Initial Thoughts:

When Josh told me that he was considering releasing a download, I thought “Great, another coin download…” I didn’t expect much, especially since he was producing it independently (which, due to the Wire, has rendered most magicians unable to judge what is good and what’s not in the magic world).

Months later, Josh sends me the trailer. I was in Starbucks as I watched it. As the baristas stared as if I were possessed, my jaw dropped. I hadn’t seen a trailer that was that well filmed and edited in a very long time. No stop signs, no street lights… no metal music. Just a demo that showed the magic in an aesthetically pleasing manner.

The Download:

The download itself explains 4 effects and several sleights. The quality of the video ranges, but for the most part is incredibly well filmed.

Though I must say that Josh expects that you know a lot of moves before you buy the download… Classic Palm, Pointing Transfer… etc. He does explain everything, but for some of the moves, I felt like the explanation was very brief.

Overall:

Overall? I liked this download a lot. I found a few ideas that I’ll be putting into use in my own performances. It was fun to watch, and for $10? I think it’s definitely worth the money even if you only get one usable effect out of it.
