Hi,

I just updated my reel. Wonder if you guys, or girls can give me any feedback on it.

Much appreciated.

Here is H.624 compression

If trace back to the page you'll find other samples and Windows Media too.

Much, much appreciated.

ps: Jody Lipes' reel was awesome (in dictionaries awesome=sublime)

I think I'd tighten it up a little. Once you show something, don't go back and show it again. I'd also do away with the credits sequence after your contact information. If it just ended with your contact information and nothing else, I think it would be more effective. As it was, I was concentrating on the action taking place behind the titles, and didn't have time to read your info. That might be bad if you're sending it out to people for work.

The music was a little distracting, especially when it went quiet and then built back up. It was almost like we should concentrate on that one section of the reel moreso than the reel as a whole. Plus, the random guy shooting the girl at the very end was just odd.

Aside from that, there are some good images here. Best of luck!

Pretty nice stuff. The only thing that subtracted from your iece was your steadi cam work that had lights and a boom pole in the frame. The music didn't bother me.
