[DONE]Manipulation Contest - $1,000 Grand Prize - Page 2

Lyle Borders · 03-04-2009, 10:17 AM

Dupes? I don't mind so much. Just make sure we can't tell.

Black and white is fine. If I do something off my webcam, it has to be in b&w too because of the glare.

Alright then. I guess I'll post mine. I'm fully aware that I screwed up in a couple places (like on my swivel cut! Ugh!), but I'd say it's not bad considering that it was filmed at 2:30 in the morning. So here we go, I guess.

Magical Manipulation contest

Awesome video Brandon..

I loved the mixture of tricks and use of the coffee cup.. Good Luck on winning

EDIT::: By The Way.. forgot to say awesome music Brandon

Brandon Pomeroy · 03-04-2009, 08:13 PM

XD I've been waiting for a chance to use that music for a while. I find it hilarious, especially if you listen to it while watching a very dramatic scene from a movie.

Doesnt anyone out there want the $$$$$$$$$$$ or that nice smoke deck?!? $:\$

Lyle Borders · 03-04-2009, 08:35 PM

I do.

Oh, wait. I already have the deck... and I don't qualify for either prize...

Cardini · 03-04-2009, 08:37 PM

WeezyF. · 03-04-2009, 09:06 PM

So all entries must be in by 7 pm Eastern on Saturday? and will the winner be announced on the same day?

EDIT:: sorry didn't read that part

Alex Hess · 03-04-2009, 09:13 PM

Read the first thread :p

canadamagic · 03-04-2009, 10:25 PM

So would adding something like tape to a card be considered a gimmick?

Lyle Borders · 03-04-2009, 11:07 PM

Yes, tape would be considered a gimmick. We want to see card manipulation, not just an average joe shmoe trick. We want to see your skill at card handling.

Will Thong · 03-05-2009, 01:30 PM

Alas, I must admit that I literally have no time :'( But I will watch this contest with growing interest.

Cardini · 03-05-2009, 10:36 PM

Maybe a $1000 isnt enough to get 15 people to join-lol

A cool contest would be a "real world" video.It would help by makeing people go out into the world to fulfill a goal. Going out into your community shooting a video for a "contest" is good advertisemnet for the business you go to do the magic, and may even land them a gig

WeezyF. · 03-05-2009, 11:01 PM

My filming is done

now it is just a matter of adding some music
