The Rice Papers DVD - Homer Liwag

[Ola]

Just got the download of this, had to get it quickly, so couldn't wait for the DVD to arrive
The review will be short, but I haven't got the time right now - will fill in later
So;

The effects are very nice; visual and hitting hard, but it's not an entire show - it's mostly short in between-effects you do between your regular tricks.
Will get gasps and laughs from your spectators before you move on to more "serious" tricks

The teaching is very precise, straight to the point, no messing around.

The difficulty of the tricks range from easy to medium in my opinion, but mastery and smoothness wil probably come harder.

Anyhow, for twenty dollars, this is a steal!

So what exactly are the three effects? Are they:
Shrinking and growing marker, appearing glasses (is there an element to this that makes it new or original?), and something with faded cards (not sure what the plot idea is there).

Are there bonus effects on there?

I'd love to hear more when you get some time.

Thanks for the brief review.

Yeah, you got that dead on.


First an effect where your enormous contactlens appear in your hand, and then your glasses.
Quite nice effect, will probably use it.
Don't normally wear my glasses, but maybe I'll start using them just to do this effect

Then the fogged up cards, kinda funny, but nothing I'll ever perform.

And last; shrinking and growing marker, ballbearing falling out of the marker, ends with marker being transformed into something completely different, for example your phone.

There's alot of useful tips in here, and it's definately worth it.
The first and second effect are effects you'll use, especially if you use a lot of signed cards.
