Hey! Sooooooo... here's another Flash reel...It's a bunch of action scenes I have done at work... lots of fun !

I'm just wondering if my choice of music is ok... it might be a tad heavy. My friends wrote the song, and I like it , so i thought it would fit, since it's all fighting and stuff... So, I'd like to know what you guys think; would it be stupid for me to keep the music like that and send it out, or just scrap the tune, and find something like Beethoven :D

Thanks alot!!

Thats some cool stuff you got there. Thats done in flash?

as for the music.. I thought it was ok for the first bit. then it started to get on my nerves.. but thats just me.. wait for some more feedback.

Loved your reel, hard to believe its flash.

Music is fine. No one cares about it anyway, I think most hiring managers just hit 'mute' .

Thanks alot! The whole thing was done in flash 4. No Illustrator. The show is actually gonna be airing in September, it even got to be selected from Teletoon for a sneak peek back in early August! we were thrilled!

The whole idea behind the music was that I saw it as an action reel, so why not put some action music to it? But yeah... I still don't know if Im gonna keep it yet...

Thanks again for checking it out!

This + your other reel are really, really cool! Very inspiring.

I think the music fits, people who normally hate heavier music tend to only hate singing.

Thanks everyone! I think in the end... I just might keep the music... I'm still uncertain... ahh well. Thanks alot for checkin' her out!

Oh, yeah, I know wht you mean by the singing... alot of times, I'll really enjoy how a song ramps up, ut as soon as I hear the voice, it turns me off... Happens all to often.
