1 of 1 magicians found the following review helpful:
I heard great reviews of this tape, and don't know why people would say the stuff they did.... maybe
i'm not advanced enough, but i think that the first video at least sucks. Overall there is about 20
minutes of teaching... ...there is about 15 minutes of him talking about what he likes in magic...
...20 minutes of the cameras just going back over the tricks and showing them at different angles
but not saying anything, and about ten minutes of him showing the tricks at a favorable angle to a
few fake audience members... ...the teaching goes like this..... "I hold the cards like this (then
the camera zooms on his fingers for about a second), and then I do this", and then he does the move.
And then he says the same thing all over again. This is about the extent of the movie. Everything
in this video involves palming cards, which he conveniently does not teach... ...so overall, if I
could return it, I would. I thought this was crap. I could have just downloaded a movie of someone
doing the moves in a mirror and picked up the same amount of knowledge.

This was the first video set I ever bought; back when they were vhs. Jeff McBride is an excellent
instructor. The material progresses from easy to very difficult, but if you move through everything
step by step you will be able to grasp everything taught. Card Manipulation is extremely difficult
to learn even with video, so do yourself a favor and buy the best resource on the subject

Jeff McBride is an AMAZING card manipulator who has more talent than most anyone will EVER have in
the field.
Because of that, this set is the ULTIMATE set you can buy if you hope to learn card manipulation. He goes over EVERYTHING in detail in high quality, easy to understand video. If anyone is qualified to teach this stuff, Jeff McBride is. He also teaches you the tips and subtleties that he has learned over YEARS of proffesional performances. Highly recommended!

I'll tell ya, I've seen alot of different tutorial's and instructional videos on how to do this or
that, but this one by FAR is the best I've ever encountered. Jeff explains everything and shows you
step by step how he does what he does. Each DVD is broken down into smaller segments (I guess you
could call them mini-routines) and at the end of each one, all the moves are repeated twice, with a
closeup of his hands and in slow motion. The only way you would not like these DVD's is if you had
no desire to practice. Alot of these moves defiantely require practice, but that's what magic is
all about. If there was one DVD set I could recommend, it would be this one.

I just want to say that Penguin has lived by their name. If you want to advance your sleight of hand
magic, just go for this dvd. I was completely satisfied and I am sure everyone who purchases it will
be also. Great stuff.

It can't get any better then this. Jeff McBride is without doubt one of the best cardmanipulators in
the world. On this DVD he share some great card productions and flourishes. You will also learn a
few full card manipulation-routines and tips on how to make your own. His teaching methods are just
great, everything is explained VERY well.
The guy with the bad review must be commenting the wrong DVD. These three DVDs are the best I own (and I have a few). What he must not have realized is that these moves taught on the DVD won't take you ten minutes to master. No, it will take you months of practice (if you're new to magic) to get these moves down. I sat down one day and spent ten houres on just one production. So, if you're looking for magic that will take you ten minutes to learn, this is not for you. But, if you're looking for a challenge and being able to perform the most beautiful magic there is, this one is for you. Did this review help you?
One of the best DVD I have

Jeff McBride's the art of card manipulation DVDs are some of the best DVDs that I own. He teaches
things very clearly for the most part, meaning that everyone's hand is differnt so what may work for
one person wouldn't work as well for another. So, you may have to slightly modify how the card is
plamed in your hand when you do the manipulation. He also dosen't teach you the basics in palm a
card, but you can figure it out with out to much of a problem just by looking at his hand. Jeff
will show you a sample routine however, he shows you the manipulations and then you have to come up
with your own routine. I use these manipulations almost every time I perform a trick. whether it
is doing a lepaul spread, a thumb fan, one handed fan, circular fan for a person to select a card.
again I highly recommend theses DVDs. They will take practice to master, but it is some of the
funnest magic that I know.

I have no idea about the guy with the bad review but these 3 DVDs are AWESOME and do NOT suck. If
you want to be able to manipulate cards by making them appear, vanish, and reappear, and learn some
excellent flourishes (Rolo Deck, Waterfall Shuffle, One-Handed Shuffle, Charlier Cut--or one-handed
cut, LePaul Spread, etc.) then get this DVD NOW!! Don't even think about it. Save up your money and
get it! He does go over the teachings real well and the "Talking" that he does are tips and ideas.
It has this awesome Super Practice mode that teaches you every single trick and flourish in slow-mo
in a very up-close and great angle-to-see teaching. This is very professional magic. Almost all
these tricks were the hardest tricks I've ever learned how to do. Some tricks require little
practice while others require a very extensive amount of practice, but that's the beauty... if you
can do it (with all the practice) you know someone else (without practice) CAN'T do it.

Manipulation routine shows the artistic side of every magician. This DVD will give you all the tools
you need to construct your card manipulation routine. All you need to create a powerful routine is
right in this series of intructional videos. All you need to provide is the time to practice, and a
creative mind to put the pieces together and you will have an act that will make people say "NOW
THAT'S A MAGICIAN!!!"
