Look into my eyes, look into my eyes, the eyes, the eyes, not around the eyes, don't look around the eyes, look into my eyes. *snap* – you're under...

Stick to B&W. The color photo is making him look like a pedophile.

i like 2 best. in 3 and 4 the type is fighting with his image (on his face no less) and the yellow bar in 1 feels like those "idiots guide" books to me

2 is the 'better' layout but the colours and font are a bit 'African band' circa 1980. And that photo is just wrong... he's messing with my mind!

So when can I find this DVD in that big $3.99 bargain bin?

food for thought - don't flip the image - he's either married, or not depending.

Top right, but make the photo B&W.

Top right.
Make him black and white.
Make the yellow V narrower so it isn't framing his face.

top right. has the best focus

I agree with keeping it black and white. also, nothing about it says magic to me.

I think the image by itself is enough to get across the point of the DVD.
My approach would be something like #1 without the big yellow field.The typeface is pulling the design down IMHO. I would do one without it and show him. It's already used in the logo fwiw.
Are you inspired at all by this project? Seems like maybe not, which is tough.

What's the 'Special Equipment Included'?

Hang your quotation marks. I think the image should be black and white. I also don't think you need the shape behind him in the upper right image. These designs seem gritty, not really magical.

B+W photo on a yellow background? TOTAL RIP

IMO, the only art style for magicians and the like that doesn't come off cornball is more in the vintage style:
- But you're probably not the target market for a DVD about how to do magic.nb
- My Dad's a magicianETM
- FOR REAL? That's his profession?nb
- Are you sure your dad isn't a hooker?
Just saying...Hombre_Lobo

Thanks for the feedback it all makes sense.
I want to do a vintage look, but I dont think he will like it.
