What does your acting showreel production service include?
Our showreel production service begins with a consultation to define your personal acting brand and goals. We guide you through choosing and refining scenes that best showcase your range, before filming with multiple cameras, custom lighting setups, and professional audio capture. In post-production, we edit your footage to highlight your pace, emotion, and on-camera presence, apply colour grading, and mix the sound for clarity. You’ll receive a polished showreel scene or full edited showreel depending on your requirements.
How long does it take to produce my showreel?
From start to finish, most showreels take three to five weeks. The first week is devoted to pre-production planning – finalising your scenes & scouting locations if needed. Shoot day usually takes between half a day and a full day, depending on how many scenes and setups you choose. Post-production editing, sound mixing, and colour grading then occupy two to three weeks. Finally, we take your feedback, make revisions, and then deliver your finished video. If you need your film sooner, rush-turnaround options can be arranged.
How should I prepare for the shoot?
Begin by selecting two to four contrasting monologues or scenes that highlight different facets of your talent. Gather multiple wardrobe choices to reflect varied character types, and warm up your voice and body on the day of the shoot so you’re performance-ready. Sending us any existing footage, headshots, or reference materials beforehand helps us tailor our approach to your style. We’ll run a brief on-set rehearsal to lock in blocking and camera angles before we roll.
What types of scenes and skills should I include?
A compelling showreel balances emotional depth with range. Pair a dramatic scene – where you can explore nuance and intensity – with a comedic bit that showcases your timing and personality. Adding a two-person scene demonstrates your ability to build chemistry with other actors. If you have special skills such as dialects, stage combat, dance, or accents, incorporate moments that let those talents shine. We collaborate with you to curate the perfect selection of clips that reflect your unique strengths.
How much does a showreel cost and what influences pricing?
Pricing depends on the complexity and scope of your project. Key factors include the number of scenes you wish to film, if we need to write bespoke scripts, whether we shoot in-studio or on location, and any additional needs like wardrobe, makeup, or supporting talent. The amount of editing time, revisions, and any custom graphics you require also play a role. After an initial consultation to discuss your objectives, we’ll provide a detailed quote.
