It's difficult for me to tell what part of a project you did from a reel. Did you shoot it, edit it, etc and what resources did you have and how long did it take you. Those things all come into play. Before adding someone to our team, I need to know your skills good, bad and awesome. Really just so I know that it's you who is the one who is the creative mind behind the work. I have a content link ready to send with instructions. The best people who have done this excercise in the past are still with us today, 7 and 8 years later.
Any video that is edited, you will be paid for if we use it. If we use it, you will then move to the 2 day trial.
WE ARE HIRING NOW.
