TIPS

1
MAKE IT ACHIEVABLE
Start planning your reel and be realistic in what you can achieve .
2 3
START STRONG
A recruiter or studio is going to make a decision from the first 30 seconds , don ’ t give them an excuse to cut your reel short – put your best work upfront .
TITLE CARDS
First things first , make sure the studios know who you are and how to contact you when your reel impresses them .
4
GET ORIGINAL
The word is spaceships are over , why not film your own footage or design a unique asset . Stand out from the crowd with something that isn ’ t overused in reels .
5
QUALITY OVER QUANTITY
Don ’ t try and include every piece of work you ’ ve ever produced …
DON ’ T DILUTE IT
Focus on your strengths and make sure these stand out in your reel !
