Is the melting coin a trio type routine?

Pyro, it is not a coins across routine if that's what you meant. It is a production, vanish than reproduction of three coins much akin to the one that is on Hit The Road DVD.

I received my copy yesterday. Watched it twice. Very good. Goodbye.
Okay, allow me to expand on this DVD slightly. Reed hit the nail on the head, this DVD is all about simpicity. There is nothing exponentially difficult on the video. All will require some practice, but should be well within the grasp of a intermediate magician. As for specific effects, well, here goes: Melting Coin-This is just plain cool. Very visual magic. Coins appear from a flame, and seemingly melt away back into the flame. This has to be seen to be appreciated. Mugger-Another coin effect, this time a wild coin. Very direct, and pretty to watch. Not my ball of wax, but still a cool routine. The Card That Can't Be Palmed-Definitely eye candy. Quite possibly my favorite on the video. The animation of the card is just plain spooky. It looks like the card has a life of its own. Voo Doo Card-Unlike everyone else, I was not to terribly impressed with this effect. It was good, but I have seen other variations that I prefer. Tornado Straw-This is a cool piece. Not for everyone, or everywhere, but when the time is right, this is an eye popper. Holy Pocket-This is one of two dissapointments on the tape. The effect just wasn't convincing to me. Seemed too complicated to reach the desired end. Hot Shot Pocket-The other dissappointment. Many people will like this effect, I however, am not one of them. Don't know why, but this effect just didn't grab me. All in all, this DVD is a stellar purchase. No, you won't like everything on it. No, you won't do everything on it. But you will like most of the material, and I promise that at least one effect will make its way into your repetroire. On a side note, Nate goes out of his way to properly and appropriately credit others for moves, ideas, inspiration, etc. This along with great material earns this video Highly reccommended. Sean |

After reading Reed's review, I'm going to buy Nate's Visual Voodoo. The problem is that it's sold out!

This is a great video filled with real workers. Everything has been well thought-out with strong magic moments. Highly recommended.

If I remember - a slippery sam for one of the coin effects... Others like voodoo card can be quickly made yourself in seconds...
Personally this DVD is not one of my favourites... although I did learn how to properly perform the Di Manche Change (in the hand switch)... and got my first insight into JT's 3 fly - with an effect based loosly around it...
catch you later

Nate is a memeber here, and you could probably buy the dvd off him... he'll probably even sign it... I got to jam with him a while back and he's got some of the coolest effects out there... I hope he releases another dvd because he had some stuff that wasnt on the dvd, but it might as well have been... very visual killer stuff for laymen..

No, the DVD came out in 2003. If you have trouble finding it, go to http://www.magicsmith.com I know they advertise it, just not sure if they too are sold out. I thought the DVD was better than "Outside the Box" and it has a mix of different things.
Cheers, Bill |

Thanks Bill. My shop never carried it, so I missed it. It sounds very good.

I just received this DVD and I really like it. The Voodoo card routine combines several principles that are all very doable for one really good effect. It gave me some ideas to take the effect even further.
