Showreel Examples

For my showreel I plan on looking at Character design in 2D and then animating any characters I design.
Here is an example of such things.


2D Animation Showreel example.









This reel has given me some good ideas as to how I am going to plan and lay out how my showreel should look based on whichever format I am showing off at various parts.


Looking at Demo Reels

I have been looking for an existing demo reel that is what I would like my show reel to be in the same style.
I have done this by looking at various 2D character show reels and have found one that I like.

I like the way this reel is set out with the concepts for characters is set out next to what the artist would like for the colored and cleaned version.

I think I will use the example of showing a turn around as it goes along with the video, showing my progression along the character.

I would also like to include some life drawing in my show reel to show that I have tried to improve my understanding of the human form for my designs.
