s13zeTheDay · 02-10-2011, 02:09 PM

Please note: if there are not at least 4 entrants, the deadline will be extended for exactly one week

TheMisdirectingHand · 02-11-2011, 12:45 AM

If there are only two entries after the week... then I guess it's like that ahaha

s13zeTheDay · 02-11-2011, 05:00 AM

Currently there are no entries

I just want to see some magic!

clementhiang · 02-11-2011, 05:19 AM

I would be posting mine soon. =)

la0o9 · 02-11-2011, 06:24 AM

i will post mine as soon as i get everything down, it will prolly go up this Sunday

Fruglemonkey · 02-11-2011, 07:15 AM

Posting mine soon, as well. Gonna have crappy cam quality, though =/

clementhiang · 02-11-2011, 08:50 AM

Here is my entry.

This is my first attempt at recording my spellbound coin routine inspired off Ponta the Smith's and tillxxblog's (http://www.youtube.com/user/tillxxblog) version.

Hope you like it!

-Clement

la0o9 · 02-11-2011, 01:47 PM

should i post it as a video respond or like Clement's? my speaker is dead so i don't have any sounds atm...

s13zeTheDay · 02-11-2011, 02:07 PM

i'd appreciate videos in this thread, though a video response will be accepted as well

Fruglemonkey · 02-14-2011, 02:24 PM

Working with cameras is hard. Especially a crappy webcam -.-

AFAIK, most of the moves here are original, or at least modified.

EDIT: Also, critique would be GREAT!

TheMisdirectingHand · 02-14-2011, 08:31 PM

Great work! Though the moves were performed very well, they are still recognizable by a regular magician. Well done, there is not much criticism I can give.

Fruglemonkey · 02-14-2011, 08:57 PM

All the productions are MP's, to be honest. And I was kinda hoping that everything before the final vanish would be obvious to a magician, but the final, complete vanish would catch them off guard xD

la0o9 · 02-15-2011, 06:31 AM

the final vanish DID caught me off guard, i couldn't see when you vanished it... always thought that it was in the left hand... i think you need to make it a bit more obvious for spectators to get better reactions( may be weirder hand position...)

s13zeTheDay · 02-15-2011, 02:15 PM

Well the contest is officially extended exactly one week. I need at least one more submission to start the judging.

TheMisdirectingHand · 02-18-2011, 03:22 AM

Well.. I guess it's up to me to post a video of the French Drop and give the two decks away.

la0o9 · 02-18-2011, 05:59 AM

don't you dare, i still have my "1.2.3 coins" routine to upload( but if you really want to post a video of the french drop... feel free)

could have been better... but without good coins, this is the best i can manage...

s13zeTheDay · 02-22-2011, 05:55 PM

Well the contest is officially closed. Thanks to all who entered. Due to the fact that I am away with limited internet access this week, the winner will be determined next weekend, though before next monday at the latest. Also to clarify, because there were less than 10 entrants only the karneval deck will be given away. Stay tuned though, it is likely I will be giving away more decks in the future.

----------------------------------------

Congratulations to the winner................. clementhiang!!! I really enjoyed watching all the videos though, and you all did a great job. Feel free to ask/PM me any questions, comments, or concerns you may have. I look forward to (hopefully) hosting many more contests in the future. Last but not least, clementhiang, please PM me about your prize.

clementhiang · 02-27-2011, 06:04 AM

Thanks for hosting the contest.

I hope to enter in more contests in the future. =)

la0o9 · 02-27-2011, 07:21 AM

Congratz to the winner, and i feel a bit sorry... cause we couldn't provide the host with enough magic( 3 videos with 1 of which-mine- have bad props and performance surely isn't satisfactory).
