Some disputes in purchasing...

[wZEnigma]

Alright. I have a question or two.

I'm planning on getting Sleightly Magical by the Bucks. Scratch that. That's set in stone.

The other product is debatable. I want to get the Paper Engine by Aaron Fisher, but there are some other things I'd like to get like Crash Course 2. Which of these two would be best? I'm an intermediate card magician, basically, learn quick. TPE seems good, but CC2 has a lot. Although a lot of CC2 stuff I know, but TPE might be a bit advanced. I'm sure it wouldn't be a problem, I just want to make sure it's a good buy.

And I'm probably going to get a 1-on-1, either the Click Change or Fan Control. I have two questions regarding these:

-Can I save the video to a flash drive and play it on Windows Media Player? I use shared computers, that's why I'm asking.
-Does the Fan Control use any crimps or bends? Also, does it have decent angles?

Thanks for reading guys.

Yes you could, but if you want to play it with Windows Media Player you would have to convert it to .WMV, unless you have Quicktime or iTunes on both computers

Crash course 2 is basically the slights used in an ACR, so if you know those or have a good ACR already, I would get the Paper Engine. Yes, it has some advanced stuff on it, but it has advice throughtout the book on being a better magician and performer. I would take Aaron Fisher over Brad Christian any day.

Oh, by the way,No one is going to tell you how the fan control works because that is deemed exposure, sorry.

It's difficult to judge difficulty level - mainly because there are too many magicians who think too highly of themselves (no judgment on you btw, just what I've noticed), but I would definite highlight Paper Engine as being the better product of the two.

agreed. im not right about alot of things, hell im only sixteen, but i do know that i would rather spend the twenty five on paper engine, it will change your views on your slieght of hand magic, maybe. im still studying this book, but it will help you much, i can promise you that.
