Hi, N.P.! It's not really a secret. My suggestion was simply to use cards that would work in your language. That's all.

Folks,

we have been blown away with the response to this project. people seem to be really responding to the strength of the material. I spent all FISM demming tricks from this DVD and it was astounding how FOOLED the attending magicians were.

check out some of the feedback we have been getting...

‘This is !@#$%^& awesome!! Every effect is excellent – ‘Contact Colours’ and ‘Henry Sugar’ stand out - but Terry Lagerould, ‘Your Aces Are Marked’ isn't gold…its platinum! Just proves although its important to work on your pass, DL , top changes etc you can still fry people with self workers.’ Dave Cooper

‘Just wanted to let you know to know how amazed I am about the quality of the tricks included on this DVD.’ Daniel Lagerman

‘I am normally a sleight of hand guy, but this DVD is absolutely excellent. Great choice of tricks, and superb presentation. Very well done.’ Rob Willett

‘I just wanted to say how much I am enjoying the ULTIMATE SELF WORKING CARD TRICKS DVD. This must be up there with one of the best DVD's I have ever bought. Only one word to describe it really.......... AWESOME.’ Doug Heath

I ordered on Monday and received the bonus PDF and video almost immediately by eMail; the DVD came in the post on Tuesday. Great service!

I can only echo what everyone else is saying. These are great effects, and the teaching and production standards on the DVD are excellent.

Really impressed with this release; well done!!!

So, I ordered within a day or two of the pre-order announcement being made, and I'm still waiting for this. You (craigwest) ordered on Monday and got it on Tuesday. WOW! I'm sure that you are over there in the UK, and I'm here across the pond. I'm sure that that has something to do with it!

This is NOT a complaint- it's just an observation on my part. BBM has been good to me over the past few years, and I like them!

Indeed and I can confirm it is doable - still have to make some time and figure it out completely though

Mike Maxwell's earlier efforts - Incredible (but Inedible) Self-Working Card tricks - attracted quite a bit of flak in the old days of VHS.
Perhaps unfairly. He did unearth some gems such as Eyes of the Gods.

I really enjoyed BBM's presentation and content on this new dvd.
Their fashion sense is slightly different from Mike's.
They also manage to lure some desirable devotchkas in front of the camera.

I hope BBM bring a sequel out.
Ultimate 2 or Penultimate 1 or possibly Ultima Thule?

RJS - did you mean these desirable devotchkas?

Them's the ones.

Think we got the better deal on this occasion !!

Got it today here in New York. I'm looking forward to checking it out and putting some of the effects to good use!

It'd arrived at Penguin:

This looks excellent!

I've been able to go through the DVD and I'm not going to give a trick by trick review, BUT I will say that this should have gone for double the asking price. They've done an excellent job compiling some of the best self working tricks ever in existence. I can't wait for Part 2!! Great production, great explanations, great job!!

Couldn't agree more Lunatic,

Just got this yesterday and watched about half of it last night.

• EXCELLENT production value overall.

• Great intro's to each effect, giving some history to the upcoming effect as well as what seems to be very thorough crediting.

• The effects themselves are all very solid. So far, I haven't seen any convoluted or drawn-out counting sequences or anything like that (which I sometimes associate with "self-workers")

• Nice bonus section with some tips and comments, as well as a few simple shuffles and cuts taught.

• Very clear teaching and explanations.

• Performance sections feature visually appealing spectators.


Overall, only a bit over halfway through and I am VERY happy with this DVD. Great job guys!

Rachel and Amy were fantastic spectators!

But, seriously, I've watched some of this and at least a few things will go into my performance repertoire.

WOW

This is ONE great DVD.

I am usually very happy if I can fine one good nugget in
a book or DVD

I have found (so far) seven on this disc.
At least two of the effects will move into my
#1 set as soon as possible.

Also - would love to have beer and do some magic for
the lovely ladies who participated.

Keep up the great work BBM

WOW! Sounds like this is a good DVD to put into the aresenal.

Folks,

we have a FREE bonus download for anyone who has purchased the ULTIMATE SELF WORKING CARD TRICKS DVD. the mutant brain that is Liam Montier, has come up with a killer idea for a way to use Aldo Colombini's Contact Colors to link immediately into another killer routine. it allows you to perform two of the strongest pieces of magic ever created in ONE routine. it's a GREAT idea.

and you can download the video instructions for free. to get the download link please email me at info@bigblindmedia.com and make the subject line of the email the THIRD word on the small print at the bottom of the DVD disc itself. (so open the DVD case, look at the tiny words at the bottom of the disc and quote the 3rd word you see).

AWESOMENESS!
