The Initiated – No.4 by Marc Spelmann (DVD)

August 28, 2011 by · Leave a Comment 

In The Shadow Of Geller Marc Spelmanns unbelievable one handed coin bend that has fooled everyone who sees it incredibly clean and best of all the coin slowly bends at the finger tips. Not just a reveal of a bent coin but the audience actually see it bend at which point it is fairly handed to the owner. Just A Thought A shuffled deck of cards is openly spread for a spectator to just think of one no forces of any kind. The thought of card is slowly divined and placed on the table for the dramatic revelation. Out Of Sight Just In Your Mind Marc Spelmanns variation of the renowned classic by Dai Vernon streamlined handling minimal sleight of hand in probably the most direct mind reading card effect. Marc has made Dai Vernons classic effect easier and more accessible for all to do. No table required no breaks held just pure mind reading. Business Confidential A stack of regular business cards are used to demonstrate psychometery and clarvoiance. A volunteer draws a simple image on any business card it is then mixed and lost into the stack the performer talks of the old mediums and how they could divine information from an object that is personalised. The business cards are slowly dealt until the performer thinks they have it at which point it is placed sight unseen under the spectators hand. Now the impossible happens as the performer duplicates the drawing down to the finest detail. In The Shadow Of Banachek Marc pays homage to a modern master and inspiration with a direct easy to do visual coin bend that is ready to go in an instant a reputation maker that creates a souvenir that will be kept for years. The audience see you with empty hand take a coin from a spectator. The coin is held in one hand only and the audience help create an energy at which point your hand is opened and the coin eerily bends at the finger tips again it is cleanly handed back to the spectator. Clearly Predictable A chosen hour is thought of a card freely selected and an ESP symbol chosen. Three outcomes from hundreds of possible combinations all of which are clearly predicted in a single photograph in your wallet which has been in view from the start.
