Designing a Logo

Having a logo is important when it comes to having your own business. It gives the first impression and views of your business. Giving you your own identity and making the interaction feel more personal between you and the clients. When it comes to making my first logo, I must start by researching into other logos already in the industry. There I will be able to see what is standard within the industry and what I can take inspiration for my own logos.

  A showreel is a short video reel  showing a your best work and projects you may have worked on. Showreels are mostly used by creatives in order to show clients a quick burst of their work. It allows the client to get a feel of the person's style of work.  It can also show past edits. For example, a creative could use their showreel to show past transitions and color grades in order to assist their client into making a more informed decision on the final piece. Communication is key in the creative industry, therefore being able to show a client as much information as possible will help the shoot and edit run more seamlessly.  My showreel will be used to show my past work, however showreels are also used by actors, animators, musicians, editors, and models. They are usually between 2 to 3 minutes long.  The best showreels contain the widest amount of work that a person has completed. For example, when coming to creating my showreel I am going to include my phot...
