I love the drawings, on mine I deliberately coloured out of the lines added a smudge here and there and my court cards are a stick man/woman with a crown etc.

It looks great. Of course if you've got access to a real 4/5 or 6 year old, get them to do it.

Yeah kids cards is great and Gets mentioned on the DVD but it will not work with this routine.


@Jamie Daws, I love your idea. That's a great use for another presentation route.

I received this today but there doesn't seem to be a pdf file on the disc. I have tried all the usual things like open and explore but all I can find are the audio and video files. Has anyone else got this problem. I don't think I am being am being stupid but you never know
Even with this slight problem which I am sure Russ will soon sort out I am very happy with it and I know I will be using this.

Me as well Rowland, but I have just called Russ and he is going to email the pdf file to me.

I have just watched the performance and explanations, and I stand by my earlier post; Excellent road tested routines for the worker for all skill levels.The handling of the first routine is exactly how I do do Gary's THOUGHTS.

Another winner and definately 10 out of 10.

Thank you Chris.

Hello Everyone,

The DVDs were all shipped yesterday, so the PDFs weren't sent until today by email. Everyone that ordered will have a confirmation email that their order shipped and that the PDFs are attached to their email. As I said, this is a pre-release copy (the final product will have the PDFs on the actual DVD of course). Anyone ordering will receive their product in this way.

Thanks again to everyone that ordered.

Best,
Russ

Received this today and been having such fun with it all day! The DVD is brilliantly put together and the routines fun. There is one particular with a special frame (WHICH IS IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND) that stands out ten fold! The method is nothing overly new but when put into this routine, it just rocks! Im having great fun putting my own presentations to it and hopefully one day, ill find the frame.

Recommend to all who want a great memorable hook!

Hi Jamie, I am also having fun performing this with a wallet that has a window in it, you get the same effect as the frame. Unfortunately the wallet I got is also hard to track down, but the Steve Draun real mans wallet has a similar window and is available for about £25 at lots of dealers.

Glad you like the routine.

p.s the frames may reappear at some point(fingers crossed).

I used this last night at a 2 hour corporate event at Slayley hall and the reactions were great. I did the card in wallet version.

It's now been fully tested and it's fantastic. 100% recommended.

Hi Mike, fantastic, glad you like it. I'm amazed at the reaction the first card gets, as magicians we forget how strong these things can be, the second card is the killer though!

Thanks for the feedback mate.

Brilliant work Chris, and the input from Lee and Gary is first rate as usual.

For those with a JOL wallett, the middle section contains a section for a photograph ideal for the first reveal and by which time the second selection is inside the zipped compartment. Not tried this out yet but it's an idea I've just had.

Really pleased with this!

Glad you are all enjoying this so much. I was honoured to be involved with this routine. It has become a stable in my close up set and is something I will always use. Just so glad others feel the same.

I feel it would be difficult to not love this even if you don't use it.

When I received my RSVP newsletter and saw the ad copy for this, I was very intrigued. I actually have identical twin 4 year old boys, Connor & Cody...


I use them in the storylines for some of my effects, both close-up strolling and on stage so I definitely wanted to check this one out. After seeing the trailer and seeing that there are TWO different reveals done by a child I could not help but smile to myself...did I mention I have TWINS??!! RU kidding me?!, this is perfect for me, my performance style and the types of effects I do. Chris, thanks for letting this "cat out of the bag".

I would like to ask Chris, Lee, Gary or Russ if they could comment on the business card version I saw listed in the demo video. Is it basically the same plot as the wallet version done on business cards or is it a bit different?

Thanks,
Hank

I'm thinking probably not but could this be utilised for the frame routine?:

Just thought it was worth a post and a mention for those that are looking for a frame.

It won't work as Lee said, but what a brilliant frame, this would be a show stopper at any gig!!

http://www.seomagic-usa.com/catalog/product_info.php/cPath/21/products_id/895

The frame I use and the one Chris used on the DVD are no longer made by Mark Leveridge, but Russ has spoken to Mark and hopefully will have some made up shortly. They are a work of art and the workings are pretty amazing so they won't be cheap, but you will have a first class and natural looking utility prop which is just perfect for Childsplay.

I believe Hank lees still has some of the frames, although it will probably be more expensive than getting one from Russ and Mark.

Understatement of the year?! Don't use your credit card

On another note, I was up in Walsall the last week training with work and met up with Chris at the pub as I haven't seen him for years and we jazzed and were showing the pub Magic all night, and I thought this was special, really special! Had the whole pub astounded, I like this a lot, very clever thinking and very commercial!

This is one of the most commercial card effects I've seen in years. I've been using it for the past few weeks and am delighted with the reactions!

I know this is a cliche, but I truly wish that Chris hadn't released this as I would have prefered to have been one of the few people doing this routine.

It's virtually self-working, automatically resets, doesn't need a table and most importantly is a memorable and amazing piece of magic. This one ticks ALL of the boxes!

Very highly recommended!

Iain.

I like this so much I splashed out on a (gorgeous) JOL wallet to go with it. Wow, works like a dream, just fried the 'trouble & strife' with it.........thanks Chris

I cannot recommend this highly enough!
I just picked up a pre release copy, and it's jam-packed full of ideas and different presentations.
Every thing is covered from no palm / no wallet versions, all the way through to an amazing photo frame finale.
The only trouble I am having is having 3 daughters myself.... they have been fighting over who get to star in the trick themselves!!!
Russ, Gary, Lee & Chris (in no particular order!!) are proving to be the real driving force in "workers" releases these days.
Pass this by at your peril!!
