Hi everyone,
I am about to look for work again in the vfx industry, and I would like to have some critics about my reel. And if you take the time to watch it, be aware that I come from the technical side ( computer sciences engineer, to be precise ), but please, be as honest as possible, I am really curious about what professional artists may think about my work.
So here it is:

I hope you enjoy :)

I'm no professional artist, so I have no real advice to offer you. Sorry. :hmm:

Still, there is ONE thing I'd be happy to share with you...

... That showreel friggin' rocks dude! Jaw dropping stuff. The sort of stuff I'd like to aspire to. :thumbsup:

You say you're getting back INTO the vfx industry? I'd love to know more about your background and how you did this piece.

whew, a huge thx to you!!. I really appreciate your comment. Actually, I did not mean I wanted to go BACK in the industry, because I am still a just out of school ( engineer school, not 3D ) and I had just made two internships in a good CG studio and worked two months in a small comp as a developper. So, I still do not consider myself as a 3D pro, but I am really willing to be one!

And again, thx a lot for your really nice comment! :)

i thought it was great, i'm not a visual fx guy but i liked what i saw. My only comment would be make ur reel flow smoothly.
Better editing and defenite don't have ur contact info for 1 min.
10 sec would be good enough. Cheers.
