Nice entry. The Ace routine was good, as the cuts were fast.


Try to work on the one handed close. It was not that smooth.
Also, try to find a way to flip the deck from face up to face down besides turning it.

Actually, that Ace production is fro Ninja 1, I think.

Turkeysub WILL lol enter this contest, thought he wasn't, but it turns out he is.

I will be posting my vide up today.

Peace

Decided to elaborate to help you out a bit:

Overall: A decent entry. The good thing, was that it was uncut. Work a bit on your flourishes (its important since this is a flourish contest)

Special Effects: Just at the beginning when the body appeared.

Ripping off the paper: A different and interesting removal...lucky the last paper had rolled off screen.

Taking out the packet: it was a common move, but you'll find another way. Too bad you didn't throw the box towards the camera. Would have added to the effect.

Over 360 turn in hands: speed it up a bit, and it will look like one of the deck flips.

Waterfall shuffle: tilt the bridge next tiem so we could see it.

Thumb fan with one hand close: all I can say for fanning to everyone is to keep practicing them. You may not think it does much, but wait and keep doing it. Magically it will appear. The one hand close sould be done a bit smoother with one motion. Just practice beding your fingers all the way.

Split spread: Kind of missed it a few times. That's alright. I remember trying to do it for the first few times. Try pushing down on the "peak" a bit with the already holding hand. The otehr hand then is able to grab and split easier.

Dribble: They were both smooth and that's what's good. Though they aren't the Andaconda, you have the dribble down pretty well.

Putting down the pack: Good energy and enthusiasm!

Triple cut and revealing ace: A bit different than what was on Ninja, but I think your way is actually easier. When I learned it from Ninja a long time back, I could not get that top packet to drop. Hopefully you did not bend your cards too much by hitting it when revealing.

Triple cut in the hands: Ninja teaches this very simply. Try to mix up the packets a bit more, since this was pretty easy to follow (and even in Brad's hands)

Overhand shuffle and revealing ace: Try to be a bit more discrete when in jogging. Practice, and soon you'll be able to have only a half an inch. I didn't follow the rest of the shuffle which was good. It looked like a real shuffle. Practice a bit on revealing if you want. You will then be able to do this on only one push.

Revealing: Hmmm...I can't say anything on this one.
