We are proud to announce our partnership with the most exquisite underground card master of all time. For the first time in his career over 35, Armando Lucero decided to make public the first level of his highly guarded workshop. By focusing on psychology and magic theory, Armando shares his personal thoughts and concepts as they apply to the sleight of hand and magic with playing cards.
Concepts, however, can be applied to any type of magic. Paper Cuts is the culmination of what Armando offers to level 1 students and beyond art. Paper Cuts is a series of different routines that Armando specially built to teach lessons on interior thought behind magic and composition of magic performance pieces.
Divided into 12 different routines, including some additional variations and concepts, Armando not only shares ready performance pieces for a professional show, but also reflections and ideas on how to improve all your magic.
Faq
What is Paper Cuts?
The series of Paper Cuts videos is not the workshop, which is a complete online study or in person in magic and science beyond the scope of this exord. However, this is an overview of the way of dealing with Armando to serve as an introduction before the workshop; Like a glance through a window in a large ship's cabin on the ocean. But a notable look anyway.
It is an exhibition of conventional equipment omnipresent specially designed for a modern and informed audience. Regarding accessible historical published works, it is therefore an opportunity to learn in the security of what is familiar.
What type of equipment is taught on this project?
Paper Cuts, as its name suggests, is entirely made up of magic cards. Each DVD has a series of routines designed for work and performance in the real world. In addition, each effect is accompanied by an explanation and a discussion. In discussions, the effects are explained from a technical, theatrical and philosophical point of view. There is also a great care taken with each routine to teach an important lesson on performance and how to apply these techniques and lessons to other routines in your show.
What is the link between Paper Cuts and the Coin Managery and Pasteboard Devices workshops that Armando Lucero offers in private?
Paper Cuts is a completely different workshop and does not share any common effect or technique with these other private workshops. Philosophy, theatrical technique and advice are however consistent with all the workshops that Armando teaches, including Paper Cuts.
