They were both good but I have to say that Chris' is better. I think your right hand had too much movement Immortal101Prophecy. But that's just my opinion on the matter of movements. :)

Chris, that was masterfully done! A real piece of work that was. I loved hearing good old beethoven in background as well! :D

Hey guys,

Thanks again for all your feedback. I am really glad you have all enjoyed my video.

Truly fantastic mate, it did not look like you used the conventional method to perform the vanish.


Leighton, thank you very much for you comments. I worked hard on this video to ensure it was as close to ‘perfect’ as possible.

Immortal,

Great video, you have the execution of Revolution down well but I do have some comments that would make your vanish more powerful. I will PM you due to exposure.

Sorry I have to dissagree with you, Chris's was great

Leighton and Costas, thanks again for viewing and commenting.

Costas, glad you appreciated the music, I felt it worked well for the move and of course the music itself is magical.

Thank you all for taking the time to watch my video. To get the video to the standard I felt was needed to make it as good as it could be I worked closely with many members over at Ellusionist including Brad Christian who gave me some invaluable advice in the Revolution forum.

I am glad the hard work paid off.

Thanks again!

I've tried it too!

When I saw the demo and later your perfomance Chris, I just had to have this trick! :D

I bought it, and damn glad I did! This is just great, and not very difficult.. This is what I love with magical illusions often they are so simple no one ever figures out how it's done! :lol:

I tried it out, just an hour after I watched the DVD:

JacKaLen, good work, that was stealthy and smooth. The only advice I have to give is make sure you follow the instructional video's advice regarding the position of your hand when your going to pick up the coin.

I loved the way you slid the coin across your hand just before you made it dissapear! :wink:

JacKalen, I'll be honest with you, as I am guessing you are looking for constructive critisism, I am not that happy with this performance but I can't say mucn on an open forum so I will PM you to tell you what I think you can do to improve this.

Just thought....

Postby JacKaLen » May 27th, '06, 19:02

I certainly think Chris did a mich better perfomance than I did, and many others. I just thought this was a thread for "Revolution Coin Vanish" in general, where you could talk about the effect and so on.. But my bad..
:shock:
Chris it's all your's, once again GREAT Performance! Don't think I'll ever gonna perfom it that smooth! :wink:

Hey guys, sorry for not replying to this thread for a while.

Thanks Crazy Ace….while I am very happy with my video, I don’t know if I would go as far to say its better than the Revolution demo video, but thanks for the kind words.

JaKaLen, I am really glad my video helped in your decision to buy the effect, it really is an incredible illusion, one I personally use all the time.

Hey Grum, I honestly don’t mind if anyone wants to add their video to this thread, however they may get more feedback from creating their own thread, not sure though to be honest.

JacKaLen wrote: Chris it's all your's, once again GREAT Performance! Don't think I'll ever gonna perfom it that smooth! :wink:


JakaLen, I have just viewed your video and I have to agree with Costas here, there is some work to be done on your video, if you like I can send you a PM with my thoughts?

But once again, thanks to everyone who commented on my video, its very rewarding when hard work pays off in such great feedback from fellow magi.

I understand that Revolution was up long before that it was actually released by ellusionist, under this fancy name. How was it called before ? What is its classical name ?
