Thanks Thomas,

As I said the filming starts in about 9 1/2 hours so it won't be too long before its release.

Thanks again everyone for your interest,

Ben

Filming is finished!

All is looking great, there are lots of little extra ideas that I have included to. It shouldn't be too long before the download will be ready and the DVD's replicated. We will try to get a clear close up demo up asap so you can see a nicer video clip of the actual linked rings.

Thanks,

Ben

Watched the filming of the DVD yesterday, Looks like it's going to be a very nice production indeed! Need's to be too, as Ben's effect is a killer!

What really impressed me was the attention Ben paid to not leaving a single detail out of the handling and presentation. With Ben tipping us one of his faviourite performing routines, some might say its like cutting off the branch your sitting on, but the effect deserves to be taught with ALL the 'little extra tips' that are so useful. Ben, well done mate!

Should have a release date very soon now, and will get it on the site for pre-orders as soon as we know the delivery date for the first batch of DVD's

Dominic

Hi everyone,

Just so you know we will offer pre-orders only once we know the actual release date of the DVD as I believe there have been too many pre-orders taken with magic effects when the actual product isn't anywhere near ready. I also may see if we can do some sort of pre-order the effect and get the download link sent to you whilst you wait for the DVD, that way you have the effect and can start learning the technique asap. It is just a thought at the moment but it should be easy enough to do.


Thanks,

Ben

Yeah the download link option for those who purchase would be cool... hopefully you can get something like that sorted.

That should be do-able.

Just spoke with Dave (Full 52) and he said the footage is looking really good, I'm really excited about this release!

Ben

How mauch longer ben?

Hi Ben,

When pre-release and the download link?

Cheers

Hey guys,

I'm afraid I cannot tell you an exact date as I am not sure when the editing will be finished. All I can promise is that when it is I will strive to get it live to you asap. I am hoping it will be done by 2 weeks time max.

Thanks again,

Ben

This does sound like a genius idea.
Presuming you guys are American-will it be available across the pond?

Hey Elliot,

We are actually based in england, although it will be distributed through Murphy's Magic Supplies which is an American company. As soon as it is in stock with them we will have it in stock, we will also have it available as a download. Just so you know the Merchant of Magic is based in Waterlooville which is just north of Portsmouth about an hour and a half south of London.

Thanks, I have been told the footage is nearly ready so it definitely won't be too long.

Cheers,

Ben

I can't wait for this!!

Looks good

Thanks everyone,

I am hoping it won't delay the project too long but the person editing OCL has had some personal problems he needs to attend to. He promises it won't delay the project too long but, I also understand if it does as it is not your run of the mill type personal problem and he has all my support.

So as gutted as I am to say this it is going to be a little longer,

Sorry guys,

Ben

Ben,

Take your time.
Quality over quantity anyday.

Thanks,

I fully agree, I have had a look at the artwork and it looks great, the stills from the video footage look awesome too. I really can't wait to unleash this to you all, I am sure you will love it!

All the best,

Ben

That said, hurry up!

ME

Hey Mark!

I have actually just been forwarded the master copies today! I didn't actually expect this for a good couple of weeks so I am VERY happy! And, it looks great too!

I will try to upload the demo in the performance section today so that you can all see the performance.

Thanks again everyone,

Ben

Hi everyone,

Here is the performance video taken from my O.C.L. DVD. I was hoping to get a REAL close up of the linked cards but as I didn't know exactly what footage was going on the DVD I haven't done it myself. As there is no EXTREME close up on the linked cards I will film one for everyone asap. I promise you that there is no area on the linked cards that you can see any sort of slice or cut.

Anyways, here is the video of the performance:

Enjoy!

Lloyd
