More iCandy Volume 2
Lee Smith; Gary Jones
RSVP - Russ Stevens
(Based on 1 review)
"More iCandy" is our biggest project to date! Both DVDs feature 17 routines and have a running time of over four hours! Each DVD also features a comprehensive toolbox section where Lee and Gary sit down and explain their favourite sleights and moves that are used in their daily professional work and are part of the featured routines.
Volume 2 Contents:
Witchcraft2 - Arnel Renegado's amazing new effect that has got the magic world buzzing! Imagine borrowing a bottle of water and changing it into a named flavor of drink! Remember the bottle is sealed, borrowed from the spectator and immediately handed back afterwards. Arnel explains full construction of the special gimmick. Please note: This effect is for 18's and over.
POB - Gary Jones' great card effect in which a signed card appears inside an examined card box in the cleanest way ever! The spectator can even remove the card! Fast, punchy and hard hitting magic.
Here and There - Lee Smith's fast and snappy transpo routine that he uses every night in his working set. It's that good!
Interweave - Join Brendan Rodreguez as he explains this brilliant flourish using two borrowed rubber bands. Perfect as an opening flourish before or after any rubber band sequence. Eye popping magic at it's best!
Repeat Cards to Pocket - Gary Jones' perfect routine that is as clean as it gets and super commercial.
John Carey Bonus Routine - Brilliant thinking from the mind of John Carey
Join Lee and Gary as they explain in detail the moves used in the tricks featured on this DVD. These are moves and sleights that they both use in their everyday work.

After being very intrigued and happy with the first iCandy project from Lee Smith and Gary Jones and hearing that they were coming out with two more, I was eager to see what they had to offer. There are a few pieces from the first iCandy that I now use in various sets.
More disappointment after More iCandy Volume 1.
I will start off by stating that the Witchcraft2 effect, while a great idea in theory, is so cumbersome and impractical that it is not worth even attempting to build the necessary components for it. Even with great audience management skills, many performers will find this difficult to execute at some point or other. That is assuming they actually try this thing.
Now I love Gary Jones and the work he does and his POB (card to card box) is alright and it makes the supposition that it is the "cleanest method ever" for this plot, but I have seen even better methods out there.
Repeat Cards to Pocket is more filler, essentially. You can find essentially the same premise of the effect on the original iCandy DVD in the effect called Pocket to Pocket to Pocket.
Again with the Toolbox Section - probably the most useful stuff on this Volume as with More iCandy Volume 1, but again, you can find most of these sleights in books that are a far better value than either of the More iCandy DVDs.
Again, this is my opinion and some may like this DVD and find its contents useful, but as I have said before, I still think there are more useful items on the market worthy of your money, time and study.
