Magic Tricks

Three cool effects where he teaches how to make three different gimmicks. What I really like is that all three gimmicks are super easy to have with you. What I don't like is it is painful to watch each explanation. he explains them well, but it's like you are watching the DVD in painful slow motion. I guess it's good to learn (and it is), but I had to fast forward as he showed me again and again how to cut each entire one out with scissors (I went to Kindergarten, I know how to use scissors). There is a really cool bonus way of doing watermark that occurs to me that he didn't talk about: Have half a dozen gimmicks in your wallet as he shows how to keep them, and have the participant mentally select a card from the deck with a combination of magician force and free selection. Force a suit, odd numbers, and eliminate the court cards. Let them freely select 1,3,5,7,or 9 (only five cards). They just felt like they had a free choice amongst many more. Allow them to change their mind at the end. "You have 7 of hearts. Do you want to change your mind? 5 of heart? 9 of hearts?" I like to have them imagine a deck in new deck order as if it is on several "the price is right" wheels. This way, toward the end, they have just the wheel with the various force cards and they can spin the wheel back a few numbers or forward. Once you have the card, as you do the move he teaches, pick the gimmick that matches their selection. I love the idea of having some easy gimmicks to carry with me, I don't love the idea of always having to carry a deck of cards.
All in all, Highly recommended.
