Actors, you have your headshots and your resumes. Now, you need a professional demo reel to show your performances & projects. With the internet and electronic submissions, all actors have to have a demo reel. It's a MUST!

Experienced actors, with reels, need to make sure they are up to date.. can be played on HD/widescreen.

Experienced actors, that need footage put together on a reel, need to have it done professionally.

Actors that have no reels, can have a performance reel with an Actors Slate or a staged reel, so that casting directors can see you and your personality. It's not easy to show personality in a headshot. They want to see you in action.
