• Don’t even think about a down-to-earth homemade (read ‘amateur’) showreel.

• Keep the showreel to about two to three minutes and no longer!

• Check out other showreels on the Internet to see the standard that is out there.

• Make sure you demonstrate your versatility.

• Only include your very best work and edit tightly between different examples.

• If you decide to get your showreel produced by a company that specialises in this, make sure you have a look at their work before going with them.

• Avoid cheesy gimmicks – just strut your stuff in a professional presentation.

• Include your logo (if you have one) at the beginning of the showreel and your name and contact details at the end or on the menu page.

• If you want to make duplicates on DVDs, use good quality stock and make sure that the label and sleeve are well designed.

• Update your showreel regularly so that you always show the best of the best.
