Jumping Gemini, invisible palm and others.

Sorry for the small size and poor lighting. Was record on my father's mobile and didn't realise he had a fairly small resolution on and because light was enabled, didn't think would need that many house hold lights on. But the videos are still viewable.

Also, sorry about the format. They are in mobile phone format. QuickTime should be able to view them. Well... If you watch these on your mobile, the lighting won't be a problem anymore. At least when I was viewing on my fathers mobile there was no problem. Guess it's just the angle that I was looking at it from. But otherwise, on desktop, there was.


Well, here's me doing Jumping Gemini. Although I say first, it's actually second. I just forgot all about my other one which was the actual first, but meh, same thing. :)

And this was the first...

This was some of the basic stuff I learnt at my magic club. Just named it as this.

One of my friends from the magic club's favourite routine. Just named it as this.

Something I learnt real quick.

A reproduction of GoldFish's entry in competition 3 (I think). Just named it as this.

And I could have sworn that I recorded myself doing rcarlsen's entry in competition 3 also... Guess I'll have to record it next time and the other stuff that I learn next time also. I would have done Jazz Ace's but didn't, since I don't have the extra decks and stuff... :?

If the links don't work, give it a bit of time. SiteSled has it's ups and downs I guess.

So I hope you like them, cause I don't. Dam I do an awful job... >_>

Great stuff!
You did the Jumping Gemini much better than me. The only thing I didn't like is showing of the first to jacks as it was to fast for the mobile phone camera.:) And I think you flashed a double while revealing the second card as the 8 of S. Black Tiger cards obviousl make things a bit easier.:)

WhyILearnMagic is also a nice vid.

The Aces and Devils were very good too, but you should practice loading of cards. It looks unnatural. maybe it's the speed, maybe it's the misirection, i don't know.

Your tricks have great stories, so even if the performance isn't perfect it's nice to watch them.

+why do you need "extra decks and stuff" for the jazz aces?

Thanks for the comments. It was late at night and I was a little tired. You don't know how many takes I did trying to come up with the right thing to say and I still can't manage to come up with the right thing to say. :P

Even though I said to drop the 4H, which I sometimes threw down rather than just drop, but I hope you know what I mean, I still need practice of getting into the habit of dropping either way. And yeh, the Jacks were a little too quick. Either that, just the camera. Odd enough, whenever I get up to the part where I put the 4H into middle of packet, always lagged on phone.

Anyways, can't use much misdirection if it's on camera I guess. But when I publicly do these, I misdirect a fair bit whether I need it or not. Just to relieve some of the tension.

I need extra decks or extra cards of the same card because if I don't, the whole Jazz Ace is revealed. Watch rcarlsen's ( http://www.talkmagic.co.uk/ftopic5758.p ... =jazz+aces ) Jazz Ace's and you'll know what I mean.

I've learnt some new sleights also which I need to start practicing them.

Ah, I see. But I like rcarlsen's version because it's very visual. But otherwise, I could try this one. :) Thanks for the link.
