So send me a PM and I will discuss how you can make mentalism work.

Could easily give my presentations however I won't for three reasons: 1. They are mine, inturn they would not work for you as you are not me. 2. You will get more a lot out of it if you do the real work to achieve it. 3. I am too lazy. Seriously I will help you however I will not spoon feed...

There could be many many reasons why you are not getting the reactions you are either use to or are expecting. The first is whom you are showing the effects to, you said yourself that you are a good magician, your friends and family know you are extremely talented. For example you might perform...

In theory you could do it with one person, however doing it with four people makes it easier and more impressive.

Also what do you need to be able to do blind folded. How big a peek do you want? You should really just go to 13 steps.

Its the method a lot of pro mentalists use, Basically you get 4 pieces of gaffa tape each about 8-10 inches long. Put the coins on two of them just above centre. They go diagonally across your face, then the other two cover them up. Look at Max Maven's thinking in person youtube clip to see a...

It was very nice. I love the time more than anything.

Just use Gaffa Tape and Coins for the Blind Fold Osterlind has three blindfolds that could work for you aswell.

Just a few pointers with the video you posted. The first one is a general observation you pause quiet a lot when you are doing a move. This can give the spectators the sense that 'something' is happening. The first control that you used you completed the cut, For that move to be deceptive...

Billet knives are mainly for prediction work. A few of the bill in lemon knives will do the job. Truth be told look at Corinda Annemann The Artful Mentalism of bob Cassidy And to learn billet switches Switch Craft is impossible to beat.

2 minutes should only be one effect thats it.

He has released most of it on the Green Magic DVD's they are about $90 for all 6 on penguin. The Master Files are rumoured to have all the ins and outs of his act.

The pass is an amazing sleight. If you want to look into the 1 on 1 with Jason England it would be very beneficial.

2 minutes is not a great deal of time. I would perform Las Vegas Leaper or Leap of Faith (the Bill Malone addition that allows both spectators to count the cards.) YOu would need to rush through some of the presentation though to keep it short.

The Cross Cut force was created by Max Holden in 1925

I personally use the cull to the bottom and Ben Earl's Stream Line Control.

Basically it is shuffle the first card signally. THen shuffle off Shuffle again and make sure you get to the last card and shuffle it signally aswell.

I do a lot of cold reading. Personally I agree with the belief that Corinda shares in the 13 Steps, one could read all the books on cold reading and not still not be as accomplished as someone with a natural gift to do cold reading. Craig has a free PDF suggesting where to look I would...

Luis learn some sleight of hand. Dave Forrest has a really nice version that requires a peek and some culling. There is a performance of it on YouTube somewhere. It was a combination of that effect and Patrick Redfords in triangle that is what one of my memory demos is based on.

On the whole magicians cannot (usually) sell a Centre Tear. As I was saying earlier I would highly recommend the classics. Cassidy's Mental Miracles is also amazing as he shows you his modern handling of classic's. Hi book the Artful Mentalism is also well worth the price and then a lot more.
