This lecture will make you more interesting... Well maybe.
This lecture talks about taking
a trick and making it theatre. It's a great lecture and David talks about Premise which he believes
is completely necessary. I totally agree with that statement.
When you watch David perform
people listen and are engaged. He makes them laugh along the way and basically gives you his full
act he did at the Castle and explains the hows and whys.
I COMPLETELY disagree with the
comment saying it was an advertisement for the clarity box. In fact, David shows a method with the
regular opaque container you could easily make at home.
If you are a person looking for
tricks... Sure, he teaches some really interesting stuff you may like for a parlor performance.
Honestly though, you'll never be satisfied with your journey if all you do it buy the "next great
thing."
Instead learn how to make your magic more interesting and engaging. You can start
that journey by getting this lecture and studying his approach.
I personally did not like the lecture that much, and the method he taught for card to impossible location is as old as the hills NOTHING NEW HERE.
Go and buy Approaching Magic or any of his DVDs they of much better value for money.
Any lecture which inspires someone to think differently about THEIR act... is a good lecture. I love learning tricks but it's not everything. The advice David gives is not only practical but worth hearing.
This stuff isn't meant to go into your act (while some of it may). The tricks, performance etc. was used to highlight the overall message which was made very clear. It's not a lecture on how to perform like David, it was a lecture on how to make your own ideas come alive.
I own the majority of his publications and always learn something new from his discussions. I don't buy them to learn how to perform his trick, I buy and study them because I want to learn how he thinks and approaches magic.
Personally, I'm a fan and stand by the review.
I think that their was not that much theory taught that is new. However it is just my opinon and you can have your own.
