Your pass makes you the Her-man
Dude,
Pass looks cool on video...from that angle. All you need to do is do your magic with people standing directly above you while you sit on the ground...and it will look gold.
Jokes aside - the pass is a good idea in concept. Seems like you are using the Herman pass concept in action. If this is true...it also makes me assume that the angle you gave us is THE only angle that it can be done efficiently.
ALL passes will flash - which is why they shouldn't be done under heat. However, this one may only look good from this angle...as the pass, even on camera has it's weaknesses. The packet seems to grow, also...I can just imagine how bad the flash is head on. This "new pass" seems to draw heat to the moment the pass is done....but ideas, similar to this, have been used on the off beat.
This brings me to my next point - seperate from this pass, but related - why does everyone ask for feedback through Youtube? Close up magic is not meant for cameras - as the deception occurs through many other means than just visual elements - if you don't understand what I mean by that, you may want to skip this.
Close up magic on video is the worst concept I have ever seen - it breaks the rule....never repeat an effect twice...as they can examine it over and over by play. Even when you do fool them, people don't care as they have seen better in special effects. The strenth of what we do in both practice and performance is LIVE performance.
When you set up your cameras from the most desirable angle....and in the space (visual frame) you choose...how does that help your magic? It will never prepare you for real world performance. I understand the strengths of learning and sharing on video...but there are many weaknesses of taping sloppy magic and putting it over the internet.
Anyhow - at least your pass didn't flash - from this angle - real world - not so sure. Thanks for sharing - however, I hope that our magic brings us together in real life and we can share in the way that was intended. Through a brotherhood.
Cheers.
