Change Face Ver.2 Tutorial
*To ensure the prop can be reused, please use a water-based marker when drawing.
Before the performance, flip the flap up to show the blank card. On this blank card, draw the card you wish to predict in advance. After finishing the drawing, flip the flap back to the other side, showing the card back out.
During the performance, use any forcing technique to force a playing card on the spectator (the same card as your pre-drawn prediction). Ask the spectator to use a marker to draw a facial expression on the blank face.
Hold the prop card with one hand. With the other hand, flick the upper half of the card using your finger. At this moment, the flap will flip downward, revealing the pre-written prediction, which perfectly matches the spectator’s selected card.
This prop can also be used for effects beyond playing cards. A performance flow demonstration is shown below. Once you understand the working principle of the prop, it is very easy to master. Please also refer to the following video for the complete performance sequence.
