The pre-order page is up on Dave's site. There's also a demo showing two effects from the dvd. Dave's got a really good deal going on right now if you buy both volumes.\

My popular trick, 18, is on this set. There's also an effect called "Between" which I KNOW people will be using. It's one of my absolute faves.

http://www.full52.com


Contents:

VOLUME 1 CONTENTS

Hadron Collider
You attempt to find a selected card - the Six of Diamonds. You find instead the Eight of Diamonds - close but no cigar! Out comes your trusty 'Hadron Colllider' card - which looks suspiciously like a blank card with two holes in it! Using this incredible technological marvel you visually 'suck' two pips from the Eight - filling the holes of the 'Hadron Collider' card - changing it to the selected Six! Very, very weird science!

FF Collectors
Three Kings magically trap two selections then they suddenly change into the mates of the third selection and also indicate its position in the deck!

The 3 Card Trick
Attempting to perform the famous '3 Card Trick' you are coninuously thwarted by the persistence of a fourth card! Every time you discard one of the four Aces, it somehow makes its way back to the packet! Killer commercial close up with a 'kick in the teeth' finale!

Between
You make two predictions on business cards but, they both turn out to be wrong! The chosen card is then magically produced from between the two business cards!

Invisible Poker
Larry Jennings classic 'Invisible Palm Aces' gets an overhaul! This easy but stunning version wraps the effect up in a presentation that really makes sense and has the type of kicker ending that audiences just can't get enough of!

Offshoot
Two cards are selected - a Two and Five, say. The three mates of the Two suddenly appear between the four Jacks. Then suddenly the Jacks transform into the mates of the Five!

Coin thru Hand
You borrow a coin and attempt to push it through your hand but - something goes horribly wrong! On turning your hand over the coin is seen to be sticking half-way out of your palm! You grit your teeth, yank out the coin and hand it straight back!

5 Card Monte
A 'no palm' card to pocket built into an engaging 'street hustler' routine! Easy and enteraining - you'll definitely be using this one!

Limelight
The cards take on a life of their own! One pops out of the deck and directs you to the location of a selection while some others make a suggestion for your next trick! This routine is practically self working and makes use of a very cool but rarely seen gaff!

Impossible Sandwich
A spectator freely selects ANY card which is then lost back into the pack! The spectator then fairly cuts two red Kings into two seperate halves of the deck and re-assembles the deck themsleves With NO MOVES you spread the deck and the two red Kings have mysteriously come together in the deck with just one card in between them - the selection! You just won't believe it - you really won't.
VOLUME 2 CONTENTS

Eighteen
A shuffled deck is spread and any card is freely named. This value of this card is used to select two more cards and all three cards are added together to form a random number. The named card is turned over and amazingly it is seen to be the only card bearing a messaage: TURN THE BOX OVER! The card box is turned and in huge black letters is the sum total of the three cards!

Pip My Ride
You visually move a pip from one card to another - then you eat the pip! Seriously!

Gnoma
A strange kind of sandwich effect where nothing is as its seems!

Progression
A progressive assembly with a backfire!

Trick Question
A spectator names a four of a kind and an 'observation test' takes place - the spectator being asked to follow the movements of one of the cards. Suddenly the cards all change to a completely different four of a kind and the named four is discovered in the centre of the pack! All but the one the spectator was keeping track of that is - that one's in your pocket!

Void Voyage
You visibly remove a hole from a playing card and have it appear on a selection that is held tightly between the spectators hands! A crazy 'moving hole' gimmick makes all this possible!

New Addition
A mathematical card trick - but it's NOT boring!

Twist Again
Dai Vernon's classic 'Twisting the Aces' gets the Forrest/Francis treatment!

Ultimate Separation
An 'Oil and Water' routine on steroids...or should that be acid? Ends with an amazing separation of the cards while they're safely locked in the card case!

The Colour of Money
How to play pool with playing cards! A routine that is literally bursting with magic and ends with the logical production of a full sized 8 ball!

The 19the of january I recieved an email from Dave's site announcing the new DVD.
5 seconds later I sent my pre-order in, not knowing the content yet.
Why ? You don't have to know the content of a DVD from David Forrest and Francis Cameron. You simply KNOW those two men deliver good material.

