|
|
I've always wanted to learn this, because it is so powerful. I doubt I will use it for stage effects, but for close up performances what could be better?
I don't know how to do it, or where to start; so can someone please reccomend books or DVD's on the subject that can teach a begginer?

I meant does it just teach the method, which I know, or does it teach more about the presentation. To be honest I know very little about p**-***w, and would not feel confident doing any of it without some good advice from a book

It teaches the method from scratch in detail and includes several effects. Look it up on the website for more info on the book itself

The Looch DVD has a PW trick.
Looch presents a prediction.
"what's the method?" says Peter N
"pocket writing" says Looch
And that's it! Brilliant bit of teaching. |

P***** w****** is not the same as p**-***w. The clue is in the number of asterisks  _________________ The Fifth Column |

could someone PLEASE tell me w.t.f p**-***w is?
I had assumed it was Pkt writn
foget it.. Just worked out what p**-***w means.
I would of thought that the words p**-***w would of been enough info on ity's own. Almost every effect out there , could be done using p**-***w.
how you gain that info is up to you. _________________ you're like Yoda.you dont say much, but what you do say is worth listening to....

there is a right way to do it.
Ive said it before, and Ill say it again.
The right way to do it, is the way that suits you.
the wrong way for you to do it, is probably the way i do it..( Though i tend not to... id rather force, peek, and trust to luck)
some things, like this, have to be discovered by trial and error.
If your lucky you will go out, spend a few pounds on a clip board, and you will find it perfect for you first time.
But, searching on this, and many other forums for Imp devices, you will see that everybody out there, is looking for the holy Grail of devices, to aid them in pre.
Trust me, Its not been discovered yet. _________________ you're like Yoda.you dont say much, but what you do say is worth listening to....

I dunno... I am very happy with my Butterfly, and I cannot imagine a way in which it could be improved upon.  _________________ Magic won't ever be real. :'( |

there you go.. You have answered your own question.
think these things through. 99% of the time you are already using something that will do the job. _________________ you're like Yoda.you dont say much, but what you do say is worth listening to....
