Please understand this course is going to create a Screen Test reel, and NOT a Showreel. A Screen Test reel is a short demo of your work for an agency and although just a professional as a Showreel is used for a different purpose. A Showreel is technically a cut of recently produced work where as a Screen Test is a demo shoot of any chosen useful material, in a single angle format, shot generally with a blue background. Its an excellent format for a quick representation of what and how you might be able to act in a real scenario.
