[WATCH] Casting Directors Say What Your Demo Reel Should Look Like

Date:

Here are three ways actors can improve their demo reel and land a movie role.

Acting is tough. Actors constantly have to deal with rejection and criticism. But, one of the best ways to stand out in the entertainment industry is by having the perfect demo reel.

Demo reel is a short piece of video or film footage showcasing an actor’s previous work. Usually four to six minutes in length, a showreel typically adds to an actor’s résumé and is used to promote the artist’s skill, talent, and experience to acting agents and casting directors.

Recently, casting company, Arvold Casting, recently revealed three tips to make your demo reel stand out from your competition. “Casting director/producer Erica Arvold, CSA, tells actor coach Richard Warner the three things she wants to see in an actor’s demo reel, including the length and kinds of scenes that a casting director wants to see.”

If you have anything you’d like answered, please send Arvold Casting an email at [email protected].
