Thoughts on my One Coin Routine?

[wildwildcat]

Hey all,

I've gotten very into coins recently, and have been playing around with this One Coin Routine variant.  It goes off well with laymen, and I like the overall flow.  What are your guys's thoughts on the routine?  Ways I could improve?

Trick seems fine to me.

The performance can be better.

For one, SLOW DOWN just a little.  Let your words flow smoothly from your mouth.  At the speed you were talking, you sounded almost like a mouse on a caffeine bender.  It makes you appear nervous despite the fluidity of your hand motions.  Too many breaks in the speech as well - think of a gentle, continuous flow.

It's a spot for Arby's, a fast-food chain in the US specializing in deli sandwiches, promoting their 100% Angus beef.  Now, while the voice over is a bit intense, it's also smooth, with gentle, brief pauses and a voice that's almost calming despite its intensity.  You shouldn't mimic this voice to the last detail, especially the intensity part (and you don't have that deep a voice, either!), but use it as a model from which to craft your own performance voice.  Enunciate well and in an unhurried but not intentionally slow manner.

Thanks, I'll definitely check out the link.
No doubt I can do better on my speaking.
Cheers,
