2008 Demo Reel: Looking for Feedback

[jpcoombs]

I just finished a demo reel of my work over the last 2 years. It includes some commercial shoots, motion graphics and animation for a cartoon I created. I wanted to get some feedback from the community (I'll be using this to apply to a few video production jobs here in Denver).

Take a look:

Love to hear what you all think.

I was impressed with the overall flow of the reel. Some very good examples of your work, and have to say the motion graphics work is good.

What struck me as kind of odd was the mixing of your video reel with motion graphics/animation. This is just my opinion, but I think having two separate specific reels might be better than being the "all around guy".

This is why I love feedback. I have shown this to all my close friends and family and gotten a good reaction - but none of us even considered breaking it up into two seperate elements. Even when I was putting it together I felt there was a break between video elements and motion/animation. Good thoughts - thanks.
