This lecture most likely has something to offer you. That's both a blessing and a curse.

I like Marc Oberon a lot, he is a very talented magician. What I like about him is that he is a very visually-oriented magician and that's what I was hoping to get a lot of, since visual magic is a weak area of mine.

Instead I got some. His zombie ball presentation is inspiring. I don't even like zombie ball but I came away wanting to perform it. "Clean Cash" is a favourite mine and he explains it and even offers a brand-new handling idea. His flash production of a ring on a rope was a strong selling point for me in the teaser... but that routine can, and was, explained in about a minute.

Then there was the mentalism, which felt like it was probably about 50% of the lecture. That's where it started to lose me. If you're a magician looking to incorporate more mentalism into your act then will probably be happy. However, as a former mentalist I can point you in the direction of tons of better resources for strong mentalism. While Oberon's lecture does have some good work to share on multiple outs, I don't view him as an authority on mentalism. I see him as an authority on visual stand-up magic which is why I bought the lecture. And so although the other reviews and the product description were clear that he discussed some mentalism I did not realize it would be so much of the lecture, and that disappointed me because it just wasn't what I was looking for.

So I give it a 3/5. It will definitely have something for you, but while his strong areas shine his less-strong areas take up too much time.

I've always liked Marc's thinking.

He goes into a lot of detail about how position yourself, stand, look etc. As well as some good ideas in the mentalism area...

You get the opportunity to observe a Masterclass from one of the most ingenious creative minds not only in magic circle's but on the Planet !This lecture is a complete learning experience from start to finish as Marc was generous enough to share & divulge the secret inner workings of his most prized creations! Marc's unique style is reflective not only
In the brilliance of the logic,structure & methods of his effects but as an engaging & captivating Entertainer ! he's not just a performer of magic he is magic !This lecture is a must for every serious student of the art from the aspiring neophyte to the burnt out over payed dues sorcerer!

Absolutely Fresh!

The best lecture I've seen in recent years, this is the first time I've been exposed to Marc's thinking and philosophy and it's absolutely for me!

There is simply nothing like this, while I recognise it's not for everyone, this lecture is certainly perfect for any magician looking to understand magic choreography and enhance their act to the smallest detail.

Now I just need to get the book.

Marc Oberon LIVE is excellent!! This is of course because I am a fan of his, but if you are not familiar with his work you might mistake his modest personality as that of a lesser magician. This is of course untrue as Marc has many years experience and a shelf full of awards. The linking cards trick alone is worth the price, along with other great routines like his tuned deck. He is super creative and will make you look like a genius with his line of products, his expertise and wisdom.
