 Hey everybody, welcome back to Magic Orthodoxy. My name is David and this is a magic review. Hey, today we're going to look at Move Zero Three from John Bannon and Big Blind Media. What is Move Zero? Move Zero is the trilogy now. It is a trilogy that John Bannon and Big Blind Media have released. These are all completely slight free magic tricks and they're all powerhouse killers. Let's watch the trailer. All right, so that was Move Zero, Big Blind Media. People down there, Owen Packard, Liam Montier, Cameron Francis, awesome team. What is this? All right, so you've seen me do a couple videos in the past. I did a review for Move Zero One. I did a review for Move Zero Two. This is Move Zero Three and I just want to make an argument for the entire trilogy. Okay, I want to make an argument for the entire trilogy because this is really a masterwork collection. And I think a lot of people immediately dismiss slight free magic and they just say, uh, you know, it's too easy or it's for beginners or it's for novice magicians. I would disagree. I mean, John Bannon even goes through in this DVD and he talks about how he himself does these tricks all the time, especially when you've got a deck of cards in your pocket. People approach you and they say, hey, do something. And you're thinking, uh, that's my deck's messed up from the last trick. I didn't reset it and blah, blah, blah. It's good to have five or six tricks that you can do in your repertoire that kill and don't think that slight free magic can't kill. It can. Okay. It can. And this DVD proves it. What's in the box. Of course, it's just a DVD. Uh, you're just getting a DVD. Uh, whether you order Move Zero One, two or three, uh, there's single DVDs. There's no gas included. There's no gas needed. You, most of these tricks can be done with a ordinary deck that's probably even missing a few cards. Okay. So it really doesn't matter. A lot of these tricks enable the spectator to shuffle the deck first just to show there's nothing tricky going on. So, uh, yeah, everything is contained in the DVD. Each DVD, uh, in the series is a roughly two hours long. The great thing, of course, about slight free magic is every trick can be inspected. Of course, you can always hand the deck out. Uh, many times before the trick even starts and have the spectator shuffle, you know, the spectators are never going to find anything because there's nothing to find. What's the overall quality and production value of the video? A big blind media makes great videos, especially in this one. There's multiple locations. Uh, oftentimes, uh, John Bannon is explaining, uh, his routines to Liam Montier or one of the staff at big blind media. Uh, the spectators in this video are always attractive, always very beautiful. Uh, and John Bannon's a really patient teacher, you know, he's got a really nice voice and he's easy to listen to. He's not one of those magicians that talks way too much or too fast or you're finding yourself falling asleep going, uh, just shut up. Uh, he explains everything and he explains it succinctly. Uh, I like this video as far as the teaching goes because, uh, he shows the trick live and then he performs it again, uh, for his explanation and then as he walks you through it and then there's a couple instances where afterwards, uh, he goes just a little further and just gives you some of the backstory. Of course, on every single one of these DVDs after the effect is done, uh, John Bannon and big blind media absolutely give credit where credit is due. They always tell you where these tricks were inspired from, where they were printed first. All right. So what's taught on the DVD, uh, on all three volumes, there are the effects, obviously the effects, and then there's a Q and A. There's always some questions that John Bannon does. There's interviews and then there's these things called trick bag. Trick bag is where even though there's no slights involved, there are still some moves. Whether you learn the assay false cut or if you learn the prophecy move, uh, there's still some moves and, uh, John Bannon takes you step by step through them. I think the other really great thing, let me just sort this in. The other great thing about this DVD is, uh, John actually goes through all the pattern. So he's not just showing tricks, right? You watch the whole thing from beginning to end and John has really crafted this wonderful pattern around some of these tricks. And I would highly recommend you watch that just as much because I think sometimes we take the trick and we're like, oh, a trick, but listen to how John crafts these tricks. Okay. The pattern I think that in the story that he puts around it is what sells a lot of these self-working tricks and what makes them, uh, gems, his timing, right? The distance he puts between what he does this and when he does this, I would pay attention to all of that on move zero three, there are nine effects and that's pretty much average for all three volumes. There's either nine or 10 tricks. So you're always, always, always getting your money's worth. I mean, nine to 10 effects. Awesome. The very first trick on here is called the 32nd sense just to give you an idea. Okay. I'm watching it preparing for this review. I watched the very first trick, watch them get through the explanation and I literally paused the DVD, assembled the trick because it's one that involves a prediction and I had my own idea for what I wanted the prediction to be. So I made up a little packet of what my prediction would be and I immediately ran downstairs and I showed the trick to my wife. Like that's how excited I was just to learn this and I was just so anxious to perform it. I wanted to see her reaction and I hadn't even gotten through it. That was the first trick, the very first trick right out of the gate and I was hooked and that's the way I feel about all three of these DVDs. Highly recommend all three of these DVDs. You can start with any one of them. You don't have to start with one or two or three, start with three. I don't care, move backwards. They're just, they're really amazing. All right. So as far as set up and reset, I'd say there's like three tricks on every DVD that involves some sort of deck stack before you start or at least knowing where certain cards are and then one of the DVDs actually, John Bannon actually walks you through. If you do one trick and you end with all the aces out on display, he has you put the aces back on top and then he walks you through how to do a second trick knowing where the aces are. So that's good. So there's a couple but I would say most of these, most of these are no set up whatsoever. All right, so positives. What are the positives to this? Of course, like I said, it's great made DVDs. It's well made, big blind media makes great DVDs. John Bannon's a great teacher. There's great effects on here. There's nothing bad about this at all. I would highly recommend this. Like I've been saying, over and over and over again, buy this, put all three into your cart if you can afford it. Is it worth your money? They're 30 bucks a piece. Each DVD is roughly 30 bucks a piece. Like I said, you're getting almost 10 tricks with each one. So I think it's a bargain. And I've been waiting for volume three to come out for a while now and I'm just so glad it's here. All right. So that's my review of move zero volume three from John Bannon, big blind media. I want to thank Owen Packard, Liam Montier, Cameron Francis and everyone down at big blind media for allowing me to have this so that I could do the review for you. And if you would like to purchase this for yourself, you can find it wherever big blind media is sold. Thanks. Bye.
