Shiels Effect (Book) And An Evening With Doc Shiels (DVD) (Combo)

THE BOOK: This 72 page book (21 cm x 14.5 cm, perfect bound) was originally published in a limited edition. It created a sensation and went out of print very quickly. You could search on eBay and be lucky to find one copy coming up per year and find it sold in the hundreds of dollars. The book itself has achieved legendry status. So what great secrets does it contain? Well it does cover a section on spoon bending in Chapter One. But this is not a book of mentalism secrets. Any magic store has shelves weighed down with such tomes. Every magician and mentalist's library is full of books and DVDs crammed with the secrets of some of the greatest minds of our craft. The Shiels Effect is the book that shows you how to leverage that information. How you can become the stuff of romantic legend … the next psychic superstar! A top soccer player like David Beckham is on a high salary. But he is able to leverage his position to bring in lucrative multi-million sponsorship deals. So why wouldn't you leverage your skills and talents – the skills you may already have to bring you more publicity, more celebrity status and more income. Even if you don't want to achieve all the trappings of international stardom, surely as a performer shouldn't you be seeking to become the local celebrity, so that when they are looking for a service you provide, you are the one who pops into their mind straight away? Right here in this book the plan, the mindset are laid bare. The secret ingredients that go to make a psychic superstar. No other book has delved so deeply into the subject of psychic superstardom and how to achieve it. No other book has laid out a step-by-step plan (two separate plans in fact, one for a man and one for a woman). THE DVD: Doc retired from active performing twenty years ago to devote himself to his avocation – art. (You may recall that the late Chan Canasta, while at the top of his profession also retired to devote his life to painting). Irish magician Pat Sullivan traced to a remote part of Co. Kerry in South West Ireland and coaxed him to come and talk to the Cork and Kerry magicians. Fortunately this very special evening was recorded and is preserved now for your enjoyment. Sit down with a pot of strong coffee or a generous portion of your favorite beverage, pop in this DVD, relax and enjoy an evening's company with Doc Shiels. Doc will regale you with stories from his early days as the boy magician performing at the local mission for deprived children, when he was barely older than they were. Hear what happened when he switched a magician's spring snake for a real one. How he developed his interest in Bizarre Magick (Doc was one of the founders of this genre). What were the FIVE WORDS that caused long queues to see one Blackpool sideshow illusion? If you do the spider woman sideshow illusion, this could make you a lot of money, and if you don't you just might go and get one! Doc will tell you a lot more about raising the Loch Ness Monster and makes a suggestion that could achieve similar levels of publicity for you. Discover how he came to be known as 'Doc'. Learn how the disembodied head of Princess Raman Ra handled a heckler – not something you would use yourself but very funny! If you're looking for tricks – they're not here. This is an entertaining seventy minutes spent with one of magic's most intriguing characters, a man who lived the life he chose, answered to no one, developed a new genre in magic, contributed widely with numerous books and magazine articles and achieved international publicity. It will also fill you in on the background to some of the material in The Shiels Effect. For the technically minded this is not a studio quality production. It was taped with one camera. There's no special lighting. The sound is OK. Don't come back bitching that it's not studio quality. It's perfectly watchable and perfectly audible. And hugely entertaining! Running Time Approximately 1hr 10min
