Demo Reel — A Perception!
Time changes fast and so as the expectations of the Industry. There’s a huge bunch of useful articles on demo-reel do’s and dont’s in the Internet . In this article, we will discuss on how to set in your perception about demo-reels.
Creation Is My Identity!
Demo-reel is the pseudo you for Employers! What you create becomes a mark of your capability. You cannot afford to send wrong signals about your skills through a bad showcase.
Choose Your Specialization!
Don’t leave your employer confused! You may be a jack of all trades, but are you a master in at-least one? is the question. Clearly demonstrate your specialized skills, do not demonstrate too many things in one demo-reel.
Quantity Vs Quality!
Its a common belief among students the more I create, the better I am, Its a big myth. You can impress the employer with just one work. If the first 10 seconds of your demo-reel could catch attention & becomes irresistible to pause or to skip, you are done. Doing less with utmost quality is what matters the most for an employer.
Keep It Simple Silly!
Have a neat simple Title Card. Avoid bad, dynamic transitions. Let the music be suitable, soothing to your showcase and not your favorite rock numbers.
