Hi Victor,
I would love some advice. Here is a demo reel that you haven't seen which shows all my body mechanics work from Animation Mentor and another dialogue shot that I'm none too pleased with:

And here is my Anim Collab work reel:

So, do you have any recommendations for what I should work on that would beef up my reel?
I'm really enjoying doing these smaller exercises, I learn a ton from them but without investing a huge amount of time. But I feel like I don't have any strong dialogue shots on my reel at this point, so maybe I should be focusing on that. What do you think?
Thanks,
Ken
Hi Ken, you've got a lot of great variety between these reels, but I agree you could use a stronger dialog piece. Let's try a short (5 seconds or less) single-character dialog piece. And try to pick something NOT from Karate Kid! If you're looking for non-movie sources, try listening to CNN's Richard Quest. He's got an amazing vocal personality, and a British accent to boot! Podcasts like Radiolab and This American Life are also great sources.
ReplyDeleteRichard Quest -- great suggestion. Thanks Victor. I want to find a recording of him reading Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol.
