This is my showreel for 2005, titled "Building Life". It's my first complete Reel and took about 6 months. All Character models, Texturing, Lighting, Rigging, Effects, Animation, Editing, Compositing, Concept, Drawings and more were done by me.

This is the image I used on the CD cover.

I think it is a little bit too long, your running at about 3min 12 secs, try to get it down more. If your going strictly for animation, the turn-arounds at the end arent nessisary. That would cut alot of time there. With the animation, try showing more expressions and poses, i didnt feel like there was enough animation. Your characters were nice, I liked the short guy with the aviation goggles, and the textures were nice as well, especially the one on those plants, I could tell you spent some time on them. The idea of a video game screen was creative. Just needs tweaking, and itll look great!

I'll see about cutting in a few close ups and tweaking the animation a bit. I originaly wanted a close up of the girl screaming as she's pulled into the ground, but it was getting to long.
I'm not actually trying for animation. I'm hoping to model and texture characters, enviornment, Weapons, and props. This is my first animation. Their was alot more in the original storyboard but I had to cut it down when I found out a Reel should only be 2 or 3 minutes.
I'm thinking of shortening the rotations a bit as well. Not yet though, I'm skint and am spending all of my time in search of work.
