"This isn't just magic, it's personal development. You're literally becoming something more as a person... and certainly as an entertainer by learning this stuff." -- Jonathan Evans, Penguin Magic

"I must say that I thoroughly enjoyed the Greg Wilson 'On The Spot' videos. Not only was the material excellent (not to mention impromptu), but the live performances were fun to watch. These tapes have everything - great magic, Greg's amazing persona and skill, and exciting live performances with real reactions from real people. Greg's ability to structure magic is superb, and I will be adding some of his performance gems to my repetoire." - John Kennedy

The Effect
An On-The-Street Video Set of Routined Impromptu Magic

On the Spot is a guerilla course in performing impromptu magic. The material is so strong, you could show up at your next gig with no magic on you and still entertain the daylights out of them. It's that good.

Get ready to experience Greg's outta-sight insights for real people with real off the cuff fun! With these simple but stunning routines, you'll be able to turn everyday objects into weapons of deception.
  • Ticker Taker - A super-simple and perfectly motivated watch steal that doesn't take tons of testosterone to perform. Learn how to repeat steal a spectator's watch up to 4 times in a row.
  • Quick Silver - A quarter disappears and reappears three times - in your eye socket (like a monocle), on the spectator's shoulder, and finally under their watch. All you need is a quarter.
  • Sponge Napkins - The impact of a sponge ball routine with ordinary cocktail napkins. Greg's gone beyond the ordinary spongeball moves and has them reappearing in surprising places. Greg also introduces a new concealment that will fool you and your spectators. + Across - A clean and slick impromptu Coins Across. All you need are 3 borrowed quarters. Better start doing your Pinky-Pushups for this incredibly fair handling.
  • Head Trip - A Paper Balls over the Head routine with anything - and everything. Gregory grabs glasses, plates, and saltshakers - anything he can get his mitts on!! This routine alone is a postgraduate course in misdirection.
  • Glossy Finish - A smear of borrowed lipstick penetrates a spectator's tightly clenched fist. This is perhaps the most motivated and natural routine in the series! Even if you're familiar with the method, you'll still be fooled watching the performance!
  • Toll Free - A Close-up miser's dream that ends with a jumbo production! Multiple methods ensure that spectators never see the same move twice.
  • 99 Cent Trick - Multiple coin vanishes topped off with a dizzying transposition. That's all I'm telling you.
  • Florida Keys - Ordinary keys and their key ring become a mini Linking Ring routine.
  • Ring Fright - You toss a borrowed wedding band into the air and then stab it with your finger!
  • Questionable Trick - A very convincing copper/silver transposition with the spare change in your pocket - a penny and a dime. Now you can perform Scotch and Soda anywhere, at any time. Playful Pickpocketing - Rob your spectators blind - they'll love your for it. Greg demonstrates how Close-up Pickpocketing can transform the audience's definition of you as an entertainer and erase the lines between performer and audience.
  • ReCap Revisited - Gregory's classic, as you've never seen it. Greg's added new subtleties, moves and brilliant new ending where the pen is pulled from the pencap!
Plus More!

These aren't just abbreviated quickies. They're complete routines that are so strong, they can be used at any professional performance.

Manufacturer Says
Shot live on the streets, Gregory Wilson's On the Spot features over 2 hours of material, in-studio explanation, broadcast quality footage, and multiple performance excerpts for each routine.

Testimonials

Dear Born-to-performer,

Once you start doing magic, it's very hard to stop. Not just because it's so much fun to be the life of the party. Not just because it's a blast to fool the pants off your spectators.

The biggest reason it's so hard to stop is everybody coming up to you asking to see a trick.

I love it when people come up and ask to see a trick. It's a great feeling to know that people remember your magic and want more of it. Often, spectators will approach who haven't even seen you perform before--just because they've heard you're a magician.

When I was first starting out as a magician I had to turn down a lot of spectators because I didn't have my special equipment with me or I wasn't set up. I'd have to make up excuses and turn the people away. I was dependent on gimmicks and props. I was into magic, but I didn't feel like a magician.

On the Spot with Gregory Wilson changed that forever.

On the Spot is a two volume course on entertaining people. You'll learn professional routines that are completely impromptu. You can perform them anytime, anywhere, with no special props or gimmicks.

We're proud to announce that "On the Spot" is now available on DVD. This is one of the very best magic videos ever produced.

Sincerely,
Jonathan Evans
Penguin Magic: born to perform

I did buy this DVD as part of my 5 DVDs for 99 offer about a year ago. I just had time today to write up a review of this excellent product.

I don't usually do this but this is a very good product that you should add to your cart.

I'll admit the price is a bit steep and out of all the tricks, the only two I hated was the one where Greg was throwing paper balls around and the ring stab, but that's just my opinion.

Other than that, the teaching is very clear. There are several tricks in this DVD that can be "reputation makers." One of my favorites is glossy finish, where lipstick just somehow appears on your spectator's hand.

You must add this to your library if you're interested in street magic.

  Gregory is the Best
by Martin from Rep of Ireland on 04/22/2010 07:19:33      [report this review]  
I've watched a few DVDs of other magicians but when you watch a Gregory Wilson DVD you learn a lot more. I found this DVD very easy to follow and the tricks don't take long in learning and I would say that this is good value for your money.

  Fantastic
by Clay Skaggs from Kennewick, WA on 04/09/2010 07:45:22      [report this review]  
I love this video. It is a true example of how powerful impromptu magic can be. These tricks aren't throwaways. They also aren't all easy. They are however, well within the grasp of the average magician.

My favorite routine is Florida Keys. It is a bit knacky but once you have it down it is like riding a bike. I carry this set up everywhere I go. I also like Quicksilver. This is another great routine that can get alot of mileage. Finally, A questionable trick is the ultimate economical trick utilizing a dime and a penny.

There isn't a single thing on this video that I haven't performed at least 10 times. Most I have used more than I have counted. I love it.

Gregory Wilson is a true technician when it comes to his magic and you will love some of the tricks in this and other DVD's by him. There is something for every magician and performing situation in this DVD. Forget your cards for a moment and have a great time with the tricks in this DVD. Must have add to cart.

  Greg is a funny guy
by Akela from Southeast PA USA on 04/05/2010 20:16:26      [report this review]  
Every magician should know how to use everyday objects on the spot.Greg does a great job presenting these routines in an entertaining fashion. I felt that the DVD could use some more content in this price range.

Beginners should expect to practice a great deal before presenting any of the routines in this DVD.
