Alright guys, here it is. I've been working really hard this past year and hopefully it paid off, that's for you to decide. I spent the last week cutting this together and I think I got it to a presentable stage.
This reel encompasses the fall winter and spring of 2011/2012. I shot over 23 narrative and documentary films (some of which can be seen on my vimeo), as well as a little skiing.
I know some of you are going to complain about length. From my understanding someone who would be willing to hire me would be willing to watch anything under 5 minutes and probably make their decision within the first 15 seconds of the reel. I'm not too concerned about the length issue.
I would love to hear what you guys think of this. It's tough to judge your own work and outside opinions would help.
Things I'd like to know are:
1.) Are there any shots that are just so bad they shouldn't be in there at all?
2.) Any awkward cuts?
3.) Anything you would add to improve it?
4.) Every other thought you have on it... Haha
Okay, no more writing, here it is. Enjoy:

Thanks ahead of time for those that took the time to watch!
