The Mill has not only a laundry list of awesome projects to showcase here in their 2009 showreel, but they have crafted it together in a very well thought out, provocative, and seamlessly thematic edit. Some of the continuity created between relative shot sequences really helps add to the drama and dynamics, in making some of those beautiful vfx moments really live togther well as a whole entity. Also a great choice in music as it is subtle yet it lends itself so well to the edit and doesn’t get tired after several minutes.
Be sure to also check out some of the really interesting and educational behind the scenes clips on some of the process work that goes into these great vfx moments at the The Mill Podcast.
