Not bad, but I have a few comments:

1. Learn and use more openers. The second fellow had a semi-opener there, but the fellow with the Bees just took the cards out of the box normally. Every moment you are holding the deck is an opportunity to do something incredible with it, even if they're still in the box.

2. Check out the thread "How to Improve Your Videos Overnight" to get some tips on making even more compelling and fleshed-out videos. While I can enjoy videos that are just the typical "camera close-up on my torso with shot after shot of cuts", I would much prefer there were more cinematographic and entertaining elements included, to make it more entertaining throughout.

3. While it ultimately comes down to style, I beg you to incorporate more variety in the moves. I know that two handed cut after two handed cut after two handed cut has become something of a "norm" nowadays (a big shock for me, having been gone for 4 years), but variety in your moves makes any video you make far, far more compelling. Fans, one-handed cuts, springs, dribbles, armspreads, shots, throws, shuffles, etc.

4. Play with the idea of more uncut routines (I know, my inner Handlordz is talking, I can't help it). I'm not saying a whole video should be uncut, but consider running 2-3 moves together in one uncut shot. Having breaks between every move kind of messes with the pace of a video.

Otherwise it was enjoyable, and you guys obviously have some skill. Keep at it. :)

Best,
Vince
