Paul Brook – It’s Your Choice

Paul has been using ‘It’s Your Choice’ to perform quick and powerful mentalism during walk-around shows for many years.

Here is what the general principle looks like:

Four cards (containing any information) are shown to the participant, and she freely takes any one of the four cards.

Instantly, the performer can demonstrate, without any doubt, that he knew she would choose that card. This proof is in the hands of the participant on the reverse of the card that has been selected.

Not only that, but the performer can then fully explain how the participant has been influenced in precise detail, and this can be physically proven!

You will be learning a technique that’ll allow you to create a customisable mentalism prop. You can make this prop with items you have at home, and it will work for you 100% of the time.

Once you build the prop and understand the technique to this mentalism utility, you can perform bespoke close-up mentalism that will fit perfectly with any story you want to tell.

‘It’s Your Choice’ will be a perfect fit.

The prop will allow you to create the exact presentation your client desires, perfect for those mentalists working in the corporate and trade show environments.

Paul shares his in-depth creation backstory and logs the changes that have transformed ‘It’s Your Choice’ from a lukewarm performance piece to possibly the most versatile opening effect in close-up mentalism.

For those worried about the skill levels involved in prop creation and performance, rest assured that this effect can be easily made and performed by a novice in the world of mentalism.

Inside the book are a whopping 168 illustrations by Paul, that will help you understand the finer aspects of the required moves and the construction processes.

Great care has been taken to ensure that the written instructions are easy to follow, but illustrations make learning ‘It’s Your Choice’ a breeze.

Once you have learned the mechanics and construction of the props, it will be time to dive into the ample 27 presentations for ‘It’s Your Choice’ that are included between the covers.

With each presentation, Paul aims to share more and more of the subtleties that can be used within the framework of ‘It’s Your Choice’.

These themes go far beyond the normal realms for mentalism effects. You can lift any presentation from the pages to perform them ‘as printed’, if you don’t feel very creative.

The limited edition content features several presentations explicitly designed for the trade show, wedding and corporate markets. If you want to earn money in these types of events, ‘It’s Your Choice’ is a must.

Inside the book, the custom creation workshop will guide you through the real-time prop creation process from start to finish. I am providing you with a running commentary of the nuances you will need to consider as you create your bespoke props.

It’s always great to get the perspective of a world-class professional mentalist, and none other than Banachek has kindly agreed to write the foreword for ‘It’s Your Choice’.
