Hi!
So I always liked routines with the credit cards. I think they can be very powerful because they touch something very personal which people care about a lot. Finally I tried to create something and record it, would you be able to give me some feedback on this? (there is short hypnotism routine preceding) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ExbxkwfBcM |

Far too much preamble before you got to the effect. Just dive straight in and do it, I would say. I would not normally sit through two minutes of a performer talking about another performer, just to wait for the effect.

I've been a fan of your videos for a while, Jakub. This was a nice effect. I love the idea of muscle reading with the invisible keypad - very well done. The predicted final number was also a nice touch,
Tony - I get what you're saying about the preamble, but this is something that has always been a part of Jakub's videos. He often gives shout outs to other performers, so this didn't bother me much, as I like that he brings attention to performers he is fond of. In this case, It probably would have been better to show your effect first, then highlight the other guy. As tiny said, he was there to watch YOU, not hear about someone else, |

Hi jakub,
I enjoyed your demonstration (as always). However, the spectator was clearly stunned, maybe you could encourage the spectator to share her sense of astonishment with her friends a bit more, not sure how exactly but I felt you could maximise on her shock and get everyone a bit more excited (it did look cold though in fairness), Regards, sea
I love post its

Thank you so much! I do like to help other people out if I can and if I find interesting what they do. I'd love to do something with the Café members in the future
Sea, thank for the thoughts! I did actually speak to her a bit more later and managed to get some more from her, but it hasn't been caught on camera. |

Muscle reading an imaginary keypad to attain a pin number is a wonderful idea.
Thank you for your message on you tube a couple weeks ago about my videos. I have to ask, was this effect inspired at all by my video at all ? or just a coincidence. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S289I6uR0-0 - at 2 minutes in...from back in 2007 best, Andrew Gerard
Well then...

Looch, Of course many have used muscle reading I am sure, I am genuinely curious and have no mal intent at all, I can see how that could be read into my post though, so to be clear.... I am just curious as Jakbur just sent me a lovely hello message on you tube a short while ago, after seeing my clips, and we became friends.
Hope that makes things clear... I am a fan of Jakbur, anyone that puts him/her self out there.... too many experts hiding behind keyboards in this information age of " download this, torrent that" Mentalism is a performance craft. It would be lovely to know something I did lit a spark in another performers mind.
Well then...

Oh dear , I see I have forgotten how easily things can get out of control here : )
Just to be absolutely clear: I have no claim to pin reveals or muscle reading.... and I think everyone here is wonderful. hope that works. kindest thoughts, AG
Well then...

I did not watch the video for the simple reason I would not do any effects using credit cards, PINs or Social Security numbers. There was a time when using these things were OK, but today is not that day.

Andrew, I've not seen your video before but I've watched it just now and I see we had quite similar idea. I think your performance was excellent, I love the funny intro you made in that video, it made me laugh
Thank you for the kind words! |
