Description

VOLUME ONE : IMMACULATE IMPRESSIONSIt’s been almost ten years since the prototype of the Brown Hornet was created. In that time, I’ve developed several variations on the basic theme of a good, reliable and innocent-looking professional tool. In this, the first of a multi-volume DVD series, I discuss and demonstrate all aspects of each impression device, along with handling tips, presentations, and many ideas that I hitherto only shared with a few friends.This is a multi-camera shoot, with extensive close-ups, over-the-shoulder and insert shots to make every handling crystal-clear. I’m very proud of this DVD; it’s head-and-shoulders above my previous videos. Playing time is over one hour, with scene selections and fully operational interactive menus so you can replay or jump to the topic that interests you most.Covered in this DVD are:The Brown Hornet The Cicada The Butterfly The Baby Hornet The Skeeter Peeks, peeks and more peeks Repair tips Handling tips Much much more VOLUME TWO : FLASHES FROM THE VIOLET HOURThis volume contains several ideas, some from my books (expanded and demonstrated) and some from my secret notebooks. Some of these techniques I’ve held close for years and only showed to a couple of very close friends.Contents include:Ouija Whiteboard: a utility device that doubles as a visual aid and audience creepout ploy. This little number single-handedly provoked several complaints from Christian schools when I used it in a showcase at APCA one year. Ya gotta love something that creeps out the norms. Riggs Multipurpose Wallet: This is a gimmicked wallet you make yourself from a regular wallet cheaply obtained from Wal-Mart or other retail outlet. This is not a peek wallet, but one that I originally designed for Card-to-Wallet and went on to use to load a folded prediction. It’s a new weird concept, very easy, and with no slits or openings. It takes advantage of the natural design of a bifold wallet. Bumbershoot Q and A: Explained and demonstrated. Book Test stuff: using cheap ungimmicked books and an idea I’ve held closely guarded for a long time. Several business card effects. Sneak Peek Envelope: this is the item worth an arm and a leg, in my opinion. I kept this secret for years despite the begging of many friends. Information written on a business card and sealed within two completely opaque envelopes can be peeked instantly. Two unique applications other than the obvious ones. My nifty James Bond PW Device. Ostin clip handlings and techniques, including my Visual Retention Billet Drop, which will delight you. Key Shocker, from Heavy Mental, my one and only mental bending innovation. Vintage footage bonus track. And more, of course. This is a multi-camera shoot, with extensive close-ups, over-the-shoulder and insert shots to make every handling crystal-clear. VOLUME THREE : MACHINATIONS AND MODULATIONSSlow-Motion Gellerism — a slow-motion silverware bending method.Another Peek at Jaks — discussion of some revolutionary handling for the first and best of the peek wallets.Psychological Bank Nite — simple methods combined with psychological ploys.The Marvelous Mucking Peek — a peek I’ve held close for years. A thought is written on a business card which is held in full view on the palm of your outstretched hand. it’s briefly covered with your other hand and you gain the information. This is no exaggeration. This is the item worth the price of this DVD in my opinion. I truly had pangs when I let this go, but it was on the verge of being tipped by someone to whom I showed it, so I thought perhaps it was time.Reviving Room Service — one of my favorite openers given a new life and a new handling.Whillicker’s Last Trick — for the first time the complete handling of my SWITCHLESS razor blade trick is explained, complete with performance. This was partially described in Heavy Mental but several key points were omitted because I couldn’t bear to part with them. Here, everything is explained step by step.Like the others in this series, this is a multi-camera shoot, with extensive close-ups, over-the-shoulder and insert shots to make every handling crystal-clear.
