You mean his poor handling didn't give it away?

It's just a pretty standard colour changing deck routine. There are hundreds littered all over pages of magic books, and this video isn't very special in comparison.

what would be a good place to learn a color changing deck routine then, like what is considered the standard for people trying to learn

The one in Card College 5 is good, take a look at Derek Dingle's Colour Changing Triumph too.

I disagree - I thought it was quite smooth handling. If I had no knowledge about how this kind of effect works, I would be fooled

The first colour changing deck I learnt was in Gregory Wilson's Card Stunt dvd - a very good dvd - go buy it if you have any interest in cards!

Usually I agree with you but honestly I thought this was a teaching video, yes his movments were physically smooth but that was about all everything was exposed. Perhaps I'm becoming even more tainted as time passes.
