Over the past year, we've released a number of tricks and techniques with a mentalism style. From Shredder to Sneak Peek, Out of My Mind to Colorblind to Phantom - these are all powerful, simple mentalism concepts that have potential to blow people away - speechless. On October 31st, we'll be releasing THE CODE - a project 18 months in the making with Andy Nyman, writer and director for Derren Brown's new stage show.
Tonight's challenge is about a demonstration of the mind. Specifically, your mind. The challenge is simple: perform a mentalism effect for a real audience (or just a single spectator) - and post your video in response to this forum thread.
Your effect can be any type of mental magic effect - any sort of prediction, mind reading, red/black divination, or beyond. Creativity counts, but your effect does not need to be an original creation. For example, you could very well perform Shredder, get an incredible reaction, and take home the prize!
What we're looking for: proper technique, captivating presentation, and clear impact on the spectator watching. Make their mind explode! Of course, bonus points if you mix your own unique spin or original presentation.
You have 24 hours to make it happen. ANY mentalism effect - old or new - simple or complex. But videos must be uploaded to YouTube or Vimeo and posted in response to this forum thread on or before 7:30pm EST tomorrow - Sunday.
What's up for grabs? First Prize: a pre-release, advanced copy of The Code by Andy Nyman, shipped on the house anywhere in the world. And 1,000 Elite Member Points. Second Prize: six pack of Artisans, shipped on the house, and 250 Elite Member Points.
