I have watched several videos and demos of this effect now and I'm beginning to like this more and more.
Michael Murray seems to be a true gentleman. I'm impressed by his presence on this forum. I love effects that involve pages torn out of magazines. I own Horoscope by Chris Congreave and contemplated Gossip by Craig Petty. I also own Screen Test. Movie themed effects are fun to do for the most part. Some questions I have had about Show Reel have been answered by Mr. Murray already, such as "Is the outcome always the same?" or "Can this be performed for the same group more than once?" I still have a few questions that I have not seen answered. 1: Will I also be able to reveal the thought-of movie that the actor appeared in?. 2: Can any of the 30 names be chosen? 3: Are there movies that feature actors of colour? The last question is there because most of the time I perform before a multi-ethnic audience. I really like the free shipping overseas. |

These points are all covered in the explanation but to summarize -
Revealing the celebrity and then the movie is anticlimactic, for example, If I revealed that the thought of name was Keano Reeves the participant will be impressed, but if I then revealed that the movie was the Matrix this becomes less impressive as we already had the actor confirmed so it is taken for granted that we knew the movie too. This is why I teach a way of revealing a genuinely thought of (fictitious) movie title which always plays far stronger. The illusion is that they had a free choice of all 30 and I haven’t had anyone question to the contrary but naturally this isn’t real mind reading so there is some chicanery at work there. Lastly, lets just say that their choice includes some of my all time favourite actors which includes Morgan Freeman (whom I consider to be one of the finest actors alive) closely followed by Samuel Jackson too. Those who own this will understand why Morgan Freeman is my favorite Hope this helps! Best Wishes Michael

453rob. Michael, never switches off...... ever!
It no longer surprises me when a FaceTime call appears on my phone (yes, sometimes at 3am), with an excited Geordie wanting to talk through an idea or try a new subtlety. I'm sure I must hold the world record for having to think of a playing card.......... The development of 'Isolation' still gives me shivers lol |

Just met up with Michael with Pig Cake in Newcastle.
He was kind enough to bring us some Show Reels, mine were extras I preordered this the moment it came out and just got back to my US post box two days ago to start really playing with it! So far I performed it once today for a friends that naturally screws up everything because he just doesn’t listen and it was so easy to do even on him, then that ending with the visual reveal is just pure candy. I’ve got a talk at a college psych class coming up and may throw this in as my one little white lie magic example of print advertising for fun. This is a joy to perform and the best part, it’s EDC because it folds down and fits perfectly into my wallet. Thanks for always being generous and kind Michael, I love Show Reel and it was great hanging out with ya for a day! Jake |

When you buy this do you have to wait to receive it before gaining access to the video?

Will the new tutorial be an add-on video with additional points, or a complete re-working? Just trying to work out whether to watch it now or hold off for the new upload

Michael, is just putting the finishing touches to the new video.
He would have uploaded it yesterday, but unfortunately I did a FaceTime call to him, unbeknownst to me whilst he was filming, and ruined it. So, my apologies on his behalf. |
