Are you an actor who needs a film reel for auditions, but doesn’t have a lot of credits under their belt? Or who may have a few credits, but hasn’t gotten the shot to showcase your skills the type of role that you’d like to play, despite hoofing auditions for bit parts in small productions? Then, as they say:
Fake it, til you make it.
With my team of partners, we produce original one-to-two-minute scenes FROM SCRATCH in all genres and formats (TV, film, commercials) tailored to your needs, in the high-budget styles of large production companies for a fraction of the cost, where you and your skills are the focus of every scene, and then edit them down into the slickest, most efficient reels out there to showcase you.
We produce full reels in High Definition, showcasing exactly the talents that you want casting agents and directors to see; with dramatic, funny, or memorable moments uniquely written for your talents and desires as an actor. Instead of spending days and weeks on sets of student films and low-budget indie films, only to see your best moments hit the cutting room floor, do it in a fraction of the time for a 100th of the budget and get just what you want.
