You will learn how to make a fountain, how to fold a fountain, how to put a final load in a fountain, how to make an "easy release" holder for your fountain, how to hold a fountain for production, how to steal a fountain from your table, how to reduce the effect of static electricity on the silks in a fountain, and how to customize a fountain for a theme or particular style. With up-close camera work you will see how folding is done, how the release system is gripped, and how the fountain is presented to achieve maximum effect and impact. You will also learn one complete routine where, with just one 18" silk and a gimmick containing some 12" silks, you end up with a bubbling fountain of color that seems to have come from nowhere. Valuable information that is hard to find from other sources, some of it may be nearly impossible to find.
