How does Ed Rupert choose his volunteers?
Ed Rupert begins his show, “CHANGES IN ATTITUDES” with a quick introduction of what hypnosis is… and what it is not. He then explains to the audience the criteria to be a volunteer and what one should expect should they decide to join him on stage. Ed Rupert then makes a call for volunteers and randomly brings up between 15-20 volunteers on stage. Ed Rupert prefers to pick his own volunteers. Your student leadership or association board might not be ideal hypnosis subjects. Besides, bringing up volunteers ‘on the spot’ allows the audience to see that nothing is ‘set up’ or prearranged with volunteers and furthermore prevents volunteers from certain ‘clicks’ from being the only people to take part in the show.
