So what makes a good TV Presenter Showreel?

Well firstly it’s worth knowing they have a bad reputation in our industry.  The majority of showreels we get sent feature people pretending to be a TV Presenter.  They have either gone on a TV Presenter Course that they have found on line, or have filmed them themselves and often tell you nothing about who you are and what makes you different.

You need to think of yourself as a unique brand.  Why would someone buy you and for what TV show? Try to make your reel unique to you – and make sure the links are short and fit the kind of work you want to go for.

It’s a vital thing to get right.

And also we tend to call them Talent Taster Tapes in TV as showreels have such a bad reputation!

Hope this helps.
