For our final assignment you must edit a 45 second to 1 minute reel of your work as a videographer - this means all the footage you have filmed in any classes or projects. If you are low on content you may create a Director/DP reel but you must specify what you filmed and what you directed, but you must indicate your reel using titles in your reel.
FOR YOUR VIDEOGRAPHER'S REEL: Keep in mind lots of folks have many different reels for different kinds of jobs they pitch for but for this assignment, choose your favorite shots (for their look/aesthetics) and put them together in a way that represents your style, ability to operate and move the camera, your lighting and technical skills.
In class we will talk about CINEMATOGRAPHER/VIDEOGRAPHER'S REEL as well as DIRECTOR and EDITOR REELS - there are differences!
