Doc Eason, one of my heroes in magic. The first magic VHS I ever watched was his Bar Magic series and I fell in love with his style of magic. On this 2 DVD set, you get a masterclass with the man himself, a polished routine that is totally customisable and a toolbox of moves, flourishes, theory and interviews to allow you to create your own routine.
The first DVD begins with a performance by Doc Eason that runs for around 35-40 minutes, it is incredibly entertaining and just watching and learning from this is worth the price of admission. Next, Doc explains this performance from start to finish in great detail. He is an amazing teacher and leaves no stone unturned. There are so many different tricks in this routine (a two card transpo, triumph, etc.) and the card under glass happens throughout the routine at times when they least expect it. The entire first disc covers this routine, however some sleights or moved are brushed over because they are taught in full detail on the second disk (Toolbox).
The second disc is just a treasure trove of sleights and moves you can add into your routines. He also gives advice and his handling of classic moves such as the classic force, top change, etc. My classic force improved tenfold when I watched his little tweak to the move. All these moves are taught in great detail and Doc's advice on them is invaluable. Also, there is an interview with Kozmo with extra performance footage, commentary, outtakes and more.
You really get so much with this set. What's cool is that if you really wanted to, you could learn Doc's 40 minute routine start to finish and go out and perform it, or you can take all the little pieces from the toolbox and put them together to create your own masterpiece. I highly recommend picking this up for two reasons - 1. It's Doc Eason for god's sake. 2. For $50, you get two DVDs with a polished routine taught from start to finish, a toolbox of moves and advice and a buttload of extra stuff to have fun with (interviews, outtakes, commentary, etc.). You seriously cannot go wrong with this. I cannot rate it high enough. 10/10
