My most recent edit (IK the skiing isn't the best but I'm looking for critiques on the filming/editing part)

My opinion on the reel:

Not a fan of the trampoline shot filmed at night.

For the skiing in a demo reel you don't always need to show the whole shot. Sometimes just the best part of the shot is preferable, I'd recommend going through your shots and selecting those where you crushed it as a filmer and put only the best parts of these shots in your reel.

Also I'm pretty sure I've seen better shots than the last 360 in your other edits. The trick itself isn't amazing and you cut his feet on the landing, it's not an horrible shot but not the best choice for a last shot in a reel.

Overall tho I liked most of the shots and the vibe, good luck with your next projects.

Makes sense. Thanks. Going out and filming a bit this weekend so I will probably add more from there and I will shorten up each shot! Also I'm going to get some good drone shots I'm hyped for that seeing as I haven't gotten many yet
