Sean Fields

(Based on 1 review)
Mentalism is, by its very nature, an implicit art.

But it doesn't have to be!

Sean Fields created a sensation when he published Explicit Content.

With Explicit Footage, Sean continues to push the boundaries of conventional mentalism!

Episode 2 - Benz

Imagine causing a borrowed coin to visibly bend!

In this episode of Explicit Footage, you will learn:
  • The Bounce Bend - The coin bends in MID AIR while being tossed hand to hand!
  • The Shades Change - An unbelievable bend that defies conventional thinking!
  • On Contact - A incredibly simple, and equally visual bend!
  • How to assemble the Benz Bender; quite possibly the BEST coin bender in existence
This is metal bending. Redefined.

Benz is a DVD that contains 3 different presentations for bending a coin. The DVD appears to be a self published effort done in his garage with a single camera shot and a black sheet hung behind him. The DVD quality is only adequate. It mirrors a recent trend to publish a gritty, hip, street magic look. As you look at the cover of the DVD Sean Fields is standing with his arms folded in a typical cool street magician look.

Another curious detail was that the DVD was shot in black and white. I have not idea why, perhaps for that gritty street look, but I found that it took away from the quality of the DVD.

Now for the good news, the methodology and moves shown by Sean Fields are good. Very good! I am sure if he had done this for me live, I would have been fooled. He shows how to bend a coin and how to make the gimmick. He also shows three different handlings for performing a bent coin effect. One uses a signed coin. I really liked that one.

My only complaint concerning this was that since the DVD is shot in black and white and it appears to be a single camera on a tripod, it is difficult at times to see some of the explanations.

If you want to bend a coin this DVD is worth the price of admission.
