If you want new effects (Mostly fillers) for your repertoire (Close-up or walkaround) then, for the
price (cheap), this set is good. But I would get Gregory Wilson or Bill Malone DVDs first tough.
Bill Malone is more about cards, but Gregory have a lot of stuff out there (Two close up card DVD's,
his impromptu "On The Spot" DVD and his In Action series are a must). They have better material
magic wise, and those guys are funny.
About the DVD's:
Jay Sankey's lecture is
more about finding comedy in close-Up situations, and not about writing (or scripting) funny lines
and patter about your effect. He teaches a trick in it (a card to pocket)
Rich Marotta's
DVD's are cool. you will find a lot of effects you will use (The walkaround ones are great, definite
workers). But the DVDs are more about magic than comedy.
Good for the price.
