The Sapphire Collection (2 DVD Set) by Richard Osterlind

I 45 år har Richard Osterlind været en af magi og mentalismes mest produktive skabere, og The Sapphire Collection er en fejring af denne milepæl.

Med femten nye og originale Osterlind-kreationer er dette sæt med to dvd'er, ligesom hans legendariske Mind Mysteries-serie, bestemt til at blive en vigtig visning for både håbefulde og professionelle mysteriekunstnere. Du vil se dette kraftfulde nye materiale fremført foran et entusiastisk og ærefrygtindtaget publikum og derefter blive taget bag gardinet, mens Richard sammen med medvært Jim Sisti dissekerer disse effekter i minutiøse detaljer.

Hvad mere er, The Sapphire Collection ser anderledes ud end nogen anden magi- eller mentalisme-DVD, du nogensinde har set. Optaget i en spændende filmisk stil af en filmskaber, vil du mærke energien fra forestillingerne og umiddelbarheden af forklaringerne på en hidtil uset måde.

Effektivt materiale præsenteret og undervist på en original og overbevisende måde, vil genskabe dig med den rene kraft af stærk og direkte mentalisme udført og undervist af en af kunstens mest respekterede og indflydelsesrige udøvere og lærere.

CONTENTS

Disc 1

HANDS OFF - A stunning card effect that has baffled every person who has seen it! A card is freely selected from a deck and placed into the middle. You name where it is and what the name of the card is from across the room. You never touch the deck!

POOR MAN'S BOOK TEST - An incredibly direct book test done with any borrowed book! This is appropriate for close-up or stage.

THE OSTERLIND READ - A new approach for doing a stage reading with a killer climax! Richard Webster now uses this in his show!

MIND READING WITH CARDS - A spectator freely chooses a card without looking at it. She guesses what the card is and you tell her the card she guesses! Nothing is written and the card is only in her mind!

QR TRANSPARENT FORCES - A thoroughly entertaining effect with the new Transparent Forces bag. Not only is the effect totally new, but the handling allows the spectator to take the bag into their own hands when making the selection!

3SP - Perhaps the best routine ever with an ESP deck! Three separate sections are all impossible with the routine growing in amazement as it progresses!

WHISPERING DIE - An improved handling for this masterpiece of close-up mentalism with an ending that is totally impossible If you own this already you will be delighted. If not, you will want to order one right away!

PERFECTED ADD-A-NUMBER - This is one of the highlights of this set! Numbers chosen by the audience are added up in the open. You show your "sealed in an envelope and folded" prediction that matches the real numbers chosen by the audience!

THOUGHTS ON MENTALISM 1 - The first half of an incredible talk between Richard and Jim. This essay cuts to the heart of what mentalism is!

Disc 2

VINYL FOLDER Q&A - An incredible Q&A routine that you can put together with items from your local stationary store for under $50.00 and use the rest of your life! The tips and handling are worth ten times the cost of this entire set!

NUMERIC VORTEX - See Richard use this RECENT creation in a routine that kills! This timely effect is current and thought provoking!

WANTED: DEAD OR ALIVE - A routine where you use some of your business cards and pencils to perform a stage effect! Richard and Jim cover many ideas and variations.

OUT OF THE ROOM SELECTION - Taken from Kaplan's The Fine Art of Magic, this staggering routine is on a par with Richard's own Challenge Mind Reading!

CHECK EFFECT - A routine where a bill or your paycheck is freely placed in one of five envelopes which you later identify without touching them and from across the room! You can use this as the main feature in your act!

PENDULUM ROUTINE - Richard's unique approach for using a pendulum. You can combine this idea in many ways with other pendulum effects you perform. The routine adds a new dimension for using a pendulum!

ALMOST REAL PREDICTION - Richard's variation for the fantastic Jack London effect. Richard has updated the routine to make it modern and logical. You can do this stage effect at any time and any place with just an ordinary pad and pen! This is knowledge you cannot afford not to have!

THOUGHTS ON MENTALISM 2 - Richard and Jim complete their discussion on mentalism and the successful presentation of this wonderful art
