A very nice and smooth performance there. Only comment I have is to make a bigger deal of the coin actually being in the can - show that it is in there before you proceed to tip it out.

Yeah i really like the video, it was really good. Nice and smooth, natural.
And cardza is right, you should put more on that part.

Very nice, and extremely smooth.

Just keep in mind, maybe go slower in displaying the can in real life. I firgured you sped it up a bit since it is a web clip to keep people interested but in real life if slower they can be more convienced. And maybe it is me but i like the effect better if the coin can't just fall out, I think it adds to the impossible-ness of it more.

I actually had a normal can yesterday that it could't!!! I was surprised but reacted quickly enough when the coin would't just drop through.

[edited in case that was exposing the trick]

but when the coin couldn't fit back through the opening he seemed shocked


Kind of giving it away...isn't it?

Thanks,

Why would you take the coin out? It got inside in an IMPOSSIBLE (so it seems) situation, but you simply shake and the coin falls out? Kinda ruins the effect...

I loved the moves at the start to show the vanish to be true, they were fantastic and were done extremely smooth, but as others have said... make a BIG DEAL about the coin being inside, slow down the performance at this point... Do not shake as hard as you did either, it ruins the effect if you know what I mean...

Other than that, good work!

I thought about doing the exact same thing with throwing the can from hand to the other but I couldnt be bothered going to the shop to buy a can just to try it :lol:

Great work, very smooth :D

Very smooth, but I think you should just go a little slower.

Yea, I'd agree with that. It was very smooth but felt "rushed" in a sense.

Very nice.

I know that this isn't really the point, but I loved the way you hit the can just at the break in the music.

By the way, is it just me, or does anyone else practice this one with a specially cleaned coin so that they can still drink the contents of the can afterwards?
