I would recommend setting up with two similar cards, like the king of hearts and the king of diamonds, so that what Shankmagic mentioned would be less noticeable.

actually, this was the gimmickless version, the pips on the 4 vanish 1 at a time, but the last card before the 4 on bottom was a king of hearts. when the ace vanished it was a 2 of hearts. this is just a bit of constructive critisim. this is also probably not going to be picked up the spectator, but its happened to me. good work

I don't know, I disagree about doing it faster. With the mood set by the music, I think it is really appropriate to treat the clipshift as an elegant move instead of a quick change. Nice handling, maybe use the last clipshift as an ace color change?

Haha, the six threw me off as well. Anyways, good job performing the Clipshift. However, I don't think this effect would be suitable for a real audience, as there's no justification for the cards vanishing. Well, that's unless the cards appear in a different location, or you allow the deck to be examined after the final vanish. Just my thoughts.

Very smooth, I like the idea. i have a question though. Why does it seem that everyone who does videos using the clipshift uses Arrcos? Are they the best cards for the move? Because if they are I'll have to get some.

They are good cards for magic I reckon. Hey I don't understand why the 6 was shown a lot before the trick. At first I was thinking that the trick would somehow revolve around it but it wasn't. Awesome anyway, very smooth.

I liked the mood of the video as well as the shot style and angle. I think the repetition is okay but that the trick will be stronger if performed a little faster. I like the idea of it, as well; it's something spectators would be quite comfortable with. That's some really, really nice music, too. What artist made it?

it was clean but a bit repetitive. I like how all your videos are done in one shot and from the perspective of a live spectator though. 4 stars dogg!
