    archived-videos Director Demo Reel

    I appreciate your opinion on my demo reel. When I was working on it, I looked around for director’s reels and I found only a few and a lot of them where similar to mines, and most honestly had no audio from the actual film. I made sure to use all the audio from each respect film I did. I...

    cinematography Nolan States Film beats Out Digital

    At the Producers Guild Of America meeting, Nolan said... digital is "devaluing what we do as filmmakers" and added that "I don’t want to be the R and D department. I don’t have any interest in the research into electronics. What interests me is to use the best technology and that is film." So...

    Thank you for your feedback, I appreciate it and… No, I don't mind your professional opinion at all. I looked you up and I know you are audio oriented person, and I respect you in your field. I appreciate the critique and I would agree that my sound design is weak. The music are professionally...

    I agree with you completely... the list I gave was very generalize, But I completely agree on the post end of the spectrum. Other then being a independent Director my main form of income is being a camera operator and editor /VFX, I again completely agree lol. I edit my own films, and it was...

    I don't agree with anything you’ve said and I still believe your arrogant and honestly meeting you wouldn't change that. I was hoping your next response would be you agreeing to disagree on each other’s opinions, but that wasn't the case. A director’s job is many critical things but to put one...

    Thanks for the post, I appreciate it. If you don't mind, since its become a somewhat sub topic. What do you think of some of the performances that you see in my reel. Are they good, average, or bad? And if you want, post your Demo Reel here, I wouldn't mind checking it out.

    I don't want this to turn into some big debate or argument between you 2 but I also like to state some things on the topic and on what you said. When it matters to directing actors on how you want them to portray that character or just perform in general is very subjective, reality is extremely...

    If anyone is interested, I've only directed short films. And most of my work has either been seen in festivals or online afterwards. But if you would like, after you've seen my Demo Reel, check out the shorts I have released. On-Star Commercial: https://vimeo.com/36928278 Shadows Of The Mind...

    First complete negative response, which is fine. Can't make everyone happy but I know my Director Of Photography will appreciate your complement lol.

    Thanks for the critique and I didn't take anything to offense. This is what I wanted and somewhat expected. I agree entirely that it’s to long. I will most likely cut it down by 30 seconds. I also agree about your MTV reference but to a degree. Demo reels aren’t honestly aimed at that...

    Thanks for checking out the Demo. And yeah the whole point is to show what kinda of work you have done and get people interested in it.

    archived-videos Director Demo Reel

    It’s good for independent directors, that don’t have a great amount of street credit. It more like a resume for a director, it wont get you a job but it may get you a meeting/ interview with someone who saw the demo reel and liked what they saw. Then in my opinion, you have to sell yourself and...

    I just want to see what people think of my Demo Reel. I created it a few months back but never got a really good critique. I’ve gotten 2 directing gigs (a Short and a Feature) because of it, but I still want to here from the community. Director Demo Reel: https://vimeo.com/38614957

    archived-videos Shadows Of The Mind (Really Short Film)

    The score was created by Secession and Martij De Mont. Once I had edited most of the film, I started looking for music for the film. I found these guys on YouTube and found a song that I liked from each of them. They where nice enough to give me permission to use there music in the short but...

    Directors, what's the worst thing that's ever happened on set?

    Worst experience I ever had on set was dealing with an arrogant DP on a short. During pre-production he was already giving me issues, it was the first time I had worked with him. The first problem came up during pre-production; I wanted one scene to change in the middle of the shot from warm...

    Thanks, glad you liked it. Yeah we used a practical light to get a realistic glow on his face. We attached flood light to a boom pole and then digitally removed it in post.
