I'm looking to spread my scope beyond the film world and would be great to get some feedback. I've only used designed atmos and no music.. was wondering if I could of done more with the backgrounds? </p> <p><a href="http://vimeo.com/35246979" rel="nofollow">http://vimeo.com/35246979</a></p> <p>thanks,</p> <p>Phil</p> http://socialsounddesign.com/questions/11285/showreel-feedback Showreel feedback Adam 2011-11-08T19:39:01Z 2012-02-02T05:22:02Z <p>Hello i've just uploaded my first attempt at a sound design showreel and thought it would be a good idea to get some feedback off like-minded people. It can be viewed here </p> <p><a href="http://vimeo.com/31798677" rel="nofollow">http://vimeo.com/31798677</a></p> <p>Thanks Adam </p> http://socialsounddesign.com/questions/12041/general-reel-feedback General Reel Feedback Luca Fusi 2012-01-02T17:29:32Z 2012-01-31T18:22:02Z <p>Hi Everyone,</p> <p>I've cut together my first linear audio reel and was hoping a few of you might tear it apart before I plaster it all over the place, burn a big stack of DVDs and pound some pavement in 2012.</p> <p>www.vimeo.com/lucafusi/reel</p> <p>The intended purpose of the reel is to be a general overview of liner audio work I've done that I could send along as an introduction, or burn to DVD alongside an couple of other clips. Mostly I'd be looking for notes like, this pacing was too quick, I couldn't read X, you don't need to show clip Y, the whole thing was too long, stuff like that.</p> <p>Specific notes on the quality of the work are helpful, but for the most part these productions are what they are and what I have to work with right now. That said, I could always do a bit of remixing if anything really sticks out.</p> <p>Thanks so much for watching, I truly appreciate the help.</p> <p>Luca</p> http://socialsounddesign.com/questions/11797/showreel-length showreel length kampana 2011-12-09T16:12:32Z 2011-12-09T20:58:56Z <p>what's the recommended length a sound design showreel should be? is 8 or 10min a good length or too long?</p> http://socialsounddesign.com/questions/10548/scene-from-starlight-showreel-2-unreal-reallity Scene from Starlight (Showreel 2: Unreal Reallity) Christian van Caine 2011-09-27T07:19:13Z 2011-10-24T18:47:25Z <p>Yebo good people! I have finished one of my best sound design-works to date, and has gotten a short sequence from it from the director we both use as a promo/showreel. It's a short (full movie is 15min long) about a frustrated god stuck in some kind'a cabin somewhere in a kind of limbo. The DVD and Theatrical-version is in full surround 5.1 with full usage of the three-dimensional space, but so far neither Vimeo nor YouTube supports that :-(</p> <p>It's the second in a series of segments with the first one being a hyper-designed trailer based in bullet-time for a game. The following I'm about to finish is about sound design, foley, and full ADR from a slasher-flick, a violent gladiator-sequence from a parkour-movie, and three different scenes showing my competence as location-sound in a thriller/Noir due for next year, a sci-fi movie, and a drama.</p> <p>I will not flood the forum with the others, but the reason I posted this is, of course, that I want your views of this as I'm about to make quite an extensive go with it :-)</p> <p>Enjoy!</p> <p>[vimeo]29441599[/vimeo]</p> http://socialsounddesign.com/questions/9426/eric-fernandez-baca-audio-show-reel Eric Fernandez-Baca Audio show-reel Eric Baca 2011-08-02T21:16:20Z 2011-08-17T14:59:50Z <p>Hi guys, this is my first post although I joined this society last year, I was very busy finishing my studies. This is my first show-reel. I would appreciate any suggestions.

Gillian Glencross 2011-06-01T19:13:32Z 2011-06-02T03:15:27Z <p>Whats the best way to display a showreel of sound related to the moving image - whats the best and how much information should you display for each separate piece of work and what is the optimum length?? I made this one recently but i dont think it has a great impact.... <a href="http://vimeo.com/24519080" rel="nofollow">http://vimeo.com/24519080</a> Would you have any suggestions to make it more elaborate while still including the skill bases demonstrated?</p> <p>Any help on this would be great, </p> <p>Thanks, Gillian </p> http://socialsounddesign.com/questions/4823/what-to-put-in-show-reel What to put in show reel dhawken 2010-11-26T15:50:13Z 2011-05-21T14:48:17Z <p>Hi</p> <p>I'm looking at putting a show reel together for myself to put on my website and was just after some advice as to what to put in/leave out, use video/don't use video.</p> <p>Any advice would be great </p> <p>Thanks</p> http://socialsounddesign.com/questions/224/whats-the-best-way-of-presenting-a-sound-design-showreel Whats the best way of presenting a sound design showreel ? cristianvog 2010-03-09T11:05:17Z 2010-11-28T23:00:55Z <p>Most clients attention is short when asked to listen to sound alone. So I'm presuming its better to associate sound work with image. Without having to shoot a film just to showcase your sound and composition work, what is an effective way for showcasing the aesthetics and style of your work?</p> http://socialsounddesign.com/questions/3372/showreel-focusing-on-dialogue-editing-and-location-recording Showreel focusing on dialogue editing and location recording Dave Clissold 2010-09-03T10:32:50Z 2010-09-04T09:49:21Z <p>I am in the process of editing my online showreel. I have 3 short films (or not so short 1 is 36 minutes and another 19 minutes), a trailer and a DVD intro / pre-menu clip. Now my main focus for my career or should I say where I would like to direct my career is dialogue editing and location recording.</p> <p>It has been suggested to me that my showreel should be no longer than 4 minutes, but am wondering how I could showcase some of the lengthier scenes within that time. Do I also try and create something thats snappy and jumps around or do I put the clips from the films together? My DVD showreel will include all the films after the edited reel automatically plays, so for that I am happy in the knowledge that people can watch the full films afterwards. However due to restrictions with 2 of the films I am unable to upload them in full nor are they available elsewhere, so how do i get around this within the 4 minutes.</p> <p>Any ideas or examples that people think might help would be greatly appreciated.</p> <p>Dave</p> http://socialsounddesign.com/questions/2363/mastering-a-demo-reel Mastering a demo reel Dave Matney 2010-07-29T03:17:35Z 2010-08-01T00:51:54Z <p>So, I'm finally getting around to putting my demo reel together (I know, I know... Shoulda done that a long time ago), and I was wondering something...</p> <p>Is it okay to have someone that's not me do the final master? If so, should I mention that? Or should I just do the best I can, since it's MY reel to start with?</p> http://socialsounddesign.com/questions/714/any-good-sites-for-collaborating-on-small-projects-ie-animations-short-films-et Any good sites for collaborating on small projects? ie animations, short films etc? Andy Lewis 2010-04-16T13:32:25Z 2010-04-30T12:55:06Z <p>Hi all!</p> <p>I'm looking to collaborate on some projects so that I can update my showreel with a few more recent works. Does anyone know of any sites where it might be useful to post some sound design/editing requests? I enjoy animation and computer visual effects stuff, as well as film. Would be interesting to hear anyone's suggestions as to where the best places are to offer services. Of course it'd be great to get paid for them, but at the moment I'd be happy to do some free collaborating for the right projects.</p> <p>I live in the Southwest of England(Bournemouth) at present!</p> <p>Cheers, A.L.</p>
