My Head Hurts by Vinny Sagoo - Book

Beschreibung

Are you interested in learning magic, or simply curious about the art of it? If so, a brand new book from Neo Magic might be exactly what you’re looking for. This high-quality hardback, coffee-table-sized book features 30 magic effects from the mind of creator and author Vinny Sagoo.

As I am part of the magic community, I know Vinny well and I already own many of his effects. This new book brings together routines that can be performed by magicians of all levels, from beginners through to seasoned professionals. The explanations are straightforward and easy to follow, making it an excellent learning resource and a potentially great gift as well.

Each effect is presented in its own chapter of the book, beginning with a striking graphic artwork. The text is clear and well-sized, accompanied by very helpful photographs. This makes it easy to prop the book open and follow along while learning the routines. While I’m already very familiar with Vinny’s style and effects, those who prefer video learning will be pleased to know the book also includes a link to additional online material where Vinny talks through a couple of selected effects. More video content is expected to be added over time and is promised.

Each routine also includes a short background story along with presentation ideas, performance tips, and sometimes alternative handling suggestions. The magic featured is primarily mentalism, alongside some mathematical magic and card effects. The book includes both brand new material and some of Vinny’s best-known routines developed over the past 25 years. As a result, some effects were new to me while others were familiar favourites such as The Perfect Match.
