theory11 — Magic Tricks & the World's Finest Playing Cards

A new amazing color change.

The change itself looks very good, but the cleanup looks nasty and I don't really like that camera angle. I would prefer a specs view of the change to see it in action.
Well the clean-up would have been better if I wasn't the only person holding the camera at the time.
The clean-up for Incognito is very similar to the clean-up for the Jones Change by D&D.

But since I was the only person holding the camera I had to do the clean-up the "NASTY" way to prevent exposure. And the last thing I wanted to do was to expose the clever method to how the change is accomplished.


If you see where I'm coming from.

consider obtaining a tripod.
Any cheap tripod will do if your just interested in making these videos.
 
to much work for somthing to simple. Put it this way, why set up a 100 domino line to realse a mini canipilult witch has a small wooden block on the end of it to fly in the air and hit "start" on a microwave when you can go up and push "start."

Does it look cool? yes, but would it be worth it to use in real life? No.

I don't get what you are saying but the change is simple and didn't require that much HARD work and I mean HARD to the fullest extinct. But it did take some time and effort to pull it off.

The reason it took so long is because this is a type of change and sleight most people don't come across. In fact when I first came across this method it was almost accidental. And at that time I had no idea how I had pulled it off.

It really took only took a little more than 8 weeks to reproduce sufficiently and make it practical.
 
Props for creativity, but for me, not direct enough. Don't like the way you held the card.
I would love to see a vid with a view of what the spectator would see. It would be helpful...
 
It just doesn't look right, funny camera angles, and again I agree what everyone says with the cleanup. The effect itself seems like too much work, it just looks akward.

He already talked about the clean up. He doesnt have a tripod and had to do it all one-handed. Which is why I told him to buy a simple tripod and try to show it again.
 
To add to what's also been said, the twirl of the changed card could be a lot more fluid. I don't mind the change, there are far more awkward ones in existence, but it just doesn't appear to be well practiced enough.
