October 26th, 2010 Comments

coin magic contest

I got a mystery package in the the mail today. I wasn’t expecting anything magic-related and when I opened it, an unreleased copy of Metal by Eric Jones was there. I smiled, wide.

There was a nice letter inside the package too, and after some reading here and there I found out about the 1929 Walking Liberty half dollars contest. I’m thinking about giving this one away and placing an order just to get a chance on those sweet pieces of silver…

Here are the contest rules:

Be one of the first 100 Metal DVD orders and have a ONE IN TWENTY CHANCE at owning and practicing with most unique and authentic coins preferred by respected professionals.

free silver half dollars

Metal is launching the 1st of November so be there before anyone else and you’ll get one of the sets.

You can read more about it at TRICKS WITH COINS.

Here are some pics of the cover, which by the way is awesome:

Dan and Dave Halloween Video Contest

October 21st, 2010 Comments

Dan and Dave contest

This Halloween we invite you to join us (Dan and Dave), if you dare, in the most haunting video contest we’ve hosted yet! But beware — if you fail to raise our hair, your video will be tossed out in despair. Muahahahaha!

Okay, enough with all this trick or cheesy. This Halloween, send us an original video featuring any magic trick of a spooky nature, presentation, or theme and we’ll send you a treat! The more frightening your video is, the tastier the treat will be!

The Trick

Choose your effect wisely and pay careful attention to the subject matter, palette, mood, atmosphere, lighting, editing, sound effects, and music — these are all aspects you can use to scare-ify your video. What we are not looking for and do not wish to see are poorly-cut-out horror figures thrown on top of an old video. This might scare grandma, but not us! We’ve seen all the tricks, so your chances of getting us to jump are very unlikely.

We’re looking for creativity, sound performances, and thorough execution. Make it hauntingly horrifying, ghostly frightening, bloody appalling… you know the rest. Do your best to trick us and we’ll supply the treats! Have fun!

The Treat

Treats to be handed out may include any number of the following: Videos On Demand, Gift Certificates, Playing Cards, HD Downloads, Coupons, and the grand treat of all: a signed copy of Uzumaki!

Remember, EVERYONE who tricks Dan and Dave gets a treat!

Rules

On Halloween, there are no rules! However, because this is a trick-or-treat contest, your video must be submitted on Halloween. Not sooner, and definitely not later. And we don’t want to see it posted anywhere before! Information and where to send your video will be announced on Halloween’s eve. For now, get working on your video!
