Not a beginner DVD but a lot of practical advice from Cloutier on this effect. Demonstrated in front of a live audience makes these even a more valuable resource. If you want to make a bill appear in something other than a lemon and want a novel idea for getting it there this is a must have DVD. I am a big fan of anything by Cloutier and may be biased however this is a very good DVD and will give you lots to think about.

I am just going to review the Bill In Kiwi as this was the highlight of the DVD. This is one of the most fantastic routines I have come across in a long time. I feel this effect is best performed at a private party. There are so many elements to the effect making it so much stronger.
Teaching: The teaching on this is very well, he goes over every little detail and does not leave out anything.
Quality: The quality of the video is good, nothing wrong with it just not perfect.
Set - up: The set-up to the effect does not take a long time, but you do want to be precise in making the gimmick.
Practicality: This is effect is very practical.
Practice: This effect does take sometime to practice as you do some risky moves to get the final revelation, but after some practice and timing it is well worth it.
All of the other effects on the DVD are very nice as well, but I just wanted to review the Bill in Kiwi, because it was the highlight.
I am very happy with my purchase.

This is a fun dvd, but will require a lot of pactice, there is alot of misdirection and you need to be able to handle an audience in order to do these effects. Very good though.

These dvds are packed with great effects. If you're a stage or show magician, this is something that you need to buy. You just can't find a better effect for a wide range of audiences.

I have seen other bill to lemons before, but Carl's is the best one I have seen. The moves can be a little difficult to get down, but it will be worth it once you do. In addition to this great routine, Carl also presents additional routines and effects. These other effects will require lots of practice. It's amazing to see how fluid Carl is in executing the necessary sleights. Nonetheless, this is a very good DVD set and I recommend it.
