not bad lighting lets you down a bit to much sun glare, but excecution was good bit wobbly and slightly telling on the reset.
as the actress said to the bishop its a little harder to get it back in when youv'e taken it out for a bit. :wink: :wink: :lol:

That box behind your performance. Can you re-record it without the box? The focus in a levitation is on the novel gap underneath you, but it's all black in your video :wink:

also, you should levitate to the top of the box because there is no point of the box from the spectater's point of view if your not levitating to it. :wink:

Yeah, and I know this isn't the case (I have both masterminds volumes) but the lighting actually makes it look like youare still standing on the ground...

:D

The jerking movements and lack of grace tip the gaff, as do the hard shadows and poor lighting.

You need to keep a check on your body jerks and fluidity... you're able to video yourself, which is a great start. Use the video as a reference to improve.

A good start, but much more practice needed. I think we all know 'who' and 'what' you're emulating here, and it just looks way too obvious.

Keep practicing and good luck!

just took another look and i think your main problem is your too straight, you need to lean more.
this levitation works best if you float towards then onto the box rather than up and down near it if you catch my drift. :lol:
