Studio52 has surpassed expectations with the release of The Shift Vol 2 by Ben Earl, a brilliant sequel that delves deeper into the world of magic. This meticulously crafted book is a testament to the brand's dedication to innovation and artistry, offering a refined collection of effects, techniques, and theoretical essays that will revolutionize your approach to magic.

The Shift Vol 2 goes beyond the boundaries of traditional magic, presenting three spectacular close-up effects that will leave audiences bewildered. Stepping Stones is a masterclass in misdirection, with three phases of productions and transformations that will seem impossible to comprehend. Slow Roll is an ingenious card location that defies logic, as the spectator genuinely shuffles the deck, selects a card, and returns it, only for the performer to reveal its location with uncanny precision. M-Theory is an unconventional handling of the Ambitious Card, with a selection and signature reappearing at different points in time and space, culminating in an "impossible object" that will leave spectators in awe.

In addition to these awe-inspiring effects, The Shift Vol 2 provides in-depth explorations of techniques that will elevate your magic to new heights. The Erdnase Top Palm is broken down with precision, offering new insights and expert advice on mastering this fundamental technique. The Riffle Force is reimagined with a subtle finesse, while the False Swing Cut is an astounding in-the-hands technique that looks deceptively natural. Ben Earl's expertise shines throughout, as he shares his knowledge and expertise to empower magicians of all levels.

The theoretical essays within The Shift Vol 2 are equally thought-provoking, delving into the very fabric of magic and deception. Breaking The Frame offers practical advice on enhancing the deceptiveness of card magic, while The Art of Practice presents a series of six unique training drills to refine technique. Influence and Deception is a fascinating exploration of the psychological aspects of magic, drawing from research previously reserved for military and government groups. These essays not only fascinate but also challenge readers to reevaluate their approach to magic.

The Shift Vol 2 is more than a book – it's an experience. With its high-quality, full-color, hard-backed design, this publication is a masterpiece of both form and function. Every element, from the layout to the typography and photography, has been meticulously crafted to facilitate learning and enjoyment. Ben Earl's vision for The Shift was to create a resource that inspires new conversations and attitudes towards the art of magic. This remarkable book not only delivers on that promise but also promises to transform the way you approach magic.
