• Choose a short and high energy piece of music to edit your demo reel to, make sure you have this ready before you begin editing
• Launch Adobe Premiere and begin adding all of your rendered animation assets and video projects from the semester (work from other classes or prior semesters/independent work is allowed)
• Create an intro slide plus an ending title slide with your name and email address
• Edit your slides, images, animations and videos to your music, make sure to edit on the beat of your music track to keep it compelling
• Demo reel music and action should crescendo towards the end
• Keep the demo reel down to 1 minute or 1:30 approximately
• Include tails and 2-pop
• Turn in via NAS or SNET in full HD H.264 with 10Mbps Data Rate

Have fun!
