The all-important reel—yours needs to be able to show potential clients how awesome you are at doing what you do. All of those videos you shot for local bands for $50 and a 6-pack have led up to this moment, when you’re able to cull through all those terabytes of footage, handpick the cream of the crop, and put them in a reel you can be proud of. Make sure that every single shot you include really communicates your style, ability, and flexibility as an artist.
