Multiplying Balls

Postby ultimatecreate » Feb 9th, '06, 21:23



FINALLY!

After MANY problems Ive worked out how to edite movies and here it is! Filmed in my pit of a uni room, after just waking up with a hangover - I now present Multiplying Balls! Very unprofessional compared to many of the guys Ive seen on here, but i promise to make more of an effort next time.

Hope you enjoy + please leave some feedback - all comments welcome :D

Many thanks!

Alex

I like the multiplying balls effect. But, I don't like the way you presented it. Too much waving of the hands. Try and make it look more natural.

Ok, so you do need to wave the hands but you don't need to wave it so much. It's like you're trying to say "look... there is DEFINITELY nothing weird or anything in my hands".

A good effort there and as Stevebo said, a little too much hand waving for my liking. It distracts from the effect.

you need to slow down.
I also note that when you display the balls, there is more of your hand showing than ball.
try and hold your hand flatter.

I agree with the waving comments as well.
all focus should be on the balls.

you're like Yoda.you dont say much, but what you do say is worth listening to....
