iNeck

[Linear Patterns]

Hi guys. I created this effect called iNeck and I would like to hear your opinion on it. I can assure you that it is not video editing and I will be happy to film a live performance.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X0LGgZ6B6EA

Looks cool!

How angel friendly is this?
How practical is this?
Can you do this with borrowed headphones?
Does it involve a gimmick?

I know these are many questions, but I hope you can answer them though

Hi KonTw! This trick looks best from a 160 degree angle directly in front of you. People can watch from behind but it doesn't look as good. Where it is most vunrable is your immediate right and left but with enough practice it should be fine.

I perform this on a regular basis and although it uses a gimmick I have developed a very sneaky headphone switch which allows you to do it with "borrowed" headphones. Everyone has apple headphone nowadays so it shouldn't be a problem

people probably dislike your video because they think it's a camera trick (edited) , well is it ? hahaha

No. It says it isn't a camera trick or editing in his post.

Camera trick or no, the video is very jumpy and low quality. You could pull off a lot that could not be done in person with those conditions.

I like it on principle, but until I see a cleaner video I'm skeptical.

I never thought of that before but low quality does make magic effects look a lot cleaner. I would appreciate a live performance filmed in better quality.

will do guys! I hope to have a video up within a few days

a performance for people would be appreciated as well

It does very much look like editing.. whether it was on accident or not there is a visible shift of your entire frame the moment it pulls through. Please do a live performance.

Looks close to the method of a trick that the name has escaped me. The effect I am thinking about uses a rope through solid object like a pole or street sign?

Could you possibly be thinking of what Jimmy Fingers does in his Penguin Live Lecture, his silk through microphone stand? Now that you mention it, it does look similar.
