The reel room
15 finished pieces, 67 minutes of them, made between 2021 and 2026. Every one has a page of its own, so an actor can send one link rather than a channel.
Scenes, films, class work and work made for other people. 10 of them were already on this site and 4 were on no site of ours at all.
Runtime read from each video rather than estimated, and printed on every card so nobody presses play on faith.
The oldest is from 2021 and the newest from 2026, which is the part a single showreel cannot show you.
Scenes written for the actor
An original scene, written for the people in it
Nobody here performs a monologue a casting director has already seen four hundred times. The scene is written for the actor who is going to play it, then directed and shot the way a short film is shot.
The films, and the episodes
A film cast entirely from FilmLab students
Wired and Diana were made with Koevari Pictures and cast from the people in these classes, not from auditions held outside them. Every student in them carries the credit under their own name on IMDb.
Students, on camera and on stage
The weekly class, as it actually comes out
Class work and end of year performances. This is what the room produces rather than a promotional cut of it, which is why some of it is a polished scene and some of it is a whole night on a stage.
Commissioned work
Work our director makes for other people
Not everything here was made by FilmLab. This is commissioned work: a client comes to Koevari Pictures with a brief, and the same director and the same crew who run the production days go and shoot it.
The director
The person directing the production days
The production days are run by somebody who directs and produces for a living, and this is the reel rather than the claim. It is here for the same reason the teachers list their own credits: you should be able to look.
One link, not a folder
Why every one of these has its own address
A casting director opens what they are sent and nothing else. Send a channel and they scroll past sixty-seven videos looking for the one they were told about. Send a page and they see the scene, who is in it, how long it runs and where it was made, and then they can press play.
The address does not move. It is the same link next term and the term after, so a student can put it on a CV and leave it there.
Every performer has one too. If you have watched a scene and want to know what else that actor has done, their name on the page is a link to all of it.
