I am not sure if I can post this quesiton, but I saw mike super's chalkboard illusion tonight on Americ's Got Talent and was wondering if someone could point me in a good direction to obtain this effect? I have been also looking for a good digital mentalist chalk board ( not sure if this was it or not). Please PM me if you can't reveal or put anything on this forum .
Thanks Chris |

I don't use them. We have a mentalism routine in "Operation Magic" which uses the Dream Vision prop, and in my stand up act I do a routine using a Mental Epic.

Sounds good- thanks for the help. BTW I noticed from your website that you used to be at Ft. Rucker. I live in Dothan.

It was obvious that Mike Super was using Spirit Slates for the reveal. As for the "zodiac calendar" I rarely find number mentalism as fantastic as others, though in this case I would be interested to know the method. Most fascinating about Mike Super's performance with the Spirit Slates was the method for "Steve" being revealed from Howie. For the most part America's Got Talent has been pretty good about not using creative editing to hide a method. In this case it appeared that there was no previous trick in which the name could have been known and very little time elapsed between Howie announcing the name and the reveal of Steve (which was obviously written so large it could not have been accomplished by a spirit writing utensil). Any ideas?

Did he tell Howy to think of "a" friends name, or to think of "his" friends name. Wasn't sure if he could of had the producers hand him a card earlier for a little dual reality. As for the zodiac that one got me, only thing he would of known would of been their birthdates being they are public domain.

He asked "I want you to think of somebody you have an emotional connection wit. Don't say it. Just a first name. Someone I couldn't possibly know." I checked Howie's social media for any mentions of a personal tragedy or anything that would lead to an educated guess. And the edit literally stays with a single camera shot when he says "Name the name you were merely thinking of for Desmond" and he immediately turns the board. I guess I should take to Twitter and ask Howie
