Review of Digital Conviction by Robert Smith

Reviewed by Bernard Sim

I watched the demo before I watched the DVD, like everyone else, the first thing they ask is, will the phone have two pictures in it? Well, the good news is, you only snap once for the picture and thus will only have one picture in it.

Robert Smith gives very detailed explanation on the DVD, but I have to be honest with you, the DVD is kinda boring to watch. Robert Smith like to say “ahh” or “umphhh” when he is talking , he even does that during his performance. After a while of “ahhs” and “umphhs”, it gets annoying, but that has nothing to do with the effect.

The effect itself is quite strong, not only will you have a visual change on the card; you will even be able to change the picture in the phone. You can do it with your own phone or with a borrowed phone. With your own phone, at the end of the performance, you can send the picture via MMS to your spectator’s phone, the spectator will remember you and at the same time will have your contact number. You don’t really need to have a lot of skill to perform this effect as it is relatively easy.

Rating 3.5/5
