Mark Brown’s main Showreel was our first Showreel of the week, It was an exemplary work that caught our eyes because of its tight editing, varied body of work and use of contact information and references.
Mark’s reel shows off a great number of events that Mark has captured, from lawn mowing to boxing. This shows us that he is a seasoned video producer who can handle many different situations and make them look good, with stunning composition. There is technical variance in the Showreel as well. We see some time-laps footage, some special effects, some quick cutting and some longer.
While its good to show variance, playing to your strengths in your Showreel is essential. Mark’s composition and editing seem to be His. The Showreel is one captivating minute long. Each shot is carefully chosen and its clearly his best work on show. If your Showreel is struggling in the length department, don’t include sub par work. Wait until you film a few more masterful shots, then include them later on.
It’s clear mark has the potential client in mind with the inclusion of contact details, great stuff! Also his use of quotes was effective, though some more so than others, for example.
“I would definitely recommend him”
Is not as effective as
“When I give speeches in London, I call Mark Brown He’s well organized, easy to work with and delivers an awesome product.”
The keywords highlighted in bold font above really make that quote a worthy addition.
All in all a solid, tightly edited reel with varied shots, contact information and shining references. We all wish mark the best for his future filmatic endeavors!
