Title: 3 Fly!
kryptikalism - October 17, 2004 04:32 PM (GMT)
anybody here does the 3 fly? any kind of 3 fly at all.. i just got started with it, and i have to say the reactions are rather good. i mean, if we magis claim that we can make one coin travel magically from one hand to another, what better way than to show that than to make the coins appear at your fingertips?
At least, that's what i think.
I also came up with some sort of an ungimmicked 3 fly, but it still needs tweaking. i'll try to post a link to the video soon..

Do not let Jonathan Townsend hear you mention "3 Fly". He'll be pi**ed. ;) . He calls it Visual Coins across or VCA for short. Paul Wilson's Completely Crowded is nice.

Nice vid but a little unclear... But still good :D

Don't really feel safe downloading it from this site, hence didn't watch it.

Anyone seen Lee Asher's Three Stylin'? It's a 3 fly except that it utilises poker chips. Kinda interesting, especially since I'm a fan of asher's... ;)

I'm always wary of sites asking to download their programmes. Seen too many spywares.

This site is safe it online storage space for you to store your stuff and the download is to download the video in it not spyware.
kryptikalism - October 18, 2004 02:59 PM (GMT)
it sure is safe to download from it, no worries mate... :D

Actually i dun feel too good about installing their stuff just so to download files.
From the IT technical point of view, there is no good reason for that at all. HTTP is more than ample to provide for file downloads.
I didn't view the vids either because of that. Is there some other place you can put the videos at?
kryptikalism - October 18, 2004 04:15 PM (GMT)
well morphine, i'm not sure. can you recommend a solution. i'm not really good at this stuff. haha... i found out about the website from illusionist, and i thought that it was good enough to host stuff for me. any ideas, anyone?

i dun see any reasons to install something just to download some files...
i dun see how it can make things safer.

I have seen krpt vid thru msn file transfer and it is quite good. I did feedback to him for pointers and he is quite a cool guy. :P
kryptikalism - October 19, 2004 04:19 AM (GMT)
hahaha.. thanks for the comments zinally. anyway guys, if you wanna watch the vid still, just msn me in the meantime. orangpasar@hotmail.com i'll just send you the file.
kryptikalism - October 19, 2004 11:39 AM (GMT)
my humble apologies for clogging up this thread, but the previous two posts were essentially worthless. i can't seem to share the file. tried everything already. this is the ony available link now:
http://download.35mb.com/kryptikalism/3fly.WMVunless of course, someone help me find a way to host the file.
hope that the moderators can delete the previous posts for me.

i think 3 fly is rather fun to perform, and yea, magical too!
figure - March 9, 2005 08:23 AM (GMT)
am I missing something here? if I have a 3 FLY(ies) with me, I'd be the most lucky male magician. But then again, 3 FLY could mean a 3 inch FLY
kryptikalism - March 21, 2005 01:56 AM (GMT)
to all those who haven't seen a 3 fly effect before, you can find a video of it on my site.
click
herego to magic.
then to videos.

On the topic of 3 Fly's, does anyone else here remember SeanOsiris's "True Fly" that was on Symmatrix's site a while back? :D
-Kev
Magicdow - March 21, 2005 09:22 AM (GMT)
Funny thing, I was browsing at a website today and saw it.
I remembered the whole thing. He once said that there were no extras used.........
You saw the demo? :D

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!
He sent me a free copy after reading that I thought it was crap. I STILL think it's crap. Good times...
Oh yeah, if anyone needs a good laugh or two, you could always do a search on some of the backposts at the Cafe on Sean's True Fly or some of Symmatrix's old products. Gak. I'll always remember Lonnie Dilan's comment on the three fly - "seems more like Trash Fly to me" =D
Yeah, now I hope I don't bump into either guy on the streets or something. But they really WERE that bad, no kidding =/

True FlyDon't be fooled by the description.
Kevin - March 22, 2005 12:36 PM (GMT)
Hehe... I have met and know Sean personally... he's a tad bit unruly, but has some nice stuff. This isn't one of them :P

As far as Mr. Townsend being Pi**ed ... I doubt it .. he is a very mild gentleman.
The term however as I stated to Mr Townsend personally has now become synonymous. Just as Bleach is widely called Clorox and Tape is usually called Scotch Tape.

Front was not bad, but i do not get what are you doing after 0:17. =/
Alexander - February 26, 2010 03:44 PM (GMT)
Interesting....
But maybe its my style, but I find 3 fly looking nicer when its a sharp jerk and the coins goes across instead of the slow shaking presentation.
kser - February 27, 2010 12:23 AM (GMT)
Yesterday was my first time saw three fly and it was awesome! At least the one who was doing it was pro.

Well that isn't really a valid point because you have a specific liking to a certain style .... it can be done any way you prefer.

Did I miss out something? I wasn't trying to make a point. Neither did I say yours was bad.

LOL ... I am looking from below and to me I was showing the coins front and back as I cleaned up the effect ... unfortunately it is self shot so I had no one to tell me how it looked .... I replayed it 30 times and figured ah forget it :) So to answer your question .... I was cleaning up and displaying at the same time ... it looks way better now plus a lot less moving the coins :) That is jsut a teaser anyway for my use ... I will have a better teaser soon.

My friend please don't mistake my reply as malicious .... All I was saying is that as far as the motions go it is personal preference so the reply didn't really make any sense to me in general .... but I did qualify my response with an explaination.

I see. Thanks for clearing that up.
