This is my absolute favorite DVD set ever produced by Penguin Magic. It teaches you how to get off
your butt and onto your feet and performing.
On volume 2, there wasn't as much
"instruction" going on, as there was business management and other PROFESSIONAL advice. Tom has been
doing this for years and it really shows.
If you want to really learn the secrets behind
starting out professionally, this is the DVD to get. Not only did he teach us how to become a full
time professional and transition right into it, but we learn a few tricks
Now, the tricks
aren't the greatest and you can pick these up with little effort. Theres a mentalism effect, an
ambitious card, and a few other cool things, including an AMAZING silk routine. I perform this
professionally myself and LOVE it. It's so well laid out and presented to you that you can pick it
up and start practicing and performing in almost no time. Everybody I have showed this to has loved
it and you will too.
The performances are both "in studio" and on the street for a live
crowd. Tom is pretty funny too. The performances are great and lets you see inside a real pro
adapting to a different setting.
Finally, the real info is here. They bring Tom in for a
really long interview that's split up. It's in studio and looks really nice. He talks from anywhere
to 25-even 40 minutes in some places and it's split up with the performances.
I recommend
this DVD, again to anyone wanting to pick up a professional attitude. I started performign after
watching this, and you can too!
