        Near Enough – YouTube

        My first attempt at a YouTube video and my third attempt at posting the link.

        Feel free to add any comments / feedback (or just have a laugh).

        Cheers

          Looks good. Feel comfortable with going slower overall – I appreciate you’re performing for a camera but even when rehearsing it’s important to go at the right pace so you don’t develop a muscle memory for going fast in performance. By slowing down  you’ll make everything look and feel more fair, and less tense.

          With the shuffle, you’re using a deep grip in your left hand which I think is hindering you getting started. Perhaps try doing the shuffle out at finger tips of both hands?

          Also, make sure the selection is clearly seen, even when demoing the effect to the camera.

            Many thanks Jack and I appreciate and take on board your feedback.

            I was struggling during the ‘shuffle’ to try and NOT do an ‘Elmsley’ – and I think your fingertip suggestion will help with this part of the trick.

            Cheers

                      So while i was away getting married i wasn’t totally slacking – playing catch up now.. but here’s a little performance of near enough to some shop owners… it was quiet… i just bought something and they looked like they had time so I thought it was a good chance to practice :-)
