Well you PM'd me and I replied but here's my response here too
Hmm, I like the idea of finding the aces. Like a 3 card monte game. So nice thinking
A few things I would mention though:
- Work on getting your breaks: At the moment you're fiddling around at the back to get your breaks and it's very open and obvious as to what you're doing. A tip I find useful is always pull down - never up. If you pull up to get your break, they will see it. They can't see pulling down.
- Being light: The cards are not going to run away buddy, loosen up your grip on the cards especially when doing doubles etc. The more light your grip
(whilst remaining solid) the more open and fair it will seem without drawing attention to it.
- Smoothness: Really try and get your effect down so you're performing the sleights in a fluid motion, each one flowing from one to the next. It'll make the effect seem much nicer and more pleasing to watch.
- Clarity: For me, because there was no patter, I found the effect at first to bequite confusing. Using patter
(even text on screen) can definitely help explain what you're doing. Rather than it seeming you're doing it becase you can.
Am I making sense?
