Since i see a lot of junk battles like "double lift battle" and "daniel madison battle," I decided to create something that will attract magicians who are slightly more knowledgeable and experienced.
A card control battle... precisely what you're thinking. Chose the most economical, invisible card control you know, and film it for a camera. I don't think you need to film in front of an audience, as it is just a control, and you'd have to prepare a routine or something if you're actually going out to perform. This also gives us a chance to assess angles, etc, and overall efficiency of the sleight you chose.
If you don't know where or how to start about this, try filming from a spread (where a spectator would freely chose a card). You might possibly end the video after performing the control and placing the deck down on a table/mat (or wherever you perform it). Then, show where you have controlled the card to.
We can even add something where we use the control to achieve some part of a routine, but that's for later discussion.
thanks, and hope you'll participate
