Not camera editing this time. However there were some suspicious moments in the way you shifted your weight and in your general body language. I don't doubt this could be a very effective illusion, but you made some very subtle mistakes.

Try this: when practicing the illusion in front of a mirror, keep the knees bent like a cat in order to keep your center of gravity stationary at all times. Watch some Tai Chi and martial arts teachers and how they move. You'll note the way that they seem to glide instead of walk because of the way they keep their knees bent and flexible to so that they can move on an even, fluid keel.
 
Well its nothing to lie about...and its not the first time I mentioned it. Although none of you have never seen my house and thats becuase I never make videos at my house unless its on the inside. Most of the videos are filmed over my stage partners house.
 
Not bad but not great. I could barely tell what was going on due to the bad lighting and you took too much time moving things around and whatever. Which was something you could have easily done BEFORE you turned on the camera.
 
I could have but thats apart of the effect-the moving boxes around. THe lighting im sorry for I did it in the basement last night and had to point a lightl directly at it to make it bright. Thats as bright as it gets without me editing more light into it. Thats just a bare click with music.
 
Wait so fiddling around with boxes for no reason.. Is apart of the effect? Couldn't there be something else that you can do instead of screwing with boxes?
