Sorry to bring this up again.
I have briefed the whole 10 pages of this thread, I find it rude that you guys are really being harsh on AndyAce. Instead of insulting him and thinking that E is the best place to buy magic in the world how about be more considerate and critisize with some manner? You guys are doing the exact opposite of what T11 is all about. This isn't E, this is another place.
Thanks Eddie!
I'm glad that there are gentlemen around here.
Good post. This is how people should have gone about it. Except just because Aces CIB is unknown and not super super hyped with a retarded teaser trailer on top of it means that his CIB is unoriginal and not cool.
Thanks for being then one of the few who said there opinion maturely.
I STRONGLY agree with what you just pointed out. Just because, people don't actually know you personally, doesn't give anyone the right to be rude. if they have an opinion, they should express it poilitely...That said i do not want to make it anymore off topic than it is.
Thanks Jack and socter!
Sealed & Stuck is my original CTB. I put in alot of time and effort on this series of CTBs. I don't plan to ever release these CTBs. But after seeing a demo video of it, magicans over the world requested me to release it asap.
If some people have opinions about my CTB, I hope they can express them maturely and politely, just like Eddie here.
But I do see their point that it doesn't look nearly as good as what you said Andy. You said no coverings or anything like that, but you really are covering when you shake the bottle. That is not neccessary and you are covering almost half the bottle for me to even see the coin inside the bottle. The shaking makes it even worst, there is no point in shaking the bottle.
For those who want to watch the demo video just google it. You should be able to find it.
First of all the shaking is not really a cover, it is a convincer to show that the coin is really inside the bottle. They can see the coin moving inside the bottle when I shake it.
2nd, I did not cover half of the bottle. I only covered less than 1/4 of the bottle. I'll pm you a photo to show you that.
If you watched the demo video, I was holding the bottom of the bottle, so that my hands won't block the penetration (the coin penetrates in the middle of the bottle)
I can barely see the penetration as well because of you covering. Also you shouldn't have edited it after you performed the effect. That makes it even more suspicious.
The effect can be clearly seen in the demo.
I show the coin and bottle as 2 separate objects at the first 5 seconds of the video.
On 0.03 I showed the front and back of the bottle to the audience, so they can see it is just a normal bottle.
On 0.05 I push the coin through the side of the bottle.
Between 0.06 and 0.08 you can clearly see the coin MELTS through the bottle and sinks to the bottom.
The cut did not really cut anything important. Those who own Sealed & Stuck would know that.
No bottle switches or sneaky moves after the video is cut.
The cameraman(who is just one of the audience) actually put down the camera and tried to examine the bottle. That's why the video is cut. -_-
From 0.18 to the rest of the video you can see the reactions of the audiences.
If you say that Stuck & Sealed is what you are really saying, re-film it(doesn't have to be in front of audiences) and please do not cover half the bottle and please show us the coin in the bottle before opening it because I couldn't see it right in the Demo
Like what I said I did not cover half of the bottle. I'll pm you a picture to prove that to you.
The coin is really in the bottle before opening. Just ask people who already purchased it. The big coin is really inside the bottle, and it is impossible to get it out.
But the idea is really great, instead of a fast paced penetration, you made a slow and make it more clearly to see the penetration. I just wished you would've done a better performance and camera in your demo
Thank you!
I want the audience to clearly see the penetration, so I tried my best to make it slow, visual and open. The hand is not covering the coin, and the hand can be shown empty right after you push the coin it. That is the kind of penetration I want to achieve. From the audience's reactions I knew they prefer the slow pentration to the fast penetration.
Actually I already have a few other demo videos. But I found out that the live performance looked the best as you can see the reactions of the audiences.
