One of the most important things to show yourself off and get work is a show reel.
I made myself a showreel in easter of 2022 so I could apply for internships. I was unfortantly unsuccessful but my showreel was also very basic, as it was before i had made any films and only had my animation excerises on it.
obviously my work has improved alot since then. Ill try to put together a quick attempt at a 2023 showreel so i can apply to summer internships before they close applications.
I would like to have someone look at it properly after deadlines and make sure I’m show casing the best of my work.
I would love to but more 3D and mixed media work in this reel but I’m afraid my experiemental stuff isn’t very strong and I need to work on it some more.
I think thats something I’m going to try and focus more on after the course and in my spare time.
I really love maing films and I know that i will need to apply for commercail jobs but I dont think I’ll ever stop pursuing passion projects in my spare time, and hopeful passion projects will just make more employasble as I learn new things.
