Getting Into Shape

Two business cards are removed and four basic shapes are drawn on each card, filling the blank side of each business card.

The performer secretly makes a mark inside one of the shapes.

The participant, taking the pen or pencil, attempts to intuit which shape the mark was placed in and where the mark was positioned within that shape.

When happy with her decision she makes a mark in this exact shape and location. The performer’s card is turned over to reveal that the participant was perfectly correct in their intuition.

PLEASE NOTE: You will require a very common mentalism gimmick in order to perform this effect, this gimmick is not included.

‘Getting Into Shape’ was originally published as part of ‘The Book Of Lies’ in November 2010. If you like the effect and want it, along with the other great effects, then you may want to buy the book.
