My personal notes people may find useful: - don’t be sentimental about all your shots - no more than 2 min. Less with not as good shots - 2-3 shots from each video - communicate your role on a set and let your reel reflect that - demonstrate who you are as a human being - make a reel of the WORK YOU WANT TO BE SHOOTING, *make separate reels* - get opinions from other filmmakers about what to remove - remind people youre still crushing it - email to new potential prod companies or directors you want to work with COLD CALLS! - REEL is a RESUME send it to a new client youre interested quick tips - avoid transitions - color grade, re color grade older stuff - add lots of sound, make it so textural - drone footage isnt important Again, best shots ONLY! no blown out highlights, out of focus etc

I can't stress it enough: you are freaking awesome. You present things in such an easy and natural way. It makes me realize how simple things are. Thanks for that. And yeah... The youtubey transitions 😬. I personally can't watch those because they make me feel like I am on an unmotivated roller coaster ride.

@josiahcherniss1485 4 года назад

I'm so new to the cinematography world that when someone asked for my reel I had no idea what they were asking for. I sent my personal favorite video and looked like an idiot. But it was a good lesson and for the guys like me that didn't think you need one.... you definitely need one!

@DannyGevirtz 4 года назад

Haha we all have to learn! Thanks man!

@jonikopf 3 года назад

Bro it‘s crazy how talented you are: Your skills of explaining and communicating with us behind the screen is just incredible! Super inspiring and very helpful!!

@pierrebuysfilms 2 года назад

Incredible Reel Danny, what it says about is that you keep it real. And this connects with who you are, in the following explanation of making your reel, I pick up that you are a guy who keeps it real and natural. But you also remind people after working hard not to take everything so seriously. I've seen many impressive reels and inspiring work the last 20 years, yours is one of the most inspiring I've ever seen, thank you Danny.

@douglaswicker 3 года назад

To add to Danny's very strong list of recommendations, don't stress about the music as much as you might think you should. Most people watching your reels are watching hundreds or thousands of reels, they know in the first few seconds whether they want to work with you. So keep it short, keep the music non-polarizing (like Danny said,) and make every shot count.

@RunNGunPhoto Год назад

*I love the note about transitions -- I've been saying this for years!!* Flashy transition templates are used to cover up poor editing and lack of storytelling. They show me that someone lacks ability vs. has it. Also, just found your channel and love it!

@Maros_Mari 3 года назад

Hey Danny, thanks for the honesty. I really enjoyed this video, as I am working on my own reel. The best tip I think is the last one - if you dont have enough good shots then its better to focus on improving and learning rather than creating reel which tries to only sell you without proper skillset and experience. That is very crucial and important to understand - there are seldom shortcuts no matter how much we would all love to be out there just doing what we love. There is a journey to take and the better one understands that the more rewarding it will be for him and the clients in the future.
