There are some lecturers that are OK and then some that just WOW the audience. I just saw Ken Scott's Lecture "Making the Birthday Dough 2" at the KIDabra Conference this year (2011) and I must say, I had to get his DVD before the crowd did.
All I can say is that a line went around this hugh conference room for Ken's new DVD. He must have sold 100 that day. I don't know how many he had, but I got mine real early! Ken is well known for his ability to entertain children, I thought I would say that for those who do not know Ken Scott. (Are there really people who don't know Ken Scott?) I loved his Chair suspension routine, and again, like the first one, Ken has a nice chat about the Birthday Party Magic Show business, hence "Making the Birthday Dough 2" title on the DVD. This alone is worth the purchase of this DVD. Personally I think he is selling too low of a price. It worth much more to me! If you get a chance ask Ken about this DVD. I talked to him about it and there is so much this post would so long. All I will say, is you will get your purchase price back many fold if you follow his advise. Ken are you out there? Please tell us the difference in the First Birthday Dough DVD and this one Birthday Dough 2, DVD. -Dennis PS Donald, get your soon!

His first DVD had solid info from a working pro, so I'd expect the new one to exceed my expectations as well. Even though I've been doing shows for a long time, I always pick up nuggets of wisdom from other pros. - Donald P.S. Another thread on Ken's new DVD.

Ken mentioned he sold 90( at Kidabra, and I know of at least 10 folks who ordered it yesterday when it became available), so you were close with your estimate . I am looking forward to getting it!

I'm also looking forward to it. Will be especially interested to see his chair suspension. Hope he also talks about the curtain. Looks great.

Dennis,
Just curious as to how much DVD time is actually devoted to marketing, not Ken's birthday party act? Thanks, Gerry |

Thanks Den for your kind words. The show is 45mins and then I talk about using music and what I am using now in my show to control my music. I have section on using a bunny. I teach my egg bag routine, I talk with max in about a 20 min talk about various things in the birthday business.

About using music and what I am using now in my show to control my music...
[/quote] And do we need to buy the DVD for you to share this info with us? I'm looking for a good system at the moment. Thanks. [/quote] ?? Not sure your question?? But if you need a good system I use a paso sound system and a mp3tech for my music. So there ya go you don't need to buy the DVD. Ken |

That's what I was asking. Thanks for sharing (I'll probably buy the DVD anyways).

I just ordered the DVD. I have never been too fond of the egg bag routine as I have never seen a routine that didn't end up boring me by the end. I read a posting recently on TMC that convinced me I need to give the routine another chance do to the excitement some members who I respect a great deal had for the routine when done a certain way. So I am looking forward to seeing Ken's Egg Bag Routine. I also have a rabbit I use so the fact that Ken discusses them appeals to me. If this DVD is as half as good as those hear anticipate, it was a real bargain @ $30 + $6(shipping). If it was more, I would have spent the time to read further reviews, but for that money it is probably hard not to get more than my investment back. Thanks for letting us know about it.

The DVD has Closed Caption - right!!?? that way all those that are Deaf and Hard of hearing can enjoy the DVD as well.
I doubt it does and that is a bummer but those that can hear will get a great DVD as Ken puts out some great quality stuff! enjoy sam

This is one of the WORST Kid Show DVD's on the Market. I like Ken and his performing style. He is a Very GOOD Performer. But the DVD to me seemed like a desperate attempt to make some DOUGH (Money). I really wish people would quit praising very BAD DVD's like this. My question is this? Is it really the DVD you like or is it Ken Scott? There is nothing New on the DVD, Nothing Ground Breaking, it just contained common sense and the show he performed was not one of his best as I have seen him do way much better. I give this DVD just a 1/2 Star out of 5-Stars. Now let the flaming and Ken Scott followers begin.

Not as bad as Tim Sonnefelt's DVD, which felt like a bunch of reject routines that couldn't possibly be Tim's A material. The only recent children's performance video worth what I paid for it (actually worth much, much more) was Tommy James's Read to Achieve Magic Show. |
