Saturday Night Contest - False Video Challenge

[jonraiker]

In light of our latest release from the hands of Homer Liwag - the Filipino False Faro - tonight's SNC will be about keeping everything under... control. This challenge will require the use of a camcorder / webcam / Flip / camera of some sort, as well as a fresh pack of playing cards.

Your task? To create a video demonstrating your favorite cardistry and / or general card handling false cuts, shuffles, and so forth. Note that you must prove the pack is in new deck order immediately following the demonstration.

Please try to keep all submissions under a minute in length. Videos can be uploaded to YouTube, Vimeo, etc. The winner will be chosen based on a number of factors including technique, production, and - of course - passion (and not in the romantic sense). All submissions must be in by 11:00pm EST for judging.

Tonight's winner will receive a 1-on-1 of your choosing, completely on the house. Looking forward to viewing the submissions. Good luck guys!

Awesome, I just came up with a false cut a few days ago, and I have a fresh deck of Centurions. I have been practicing all day, I guess it's time to finally put it to work.

[jake the snake magic]

ok so i found one in order deck but if i like drop it, than im skrewed and also... does it have to be a made up flourish?

 

[jonraiker]

Does it have to be our own creation?

Negative. Original moves are always nice, but they're not required for this one.

I just realized that if I mess up during the flourish I will have to get a new deck of cards!

...or you could just put the same pack back in new deck order? Just a thought.

 

[TheBlack&WhiteIllusionist]

Cool, but I thought you said it has to be a new deck?

 

[aJohnson]

New deck order, not a new deck .

 

[Jack Webster]

new deck ORDER!!!!! OMGZ

 

[Dylan P.]

Hey Guys!!! All he said was , and I quote...

...And a fresh pack of playing cards.

and

...You must prove that it is in new deck order...

That doesn't mean go blow all your money on five new decks incase you mess up. It means that you should organize one of your decks in the original order and display that it's in order. Then, do the false shuffle, then display that they remain in p;lace.

Don't blow your cash on new decks.

 

[James Smith]

I just finished filming, and I'm importing it to my computer now. I got it all in one take. Whew!

 

[Jack Webster]
