Errrrr Nothing???

To be perfectly honest, I wouldn't go for anything that ellusionist has produced if you are a beginner. Try something by the likes of Michael Ammar's and his Easy to master series. Whether it's card, coin, ITR magic that you want to do, this is the perfect starting point. Get the groundings in first and then maybe work your way up to the ellusionist titles at a later date!!

I agree with fantastic

I have purchased from ellusion, and although the videos are very good, you do need the basic coin and card manipulations mastered before you move on. They say the tricks are self working, but you still need that confidence of handling coins, cards etc to show through to your audience (in my opinion anyway)

My view is, you buy a piece of magic that is performed gracefully and beautifully on the video and is made to look soooo easy, you buy it, and find you dont have the patience to practise because its so difficult, and then it may put you off magic.

The complete introduction to coin magic by Michael Ammar is a nice DvD to start with. A witty guy and you get the base of coin manipulation to learn more intricate stuff.

Hope this is of some help and good luck
Mark :-)
