I am a beginner flourisher myself, so i cant give you any advice or criticism, but i really loved that card spring at the beginning of the video

I think that most important thing is that you are aware of your skills and skill level.

Cheers

It wasn't anything to be embarrassed about IMO. You are obviously still a novice at cardistry. But my advice to you is to start with the basics and learn them smooth and well. Slowly at first and then gain confidence for speed. Smoothness and fluidity must come before speed. I don't like how you move around a whole lot. But that is just my personal opinion. I like the buck twins and how only their hands move. But that's just me.

Constructive criticism:
The pro's: You showed your face, it's good to do that in a video so people can identify who you are. And when they hear your name, their brain will be like 'Oh ya, THAT guy, the one with the beginer flourishing video.

The cons: Moves were slow, no originality, I've seen a million video's like this, even though it was short it was very boring, didn't play around at all with editing, moves seriously need work, get some original moves and post another video in a while. Two more major cons, don't make the credits so long, they should go by quickly, I don't want to sit through more than 1 second per credit; and when you show your face, try to look happy while performing, like Shoeman. It looks like the cameraman has a rifle and is pointing it at your and forcing you to perform in discontent. Oh ya try to zoom in much more. But the MAIN reason I disliked it so much was because the moves were nothing special and I've seen them a million times before in video's just like this.

dude, stop being an @$$. If you don't have anything nice to say then don't say anything at all.

The cons are something he can look at and use them to make his next video better, it may seem mean, but he needs to hear the truth. The criticism was not even directed at you. Cry me a river, 12 year old. Then build a bridge, then jump off it.

hahaha now THAT was something not nice to say. but in all fairness shinini you did ask for it. theory11-year-olds are so sensitive, I think it's an emo thing.

as for the video, sounds like Sean covered everything pretty well.
