I decided to upload a current cut of my Director's Reel featuring footage from many of my works in the last 2 years (including "Ghostbusters: Generation" for those of you that are interested!)

I just wanted to get some input and such so watch, enjoy, and comment!

I like how you directed the TDK sign to change color.

Honest opinion.

It doesn't seem like a directors reel.  It does seem like a music video montage fit for youtube.  Far to long.  I saw the sames scenes about 6 or 7 times.  If I'm looking at director's reels I want to hear some dialogue, see some more acting.  Less zooms and shots of the sun.

Annoying music doesn't help either.

On the plus side.  Some of the shots are decent looking.  The music video stuff is pretty cool, use more of that... with the music that goes with it.

Hank onces stated that is more of a cinematography reel than anything else which seems to be case in the opinions I've received.  I agree that it's too long and some shots weren't nessecary and overplayed.  I started cutting it down to something more digestable (and re-labelling it a more appropiate title).
