hi i want to start in mentalism anyone can intro some dvd that i can get. i prefer those that doesn't require so much card involve

Richard Osterlind's/Banachek's series, Max Maven's Videomind. Not too bad I would say. You can also check out Pam's show at suntec, I'm sure it will be fruitful for you. :)

Banachek's PSI volume certainly. Not much cards involved, basically stuffs like paper, pen, envelope etc.

Richard Osterlind's Mind Mysteries series are good too.

You'll learn about his breakthrough card system. ;)

all the stuff mentioned above are great, but I'd like to recommend you look at books.

Tony Corinda's 13 steps to Mentalism and Anneman's Practical Mental Magic is a good place to start.

The great thing abt mentalism is, because of the nature of the methods are no as visually necessary as other genre of magic, a lot of the really good stuff are in books.

And most of the pengiun/ellusionist educated magicians cannot be bothered to read books.
So there's lotsa good stuff to do that has not been done to death by everyone else who download the ID. B)

Nicely done.

Your development as a competent magician is stifled if you depend on the likes. Think - today's material is built on older stuff. Hardly anything is totally original without a reference from the old days.

Go back to traditional material. My money's on Corrinda.
