Producers & Creatives: when reviewing reels for a project, what’s your strategy? First few spots only, watch spots based on brand or thumbnail, well known company or director name first and foremost?

Depending on the type of director I’m looking for, it only takes me the first 3-4 spots and I know if he/she is right. I’m not looking to see my board on any reel, but if I’m looking for dialogue and subtle comedy, along with great casting, it’s pretty obvious to me if they have it or if they don’t.

Dialogue , subtle comedy and casting is literally all I’m good at…Great at.

Reps, you have a client who you’ve had for less than a year. You’ve helped them secure a couple small jobs in that time span. They book a big job with an agency that isn’t a house account but certain producers and clients at that agency are noted as house accounts. The job came through a reco from one of those house account producers. Do you charge the full 25k commission, even though you didn’t really have a hand in the sale, and the client already had a strong relationship with the agency?