For those who don't know that, they have apparantly given the content in this topic Smile

Dave Forrest Rocks!
And that other guy is good too. Smile
Just joking, I am so there. No review needed for me.

Two of my favorites together, yippie!
After much soul searching about a signature, I decided not to have one.

Thanks, guys.

Just so you know, about half the material on the dvds were joint collaborations. The other half are things we came up with independently and didn't bother asking what the other person thought.

These two guys are not only some of the nicest guys in magic but are also the most incredibly creative. Dave is just mentally creative in everything he does and Cameron finds magic with everything he looks at. Been waiting a long time for this and can't wait to check them both out! Rockin!

My pre-order was put in the instant I received the e-mail from Dave. This is going to be the DVD of the year. I have purchased nearly every single item that Dave has put out, and every item I have received is just incredible. He is my favorite creator hands down. And Cameron is right up there as well.

Do yourself a favor and put your pre-order in now. If your not familar with either of these gentleman's work, I promise, you will not be disapointed.

I hope not! Smile

It's all pretty commercial stuff. We shot performances of some of the tricks live in a pub. I have no idea if they are on the dvd or not. It was late and we were tired so who knows how they came out! But it was FUN!

I've pre-ordered them also. I've only done that for the John Bannon set.

Like many people, I think that "a Forrest/Francis collaboration" was enough to make me interested with these dvds, but I have to confess that the different plots you came up with sound very exciting.
NEW E-BOOK! Sneak: 12 card tricks based on the same principle.

Willhyde995 - The DVD's will ship next week.

When they do start shipping, the current offer of 'Both volumes for £19.99' will end and each volume will go up to £14.99. It's also worth mentioning that, if you'd only like one volume to 'test the water' as it where, you can pre-order single volumes for just £10.99 each.

I've just added two of the LIVE clips from the DVD's to the website. Me and Cameron had a LOT of fun shooting these DVD's - it was one of the longest weekends of my life but it really was a HOOT! Check out the videos at the website and please excuse how tired we both look!!

Ha, Dave I just saw the videos up on the site! They turned out better than I thought they would! Seriously, though, good stuff. And those guys were such a receptive crowd. But I bet they never want to watch another card trick again! Smile

And, yes indeed, that is my trick 18 which somehow went viral on YouTube when it was released as a download. The PDF alone sells for $10 so getting it on a dvd with nine other tricks for a little under $20 (American) is a bargain!

UPDATE: All pre-orders have been shipped over the last two days.

Thank you all for having faith enough in the project to pre-order. I think it's some of the best material either of us have released in a while. And, those of you who are attending Blackpool can come by the Full 52 stall and judge for yourself in a few days time - I'll be demoing the sh!t out of these two volumes all weekend!

All the best,

Dave.

I am so excited!! My pre-order should be arriving any day now. I know that this DVD is going to be incredible.

Cameron, I just watch the live demo of 18 on Dave's site, and Hot Dam*! That's a killer effect! And you were not kidding about youtube.. I typed "Cameron Francis 18" into youtube's search engine and Dear God.. I don't think that there are more performance videos of any other effect in the history of the interet!

Seriously though, I know for a fact that I'm going to be adding 18 to my repertoire. Right next to Cagey, which is one of my favorite effects to perform.
Great work Cameron!!

The two DVD's arrived this morning and I watched all the effects.
I honestly must say that I am a little disturbed.
Normaly on TWO DVD's full of card tricks you expect at least some tricks that are less interesting or that are not "workers".
So when I was watching effect after effect, I was waiting for one or more lesser effects. They did'nt come...
On this DVD's there are no minor effects and it is almost impossible to say which is the best. It is of course a matter of taste, but all the effects are potentialy evenly good or shall I say terrific.
I think it will be very hard to make a review of this DVD's. In my opinion ALL the effects deserves a 9 or a 10/10.
I know that sounds a little childish but I realy cannnot say more about is.

Apart from the fact that David and Francis could have give a sort of warning on the DVD-cases that there is not one single minor effect on this DVD's. You simply don't expect that and that is disturbing Smile

Many thanks David Forrest an Francis Cameron for those DVD's and I mean it.

LOL!! You lucky bum! I'm patiently awaiting mine to arrive..
I totally know what you mean though. That's exactly how I felt when I watched Trickery, and The Omega Mutation.
