Materialization by Pierre Velarde
Your phone shows a picture. And then that picture becomes a real, physical object right in front of them. Not a reveal. Not a prediction on a screen. An actual object, materialised from a digital image, happening live in their hands.
Materialization is a brand new method from Pierre Velarde that bridges the gap between the digital world and the physical one in a way that no audience has ever seen before. The core concept is simple and immediately understandable to anyone: you show a picture on your phone, and that picture materialises into reality. The impact is instant, the reaction is enormous, and the method is so clean that performing it 360 degrees is not just possible, it is encouraged.
The gimmick installs on your phone in three to five seconds, sits completely invisible to the human eye once in place, and can stay on your phone all day without any impact on normal use. Preparing each effect takes between five and ten seconds. This is not a prop that disrupts your workflow. It lives in your pocket and is ready when you are.
Six complete effects are included, covering a wide range of performance styles and situations. A digital prediction where the image on your phone predicts a freely made choice. A digital teleportation routine. A torn and restored card effect using your phone screen as the stage, with a bonus 2.0 version that pushes the concept even further. A digital business card effect that makes for one of the most memorable and impressive personal introductions any performer can make. And a cash materialization routine that works with both dollars and euros, turning a digital image of currency into the real thing.
Pierre also teaches three different methods for materialising your own custom pictures and animations, so the system can be adapted to your own material, your own branding, and your own creative vision. If you want to build a completely unique version of any of these effects around something personal to you or your audience, the tools to do that are all included.
Works with any smartphone. Beginner-friendly, fast to set up, and ready to perform straight out of the box.
