Diesel Magic of Christmas - Hypnosis Videos

This Christmas, Diesel decided to celebrate by giving the childhood joy of the season back to some of its most suggestible customers.  Over three episodes, we get to see them experience the Anticipation, the Joy and the Goodwill of Christmas, all while behaving like happy 5 year old children.

Head Hacking collaborated with Super Heroes, Skin Flicks and The General Assembly to create the most hypnotic series of advertising videos made to date.  We took 80 volunteers through the casting process, from which 10 were selected.  These wonderful hypnotic subjects then spent a magical day in a very special Diesel store.

Working to a tight story board and script, the directors pushed us to achieve very specific behaviour and ranges of emotions, many of which were achieved in a single take.  The whole team were very methodical and a joy to work with.  Everyone appeared to know their jobs inside out and worked amazingly quickly to achieve the shots that were needed.  The subjects were warm, friendly people and they thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

Prior to the first episode being published, Diesel released a teaser video of the security camera footage.



The first episode, The Anticipation, relives the experience of waking up on Christmas morning as a young child, eager to find and open their presents.


The second episode is The Joy, and this is all about opening presents.


The final episode, The Goodwill, focuses on the inevitable consequences.


We had a lot of fun on this project and feel that the end result looks absolutely stunning.  I hope you enjoyed watching them.

If you're interested in how these videos were made, then luckily Diesel has published Behind The Dreams, a video about how it all came together.


Wishing you a happy winter solstice and a merry new year,

Head Hacking.

Automatic Imagination Model Hypnosis Demonstration

At change | phenomena, the hypnotism conference, 2012, Marcus Lewis demonstrated the Automatic Imagination Model of hypnosis on stage at Kings College London.

Here is a short video of it.

As you will see, the Automatic Imagination Model, developed by Head Hacking Research, allows the production of hypnotic phenomena without a hypnotic induction.  We think it works on many more people than traditional approaches to hypnosis and are dedicated to gathering formal evidence to test this idea.

The Automatic Imagination model is discussed on Ripped Apart audio CD, available at www.headhacking.com/products.

Please post comments on youtube and ask questions via www.headhacking.com/contact.

Ripped Apart Ringtones Free Download

Remember all the lovely acid squelchy noises on Ripped Apart audio CD (the Automatic Imagination Model)?  Well, I've cut them up into phone-friendly loops, suitable for use as ringtones and alert sounds.

There are three zip files, each containing the same 30 ringtones, one for iPhone, one for Android and one for Blackberry/Other.  There is also a short Read Me file that explains what to do with them.

I hope you like them.

Learn to Hypnotise - Free Lessons on You Tube


I am really excited to announce Head Hacking's new video channel where you can learn how to hypnotise in a series of free lessons.

The channel can be found on You Tube here:

The clips are drawn from lectures and trainings we have run around the world. We have included everything from the approach to the wake up and hope you find real value amongst the content. Those of you who are familiar with 'Reality is Plastic' book, 'The Manchurian Approach' DVD and 'The Trilby Connection' DVD will recognise the general structure but I am certain will pick up many subtleties from the demonstrations that will increase your effectiveness.

More videos will be added soon including more techniques, instruction from other hypnotists and much more.
Please share the links with those who have an interest in learning about hypnosis. Any questions based on the clips will be answered and any comments left on the channel much appreciated.
