No reel? No problem.
Most actors dislike the process of having to create their demo reel.
Why? Because 90% of the process of creating a demo reel is completely out of your hands!
Well that's where Demo Reels NYC comes in. We want to make the reel creation process as easy as possible for you.
Our goal? Take the footage you currently have and edit it to look WAY better. (Don't have any footage yet? Click here)

"No matter how poorly shot and unprofessional your original footage looks, my team is trained to make your reel look great."

How? By clipping, cutting, and adjusting in a creative way.
Although we can't work miracles and actually re-light and re-shoot your footage, we're able to use special editing techniques that allow us to focus the scene more on you (while ensuring it still flows smoothly), apply professional color correction to make sure every shot pops and looks clear on different computer monitors, and implement advanced audio mixing and noise reduction to help your voice sound clearer and louder.
We'll take whatever footage you send to us and create an engaging demo reel that keeps casting directors watching all the way to the end.

The Process
|
Step 1. When you reach out to us, we’ll respond to set up an initial consultation call where we'll discuss your needs and clarify what makes the most sense for where you're at in your career. In this phone call, we’ll find out your brand/type and how to best present it through your reel. We'll then discuss what types of footage you’re working with and how best to get the footage to us. Step 2. After our consultation call is finished and we’ve confirmed what package you’ll be moving forward with, we’ll email you a link to place your payment so we can get started. Step 3. Once payment has been placed, you’ll send us links to your footage online (and you can mail us any DVDs or hard-copy footage). If you have any notes on how you’d like us to edit your reel, you can send those over as well. Step 4. At that point, we’ll take care of everything - downloading and converting your files, editing them together, adjusting color balance and sound on the clips to make them look even better than the original footage, and sending you back a private link to see the cut. The editing process usually takes less than a week. Step 5. At that point, if you’re happy with the reel, you’re done! If you still have further adjustments you want, you can easily email us back with any change requests and we’ll take care of them within a few business days. |
Packages
PACKAGE 1Full Reel Edit
$350 If you don't already have a reel (but have a bunch of clips), this is the option for you. Our editing packages take place entirely online, so you'll just need to send us your footage (email us the URL links or snail mail the DVD's) and we'll take care of the rest.
After we send the reel to you, you'll have the opportunity to send us any changes you still need. It usually takes us a week to edit everything after you've sent us the links. Vertical Divider

PACKAGE 2Make an Edit
from $150 If you already have a reel but want it shortened, a scene switched, or something specific done to it, we can help you out. You'll send us your new footage and current reel, along with instructions about what you need adjusted, and we'll have the edit done within a week.
If you need a lot of things changed in the reel, the price might be higher, but the base charge covers most standard edits to reels (changing out 1-2 clips, or a song, etc.). Vertical Divider
|
PACKAGE 3Shoot a Scene
from $599 Do you not have enough footage to create a reel, or do you want to take your current reel up a notch with a high-end scene? We offer the option of shooting a scene custom-written for you, based on a character or type that you're going for.

Kind Words

I've worked with Martin twice...once on a "Screener Shoot" where he shot a dramatic scene specifically written for me for my actor reel and again on a headshot shoot where he got numerous great shots of me - specifically a new "legit" headshot. Each time I've worked with Martin he's been professional and relaxed, which helps me to be at my best.

Working with Martin was a great experience. I have worked with him twice now and I highly recommend him. He's fast, friendly and produces great quality work at very affordable prices.

I was an attendee at an industry seminar where Martin Bentsen was the keynote speaker. During the presentation, there was something about his poise & mannerism that made me want to take a closer look. So, I booked with him and I wasn't disappointed. I was relieved to discover the rest of his team was composed of professional & like minded artists. It's such a breath of fresh air to know that are still some genuinely sincere & professional businesses out there. I highly recommend Demo Reels NYC for any and all of your reel needs!
