I thought it was pretty okay. Maybe you'd like to invest in a better webcam? The second clip was... I don't know it felt like a quarter of Mercury.

I've gotta be honest with you dude....it's really not that good at all.

For the 1st clip, doing an elmsley doesn't realy constitute to a trick. I mean..you show 4 face down cards, and 1 of the cards turn face up....and then?
And then what happens? Why do you use 4 cards with you are only going to turn 1 of the cards around? Then you should only use 1 card. What's the purpose of the other 3 cards?
Know what I mean? It's incomplete.

For the 2nd clip, it doesn't make any sense at all to me. You show 4 face up Aces, with a wave, one of the cards turn face down. But then you show it's not one of the 4 cards at all (a 2)?? That means you didn't really cause 1 of the cards to turn face down?? And then later the indifferent card turn back to an ace? So does the card change or does it turn face down? Because when it changed back it didn't turn face down again.
So where's the magic? That the ace become another card? Then how come it's faced down while the ace was face up?
And again, so what about the other 3 cards. Why you using 4 cards in the 1st place when your magic only involves 1 card? Again incomplete.

Learn to do things as a complete routine rather than a little bit here and there of routines. It's like telling jokes 1/2 way. Do you still consider that a joke?
I read in your intro that you don't like to practice your effects. Do you think maybe that's why you are only doing it in bits and pieces?
Don't bother running around soaking up secrets and methods like a sponge. Learn 1 routine, practise it well, and then move to the next.

Don't mean to shoot you down but this is my honest opinions.

I have to agree with Aloy about your 2 clips. Doesnt mean anything at all.

And the way you handle your cards, hmm have to practise more. Maybe its because of the video is jerky.

That was really bad.

Sorry, bro - but if you gave me a chance to rate both videos out of 10 stars, I will probably give... 1 star.

Bad handling, poor entertainment value, not exactly a card change thingamajig - nah. Bad.

Listen to Mr. Aloy there and practise.

Why don't you want or like to practise your magic?

What ur trying to do? i just read ur post in new comer, u said u been studying magic for 8 years, and only experience magic about a year, im under a year too, but i dont really understand what ur trying to show.

8 years? Serious?? Wow, two things,

It's blur

It's uncomprehensible.

The rest were said by aloy, practice more.

I guess what he is trying to show on hte second clip is that he make the ace turn face down and change it to another card, later restore back to all aces, this is the best a can understand form the video.

Sorry brother, 8 years.... i mean do you start turning it into a hobby recently? I am also into magic for 1 year, but i dont really understand the clip well.

Hope to see more improvement on your next video. :D :D

A real piece of advice, get a better webcam. (Logitech's has some of the best webcam)
