DJ Stokes - Editing Demo Reel '09

I decided to shoot some stuff specifically for my demo reel as an example of things I can do. Watched it on my laptop just now ... Definitely better hooked up to a system. IF YOU CAN, PLEASE WATCH THIS VIDEO WITH BASS! (speakers w/ subs ... sounds way better).

Anyway, I welcome the constructive criticism. I may make a few changes for the version I hand out on DVD, but more than likely this will be my final youtube version.

I mostly used Final Cut and After Effects, but I also used a little bit of Motion and Blender. I scored/sound design with Sound Track Pro ... could probably use more work on that end. lol For a small part during the hip-hop type part in the beginning I used part of an instrumental from RockItPro.com (Royalty free lol)

For now, all I have is my personal website www.dinostokes.com but I should have a company website up and running within a month ... hopefully sooner!

Wow DJ, good job! I like how it is a different take on a demo reel, how it has a narrative which kept me watching. Keep it up! =)

p.s. I thought the first shot of you looking at the TV was from Heathanism at first =P
