The Hypnotic Factor from Hypnotist Bill Gladwell, the newest DVD project by MAK Magic. On this DVD, Bill Gladwell uses his 20 years experience on predicting and influencing the thoughts and actions of others by combining Psychology, NLP and Hypnosis to teach you 7 effects that can be used close-up or on stage PLUS a bonus section on the most requested, hottest Hypnotic technique, the Handshake induction. Contents include: CARD INSTALL--With a few questions to learn how your spectator makes both conscious and unconscious choices, you lead them to deal only those cards that you have covertly installed in their mind AND THE SPECTATOR HAS COMPLETE CONTROL OF THE DECK AT ALL TIMES! THREE CARD INSTALL--Ideal for the stage and larger groups, Three Card Install utilizes three different people. Each person chooses a card, concentrates on their card, and you name all three cards and just like Card Install, the spectators have complete control of the deck at all times. IN SYNC--After explaining what it really means to know another person so well that you can finish each others thoughts, you hand a deck of cards to Spectator 1. Spectator 1 freely chooses a card from the deck that THEY ARE HOLDING, remembers it, and places it back in the deck. The deck is then passed to Spectator 2. Spectator 2 concentrates on the face down deck until they get a "feeling". When Spectator 2 chooses a card from the deck that THEY ARE HOLDING, it matches the card that Spectator 1 chose. LIE DETECTOR--With a few calibrating questions, you quickly learn when your spectator is telling the truth and when they're telling a lie. You demonstrate this by allowing your spectator to freely choose a card. After four simple questions, you are able to name their card. COLD BUSINESS--A great way to get your business card into the hands of your spectators! Several spectators secretly write one word on the back of your business card. The business cards are thoroughly mixed, and you proceed to analyze the handwriting on each card describing the personality of the writer. You then hand the card to the person who wrote each word. You end with an elegant mind read of the last spectator's word. REVERSE PSYCHIC READING--A spectator chooses several cards which "mean something to them". You proceed to give a psychic reading based on the cards they have chosen WITHOUT EVER SEEING THE CARDS. During the reading, you name the cards that you believe were chosen based on your psychic intuition. When the cards are revealed, you have accurately named each card. COLOR BLIND--Four different color cards are placed on the table in front of your spectator. Your spectator is asked to name the color of each of the cards, and they name the colors. Using hypnosis to create a series of belief changes in your spectator, they can no longer recognize the correct color of each card. Your spectator now believes that each color is something different. BONUS: HYPNOTIC HANDSHAKE INDUCTION--What everyone wants to know how to do... place your spectator in a trance instantly and confidently.
