Ellusionist does not recommend using a download manager to download your files. You will DEFINITELY have problems if you use one and your connection is not reliable.
Our downloadable videos will work on all operating systems capable of playing WMV & m4v video files..
QUESTIONS:
- Can I download onto a Mac Computer?
- Can I play my video on a different computer?
- What happens if my computer crashes a few months from now?
- Can I copy my video to a DVD?
- How much free space do I need to run the Video Player?
Can I download on Mac?
Yes, you can download on your Macs now.
Can I play my video on a different computer?
Yes. Have at it. Don't give the file away though because we don't like that.
What happens if my computer crashes a few months from now?
For the love of all that's magic BACK UP YOUR VIDEO TO A CD/DVD. You'll pay dearly ($5!) if your machine crashes and you want to download it again (the $5 is for admin time, employee late night field trips to the 2 AM Club, donuts, and bandwidth of your big fat download).
Can I copy the video to a DVD?
Yes you can. But if you then give it away to someone else we'll send the old lady from our refund page after you.
How much free space do I need to run the Video Player?
Video Player requires a squandering 9 MB of free space to install; however, in order to download and play a full big fat movie on your computer, you should have at least 400 free MB. If you do not have sufficient free space, we recommend purchasing the video in DVD format.
How long is the video?
55 minutes-- to be exact.
Do I have to use sleeves with Silver Dream?
No, there is also a gimmicked version of Silver Dream that uses no sleeving and can be done in short sleeves. You will need an expanded shell coin for that, available on this page at Ellusionist.
Is it hard?
That depends on your present ability with coins. It will need practice, but the rewards are enormous. You will learn more rare things about sleeving than you thought possible. If you thought you knew sleeving, you don't.
Do I need props for Silver Dream?
There are two versions of Silver Dream on this DVD: gimmicked and non-gimmicked. For the non-gimmicked routine, all you need is three coins. We sell brand new coins here if you need them at $1.98 each. Alternatively, you can go to your local bank and get coins that have been around for a while.
For the gimmicked version of Silver Dream, you will need the basic coins, PLUS an expanded shell coin, also available on this page at Ellusionist.
Can I use ANY coins for the non-gimmicked version?
Yes. Kennedy half dollars or Walking Liberty half dollars are highly recommended however, due to the size and easy visibility for your presentation.
Does the gimmick come with it?
No. If you want to perform the gimmicked version, you will need to purchase the gimmicked shell coin above.
Do I have to use coins or can I use anything?
It's possible that you could use other objects, but coins are the ideal weight and size.
How long will it take me to learn?
That's a subjective statement. We don't know your present ability or how fast you generally learn. Justin's teaching is so good, however, that it will ease the way for you dramatically.
Do I need baggy sleeves?
If performing the non-gimmicked version of Silver Dream, almost any sleeves will do the trick as long as they have some 'give' in them. Relax-- at least you don't need to be wearing a hula-hoop around your wrist!
