Sam Wooding - Sam Wooding Lecture Notes 2017

Hello, I am Sam Wooding and These are my lecture notes for 2017. In these notes there are nine effects.

One Envelope Test: An easy and direct drawing duplication. The spectator draws anything, they then place it inside an envelope, the mentalist shows front and back of the envelope and places it away. The mentalist is then instantly able to divine the thought of drawing.

The Mirror: A stunning piece of Propless Mentalism using tic-tacs. You will perform this wherever you go.

Human: Propless Mentalism using Lego blocks. The spectator thinks of a color of a lego block, how many points on top and a structure that they can build. The performer is then able to divine all three pieces of information.

Vale: One of the easiest ways to force a playing card suit. This is a principle that also allows you to force a random word. No eqvioque is used and it is 100% propless.

Complimentary: A spectator writes two completely different things on two slips of paper and the mentalist is able to divine both pieces on information.

Tight Smile: A mentalism effect using time and the spectators phone.


Express Click: A beautiful routine where a spectator thinks of a number and the mentalist is able to divine the number.


ACAASH: Any card at any super hero. A spectator thinks of a card, and names a super hero. The performer deals down one by one, spelling the super hero as they do. The performer turns over the card and it matches the spectators thoughts! But here is the kicker, on the card written is the super hero they just named! This effect has an instant reset which makes it perfect for the walk around performer.

Deactivation: The spectator thinks of the type of coffee they take and the mentalist is able to divine, how many sugars they take (if they take any) and the type of coffee they take.

Bonus Ideas: Five bonus ideas, including how to build and create a character, new insight on readings, how to construct psychological forces and a brand new multiple out principle!

This PDF isn't just something you will pick and and read. This PDF will inspire you, it will challenge you to see how you can change you're performances and you're style.

All the effects are specifically designed for the performer on the move. That way you don't need massive or odd looking props!
