Perfect

My Rating:

Such a brilliant DVD. Well presented and packed full of modern mentalism effects.
The instructions are clear and Colin does a great job at giving you extra performance ideas for each effect as well.
The audience reactions are also great. Some of the methods are so simple yet so effective so you can spend more time on presentation to astound people.
Each time I play the DVD I find another little gem of information that is helpful or gives me a new idea for a way of presenting the effect.
Would recommend this to anyone looking into modern mentalism and looking for some effects to perform on stage.
Can't really recommend this DVD enough and hoping Colin is planning another DVD full of even more amazing effects.

Brilliant introduction to Stage mentalism

My Rating:

A great tutorial and a nice welcome for the newbie to stage mentalism. The effects are fantastic and the routines are great.

The teaching and tips given by colin in this DVD set are spot on and really set you on your way to stage mentalism.

Very enjoyable watch and well worth buying!

Very Well Taught

My Rating:

To be honest, this is a great dvd set for starters in *stage mentalism*. It does have some close up but not anything that someone willing to spend this much money wouldn't know. However, the stage effects can be very useful for starters and has some very nice ideas.

It is very well taught from many angles and very clearly laid out. Nice box set, its not amazing mentalism, but definitely recommend it for starters in stage mentalism.

Excellent, Enjoyable and Easy to Learn

My Rating:

This is a well thought out DVD picking apart Colin's 1hr show and explaining the reasoning and process behind the performance and the effect.
The explanations are done as a table discussion with Mark Elsdon in which each effect is clearly explained and the main points reiterated.
Enjoyable to watch as well as learn some great mentalism.
In the 4 DVDs there must be 6 hours of footage so it feels like very good value.
I would certainly recommend this to anyone with an interest in improving their mentalism routines.
