a custom build then it’s an illegal copy.

2. Bottle in English:  If your bottle’s wrapper is in a language other than English it’s a knock off.

Another thing that gets me is a lot of the time these aren’t even sold cheaper than what the retail for an authentic Evaporation trick costs.

Also keep in mind that if you buy an Evaporation trick that wasn’t made by me I will not provide any technical support!

Evaporation Ina Dove Act

I’ve always thought the Evaporation trick would make a great addition to a dove act. Here’s a little sequence that would run about a minute: You show three handkerchiefs empty by shaking them out one at a time. Then bunch them up and then a bottle of milk appears. You do a few flair / … Continue reading “Evaporation Ina Dove Act”

I’ve always thought the Evaporation trick would make a great addition to a dove act. Here’s a little sequence that would run about a minute:

You show three handkerchiefs empty by shaking them out one at a time. Then bunch them up and then a bottle of milk appears. You do a few flair / juggling moves with the bottle. Finally you pour a bit of the milk into your fist and toss it out into the audience and mid air it turns into a dove!

The above sequence is pretty simple all it would require is the THIS Bottle Production and a Evaporation Bottle (milk version). Then you’d need to learn to do a few flair moves with the bottle and how to do a sleeve toss with a dove.
