I don't know if there are any dedicated distance casting videos available to buy. Most of the distance stuff i have looked at is on youtube or vimeo. Most of it is not teaching but it can help to see what it is all supposed to look like.
I would look at any of the slightly more advanced casting videos that deal with things like double hauling. It depends what stage you are at with your casting whether or not those dvd's will help.

The double haul by rhea topping and friends isn't bad. Personally, watch Carl mcneils 'casts that catch fish', particularly the review of gamells 5 essentials and just go practice

I have one (bought some time ago) and if I'm honest have yet to finish watching it
However, it's the first real attempt that I can think of - off the top of my head - which is about distance casting.

Youtube has its limitations.Too many limitations. We need to resurrect John Huston. I'll purchase the B.F.C.C .DVD by Mike Marshall, as it looks like a good start for a beginner like me. Thanks for taking the time to reply chaps.

You would probably be best to simply follow this board, get one n one lessons and spend a lot of time casting against the tape.
Improve tracking. Improve line speed. Improve line carry.
There. Just saved you $39.95
