Rannie, my mentor from the magic cafe, taught me this rountine.

Tell me what you think
, it's a vanish/reproduction of a coin rounine. Very simple, but effective

Love it.

I liked the routine as well, i can see you worked hard to put it togheter and i can only congratulated you.

Although i have to stay critic and there is a pointer or 2 i will suggest you to work on.

The miss-directions, they were present but i did not see its opposite clearly "the direction". For example the last 2 vanish, on the first you establish the patern and on the last you make it vanish completely, thats very good.

But the closed hand wich "should" contain the silver coin need more attentions from everyone even you. There is an old saying : a larger action cover a smaller one.

Your hand must go forward while the other move back and forward to execute something magic over the coin that should be in your hand still.

Also i dunno why but at start it seem like you had something in your hand, probably just because you were playing with your hands, cause i didnt saw anything and your hands were relaxed i think.

Good work.

Let me give you some advice on the way.

First of all, work on misdirection. Your last vanish is too visible. Not only for magicians, but also for laymen. It´s all in your bodymovement and the way you move your hands. Secondly, I am not sure why you are standing in that direction against the camera. I like to watch straight on, and was confused by your angle agianst the camera. That also made me think you had something in your hand, because it got me suspicious.

Keep it up !

Was the misdirection/vanish on the last video better?
