Pack to Reality! by Mackenzie Sol and PAS Magic

Created by: Mackenzie Sol, PAS Magic

Pack to Reality! is a stunning close-up card magic effect where a playing card transforms from a two-dimensional image into a real, three-dimensional object that spectators can handle. In performance, a spectator selects a card, which then appears as a picture on a phone screen, printed advertisement, or similar flat surface. With a magical gesture, the depicted card appears to peel away from that surface and materialize as a physical playing card in the magician's hands, creating a powerful visual and tactile illusion of bringing a virtual image into reality. This effect is perfect for close-up and walk-around magic, requiring no difficult sleight of hand and coming as a self-contained routine with all necessary gimmicks or props. Buyers should know this is a Mackenzie Sol and PAS Magic creation that offers a clean, visual transformation ideal for social media clips or as a surprising climax in performances.
