The Sizzle Reel has become a powerful tool for film and television professionals.
An effective Sizzle Reel successfully introduces your project in an emotionally powerful and visually exciting way to producers, executives, agents, managers, investors, and talent. It allows them to see and feel the story - enriching the experience of reading your script and comprehensively understanding the awesome potential of your project being produced. It will inspire them to take action.
A Sizzle Reel is similar in format and running time to a theatrical trailer - approximately two minutes. In most cases, due to budget and logistics, the reel is produced incorporating found footage, a mix of graphic materials, both original and previously created and emotionally compelling music, either originally scored or open sourced.
What We Do
We carefully study your script and in close consultation with you, we identify the heart and core strengths of your project.
