A reel is a 2 min (or less) compilation of some of an actors work. The purpose is to be able to submit it to a Casting Director or agent. Actually to anyone in the in industry who wants it.
It can be done electronically, ie; the recipient can just click on it off of an actors site.
Pretty easy huh?
What isn't easy is my posting it here. No luck at all. I can get it on You Tube and then can post, but in the interest of speed, I will email it to Sean and he will post it right here..I hope.
(I did get it on YouTube, but it takes a bit of time until it is available tor cutting & pasting.)
looks like I will have to blow one out. YouTube thinks it's a duplicate. True, but only a few seconds, Now it says "The video you requested is not available. :'( maybe it will be soon, no idea.
Sean gave me the answer, YouTube need some time.
BINGO!http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x8jE6JQSJIo
