The best thing about this DVD is the bonus-effect that you can see in the video that advertises it.

I have watched about 6 different Sankey videos. I have written postive reviews about them and several of his products. And I liked this one as well. He is interesting and encouraging on this project and it's always fun to listen to uncle Jay anyway.

However, this is something you let wash over you, it's entertaining, but entertaining much like a soap-opera. There is some wisdom here, but all in all, even though I enjoyed it, I absolutely recommend NOT to buy it. It's about 45 minutes long! and sure, quality is more important than quantity, but for the money, it is NO WAY justified for this one. It's also lacking in substance, for the money you can buy 3 solid books on creativity (and very good ones). Consider that performing and explaining 4 tricks takes away from the 45 minutes. In a way it's like paying good money for a long sankey-interview. Which doesn't take away from his intelligence and intellectuality. It's good to watch with a cappuchino but if you are short on money there are way better investments. It's a bit of a feel-good DVD. If you hate reading, bad for you, because way better to read his book "beyond secrets" ( which is too expensive as well). Stick with his other products.

Jay Sankey is an excellent teacher. The DVD is very clear and easy to understand. You just have to take ACTION on the information Jay provides.
I already within 10 min. after watching the DVD came up with a better method (that works) on a trick I spent .00 on!! An amazing DVD.

I don't have a DVD player but I got this anyway and watched it once by a friends house. It's increadible IF YOU TAKE IT SEREOUSLY but you Kind of have to watch it a few times to remember evrything which I can't 100% do. I have always been creating magic but I invented some tricks I would not have invented without it that are totally worth what I paid. (Maybe I'll make a DVD mysef even)

There are so many magicinas, that say they can not create a trick, or that they are not creative enough. If that is you, then this DVD should help you so much, he gives you so many useful ways to become more creative and remember the ideas you may have had. I used to not be able to come up with my own tricks but now I am thinking of quality effects left and right, it is awesome. I hope this DVD does what it did for, for you.
The DVD is well produced a once again very helpful I suggest this for any magician.

Creating an effect is a very hard thing to do and there are not any short cuts. Good trick ideas come with time and constantly looking at other tricks being performed (look at penguin's demo videos).

This is a great DVD. If you believe theory is important to creating and presenting good magic.

Jay Sankey does a fabulous job describing his creative process and giving you the encouragement and motivation you will need to confidently create your own magic (Your own effects, methods, and presentations). A poster printed with Sankey's "nuggets of gold" catch phrases is included with the DVD, so that you can hang it on your mirror or your fridge and be reminded of the lessons he teaches in the video. I would highly recommend this DVD to anyone interested in creating their own magic.

This DVD really help you to create your own magic.
If you want to learn how to create your own magic tricks you are in the ultra-correct place.

This DVD is awesome! I watched it, and although some say that all it has in it is common sense...it is more along the lines of abstract common sense that people don't ever realy think about. You also get 4 great tricks with it which was a plus. He tells you how to be creative...rather than creating for you. Get this and especially take advantage of the March Madness Giveaway cause it's FREE!

If you expect this DVD to make you into a creative magician you're wrong. It gives you tips on HOW to develop into one. It has a few "ok" bonus effects but ontop of that I really liked what Jay had to say, even though some of it was stuff that was kinda obvious. That's why it get's three stars. It's not a bad DVD in any way, but not terrific either. So if you are interested in developing your own magic and willing to spend the cash, get it!
