OK....I ditched the Nissan spot....cutoff everything below 90HZ on the coffee spot....rearranged some of the spots. Did that make a difference? Is it ok?

hahahaha.....Mary....what you didn't know is that Costa Rica is one of the most notorious places for illegal Loon smuggling. They import approximately 53.5 million dollars in Loons annually due to the high demand for the unique sound of the Loon mating call. This spot accidentally caught the Loon's call and the FBI got wind of it and is currently in the process of an investigation. hahahahaha _________________ TG2

Tom... Very nice job reworking to make the number 2 demo.
I'm beginning to feel inspired.
And don't worry about the Loon... most people probably don't even notice.
Just like most people don't notice that the train in the Sleep Train television commercial uses a diesel horn... but it's not a diesel.

Thank You Bailey! Further on in my development, I plan on expanding the demo to reflect more of a variety of styles. I only want to showcase sytles that I feel competent in, not styles that I could probably work to get a demo spot for but be unable to deliver, or at the least have a very difficult time delivering should a client hire me based on that spot on my demo. So....I know I'm a bit limited right now, but I'd much rather be limited and feel confident that I can deliver, than showcase stuff that I have no business showcasing. It may be bad business practice to limit myself like this, but I believe in the long run it will pay off. In the meantime, I'm working hard to broaden my horizons. Thanks again Bailey for the kind words. _________________ TG2

According to an article in Environmental Conservation in 2002, and depending on how strict your definition of "birdwatcher" is, there are an estimated 19 million (strictly defined) to 69 million (somewhat loosely defined) birdwatchers in the United States alone. Very few of them do it for a living, meaning they have to do other things like brain surgery, tooth extraction, telephone repair and video production. Just want you to know what yer up against.
Now I will leave you alone  |

You've got the deep, gravely market cornered!
I'm still a bit of a VO pup so I don't usually critique... but the one thing that really stood out to me was the lack of a higher energy spot to break it up a little. |

Yeah Tom.....I am not competent enough in that kind of delivery to include it in my demo.....this is my demo showcasing my ability as it currently stands. Whenever I feel I am competent in a new delivery style and can actually deliver it if needed, I will include a spot reflecting that on my demo. I just want to be careful not to put something on my demo I can't deliver. The high energy spots are not my forte as of this time in my development. But it's coming....as soon as I can get it in my repertoir. _________________ TG2
