Currently I’m working on something for a show and an article for a magazine for magicians.  This is something that I’ll probably only do a couple of times.  One of the tools that I’m using to get it show ready is video.  I record the trick, takes notes while I watch the video and rehearse some more.  Then I repeat the whole thing.
One of the things that I’ve noticed in watching my video is that when I do a certain move that takes a little bit of brain power, I stop smiling and look like I’m doing something.  This is just my face.  If I cropped the video and you just saw my face and I asked you when I did the move, you’d be able to!
This is the value of video, you can see things that you can’t see in a mirror.  When the move happens I need to visually see something, so I can’t see my face in the mirror.  I wouldn’t have known my face was giving me away!  
TLDR: Video is a helpful tool for rehearsal!
