@magicman1212 I didn't use clipshift.

Also I don't normal use tilt I use a bluff pass but it is not the greatest on camera so I decided not to do it. I'll keep in the he hold the joker thing next time to

Your patter felt forced to me,and their is something about the voice that sounded off to me, it's like you were trying to talk differently to sound older maybe, or just forced your patter and didn't believe in what you were saying.

You also put the newly changed card back on the deck way to quickly, it would make someone think your ditching something. I mean you just changed a card into another one, let it sink in before you end completely clean, and give out the card for examination.

Those are the only negatives I could see, the shape shifter was done well, coming from someone that taught it to themselves without any help just by seeing the video.

the patter was kind of difficult to listen to, and flashed on the tilt.

I have a small cold so my nose is runny I wasn't trying to change my voice

Also I'll try to redo it was the suggestions you guys gave me a little later today and maybe live tommorow I remember to bring my camera

I'm not sure if we're talking about the same thing here, as the video is removed, but the Shapeshifter color change is NOT an "effect". Please don't film yourself presenting a mere color change as an effect to any amount of spectators.

I dont do it alone in real life, I use it in my ACR. also the new is up there now

Technically it was executed very well, however, I would suggest adding either a "hop" to the card as the change is executed - you could also shake it immediately after executing the change - I feel that doing that covers what is being done fairly well; this change, with the changing corners and all, isn't that hard to figure out.

I usually enjoy your videos, but I thought this one was not smooth at all. Sorry, dude, it just wasn't very good.

I watched the new video, better, your tilt could use some work. and nice card choice.
