hi there!

1: Very nice "variation" of jumping aces
2: Showing all 4 aces before proceding to the inspection of the three pile is a bit weird. We already know that the four aces have appeared on the bottom of the pile. Sure, showing those pile is great (even necessary!) but you could proceed to show them befor unveiling a fourt pile on the Ace of Spade wear the 4 aces would be found. I think that the effect could be more surprinsing that way
3: You seemed to insisted on showing the first ace back and front but you dropped the three other aces in one group... It could seems a little suspicious...

Not too bad, and I liked your variation to avoid the need for the BD. Nice touch.

However, I don't think this trick interprets as well on video, as it does in a live performance. You showed the packet right from the top, and immediately go into the handling. A bit of time misdirection is needed in order to cover up your business. Here, it was too soon, and a reasonably observant spectator would pick up on the major discrepency.

The rest of the effect was done well. I'd be interested in seeing all three phases in one video. This first phase was good - but the other two phases make it even more powerful.

Great job.

I thought it was an awesome video. I'm gonna be practicing this one now!
