How to choose the best material for your reel?

Choosing the right material for your reel is crucial to reflect your skills and professional aspirations. It is not so much a matter of ability, but a personal decision about what you want to show and where you want to direct your career. Each reel you show not only speaks to your current skills, but also to your future career aspirations.

Why have different reels depending on your professional focus?

Nicolai Coral, for example, has two different reels: one focused on his work as a director and the other as a cinematographer or director of photography. This differentiation allows him to apply to specific projects with a clear and well-defined focus in each area.

Creating different reels can help you to:

  • Highlight specializations: showcase your skills in specific areas.
  • Apply to precise projects: Direct your efforts toward opportunities that align with your interests.
  • Reflect versatility: Show your ability to perform in different areas of the audiovisual field.

How to reflect your technical and aesthetic skills in the reel?

Each image you select in your reel should have a clear purpose and be aligned with what you want to communicate as a professional. Nicolai Coral mentions that his aesthetic is characterized by vibrant colors and his ability to narrate through color and optics. Here are some tips on how to achieve this:

  • Color composition: learn how to combine hues in such a way that they play a visual and narrative role in your scenes.
  • Optical storytelling: Master space, aesthetics and emotionality to tell a visually effective story.
  • Light texturing: Use textures in the highlights to create unique and engaging atmospheres.
  • Contrast: Manage contrast so that each shot flows harmoniously with the next, avoiding visual disruptions.

What to do when you already know your strengths?

Knowing your strengths allows you to look for opportunities that highlight your skills. In addition, you can clearly define what you want to continue doing in your career. Nicolai Coral, for example, chooses not to include certain images from past projects in his reels, although he keeps them on his website. These decisions reflect your desire for what you don't want to continue doing professionally and emphasize what you do want to continue exploring.

In deciding what material to select for your reel, consider:

  • Define your professional intentions: what do you want to continue to develop in your career?
  • Select representative material: Choose images that reflect your technical and aesthetic skills.
  • Stay true to your aspirations: Communicate your professional desires through your chosen material.

Your reel is a powerful tool to convey your passion and career goals. Take the time to reflect on what you want to achieve, and select the material that best reflects that. Go ahead, create something that speaks to your potential and your enthusiasm for what you do!

De suma importancia el cierre de la clase sin demeritar lo demás.
Pasión Lo que sé hacer (Dominio técnico) + Lo que quiero hacer (anhelo)

¡Qué buen reel! Que chévere llegar a ese nivel.

Tu reel es la proyección
1.- de lo que sabes hacer
2.- de lo que quieres hacer

Por lo tanto el mejor material es el que mejor muestra las habilidades que ya dominas y te gustaría seguir haciendo

¿Cómo escoger el mejor material?

  • Material

Tu reel es la proyección de lo que sabes hacer + lo que quieres hacer.
Por lo tanto el mejor material es el que mejor muestra las habilidades que ya dominas y te gustaría seguir haciendo.

Un buen material refleja:

Lo que sabes hace, lo que dominas (dominio técnico) con lo que te encanta hacer, lo que quieres hacer a futuro (anhelo - autoría) y esto se resume en pasión, un reel refleja tu pasión.

Me gusto mucho esta clase ya que ese justamente es el problema de mi reel actual, buscaba poner muchos trabajos sin pensar que es mejor filtrarlos y mostrar los mejores en dominio más aquello a lo que me quiero dedicar.
