Demo Reels
There is as much of an art to crafting an effective demo reel as there is to crafting an effective drama or comedy, or documentary. Too many people think it's a matter of quickly slapping several clips together, and their presentation
suffers for it.
"I hired Adam Barnick, a filmmaker I always admired to cut a reel for me as I felt i was somewhat stuck professionally and was having a hard time getting new representation. After Adam was done with my reel - I started sending it out and the response was overwhelmingly positive and I obtained strong representation from a top theatrical talent rep. I tell everyone I know about Adam - he's my secret weapon (that's not so secret now)!
- George Gallagher, Actor (CALL OF THE WILD, GARLIC & GUNPOWDER)
"This man is nothing short of brilliant. Adam has a keen intuitive sense for editing, and I've thoroughly enjoyed compiling my Demo Reels with him.
He is a professional; a great conversationalist; generous and efficient with his time; collaborative and courteous ; and an all-around great guy. His Demo style makes us look better than we are!! Highly recommended."
- Brad Crooker, Actor (JANE THE VIRGIN)
Editing for so many years sharpens one's rhythm and understanding of the flow of scenes and clips, and directing actors also adds to one's eye for performance. These two disciplines have allowed me to bring a focus and care to actors' demos that I rarely see.
-Adam Barnick
Adam Barnick is a director and editor who for the past decade has cut dramatic, horror, documentary, music videos, animation and social media ads and has now added actor demo reels to his skill set.
As the owner/CEO of Wicked Tree Creative, a new boutique post production studio, he knows the value of bringing years of craft to a polished presentation of a performer's work.
WHY ME?
I take the storytelling needs of a demo reel as seriously as any film, documentary, music video etc.
And I want to help you present the best version of yourself to the casting world.
