FIVE STARS. Producing a scene with JIG Reel was a great experience and a ton of fun. Justin and his team were top notch; friendly, accommodating, professional. Great communication with the writer. Couldn’t be happier with the final product and would definitely return for more projects!
Jig Reel studIos deserves all the praise. I was extremely nervous prior to working with Jig Reel Studios because I’m new to LA by ways of NY, and I didn’t know anyone personally that has worked with the studio. Shortly after speaking with Justin and getting further information on the process all my nerves turned to excitement, I knew I was on the right path. I originally wanted to do 1 scene and ended up completing 2! Words cannot explain what an amazing experience I’ve had. Fromchoosing my scripts down to being able to rehearsing in studio with one of the most talented directors. Upon arriving I was extremely comfortable. The team arranged for me was perfect to say the least, even down to my scene partners. I don’t think I could have had such an amazing experience without all of the people involved. Andrew, my assigned director was beyond awesome. If your thinking about choosing Jig for anything look no further. They’re the best!
If you want to go to the BEST demo reel in LA. Come here asap. I got 3 produced scenes and took the mentoring class. Now I am signed with Abrams!! Thank you Justin and everyone that has helped make my dreams happen! You guys are amazing and I cant believe it happened so fast!
Jig Reel Rocks!! Thank you so much for the awesome scenes! I cant wait to take the mentoring program. Very professional and the footage came out amazing! Also, I loved how fast they respond to all my questions. Appreciate them all!
Such an awesome studio! Very professional and great staff. I had the opportunity to film multiple scenes at this studio and really had fun filming and really liked the scenes how they came out. I definitely recommend people checking them out. Thanks Jig Reel Studios. Keep up the great work.
These people have become family! JIG Reel Studios took care of me from the start to finish. The footage is truly 4k and Justin was super nice and supportive. Plus they have tons of really cool awesome sets. I have gone to other companies and these guys are the BEST. If you want a professional and a fun environment. You must go to JIG Reel Studios! These are the people you want to go to. Also, I met TWINKIE here too. Shes a well respected Casting Director. 5-stars from me!
JIG Reel Studios is very professional and able to help launch the careers of any aspiring actors.I filmed a reel at their studio earlier this month and received my finished reel within days, as well as an IMDb credit!Justin, Rebekah and the team are great. Highly recommended!
Great service! Best prices in the industry! Awesome work with superior quality! Hands down, theyve earned my repeat business!
If you want an agent and need an awesome demo reel. This is the place to go to. These guys have become family to me and I even got signed off the demo reels. Love these guys. Come here if you want progress in your acting career.
Actors should know! In August I called to book a 3 scene produced reel shoot.Although I am a Union actor, it is clear to me that their standards are no where near union, as one reason we have a union is to prevent massive losses of time on the performers behalf for a task that should be able to be taken care of in a realistic amount of time; especially in scenarios where they put their best foot forward, and then are taken for granted/advantage of. Because this is not paid work, in fact you are paying to produce, they are not subjected to follow any labor laws on set or Union rules for actors they are working with. They take advantage of this as a production co.The guy on the phone was speed talking as fast as possible, and hardly a consultation. They had a 4 MONTH WAITING LIST, and I decided to wait, because the guy on the phone was swearing up and down how great their reels are. He emphasized You should see our waiting list!! This is an unprofessional way to let clients know that you are fully booked out for months; but took my chances, and reserved a spot anyways. I told him I would be calling back shortly with the dates as had a potential trip planned for the ONLY DAY he had available in FOUR MONTHS other than saying well you can go after someone else. So I wait FOUR MONTHS, have a phone conference with my talent agent announcing this new reel and new scenes and asking for their input on characters, types, etc. All the time, waiting on JIG REEL!About 2 weeks before the date, I was contacted for a 5 day UNION background job + fitting + COVID TEST. That is a full week of Union work, background or not, this is a lot of $$. Furthermore, oppurtunities can come out of a long term BG job, and also I have been on FURLOUGH from my DAYJOB as a licensed professional and REALLY needed to book this job. But I also REALLY needed a new reel as a principle performer and had put down a $400 deposit to reserve the November 30 shoot date. So I turned down the work, and lost the opportunity, all the pay too because I was on hold for this reel shoot with JIG REEL STUDIOS for the day of the fitting, thus counting me out for availability to work. Upon noticing that it seemed strange several days prior to the shoot to have not received any confirmations in writing or a call sheet, I decided to call and confirm the details. Surely enough, they had forgotten about me, although they had no problem taking my money, and said they thought I wanted to wait on confirming a date. He didnt remember me calling and confirming this date to shoot!! He also could have cared less about my special circumstances (read below). His response was nearly argumentative, as if I had done something wrong (they should have been apologizing and fixing it HENCE the review). The response was well you should see how booked up and how busy we are. As a small business owner myself who takes private clients for top dollar, this is not a professional way to speak to a client when you are fully booked and there are other ways to say this and go about bookings in a professional manner. They wanted me to leave my $400 deposit and just wait again for a couple months. I decided to ask for a refund, which thankfully I received.PS. I wrote/directed/produced a feature film in 2017, cast of Emmy winners, etc. I notified them I am a Union actor who has had to change my entire portfolio and delete all my REELS after being injured while in a cast/crew shuttle that was hit by a drunk driver after wrapping in 2017. They didnt even remember my story during this process. It is a big deal! Compassion goes a long way.This seems like a place I call a mill and this is because they are running performers through their mill and do not truly care about the end result of the work or how it affects the performer, who is paying top $$ to add to their portfolio pre-produced. Because he was rushing so much every time we spoke, it appears he forgot to write down the shoot date I had reserved.
Ive worked with JIG Reel Studios on several occasions to obtain footage for my reel and Ive yielded great results everytime. The writers are superb at customizing scenes that specifically fit what you need and regardless of where you are in your acting career, their team of professionals bring out and capture the best of your abilities on camera. I highly recommend working with them as they always deliver the biggest bang for your buck.
Good array of staging options. Great crew. Quick turnaround.
Great rates, very professional great people all around.
Honestly, the whole team is so personable! Justin, the owner, does not let his status get to his head! He will go above and beyond to accommodate ones needs and will take time to diligently explain and or address any question or concerns you may have. Just a down to earth decent human being! His knowledge is much appreciated! I look forward to continuing our sessions!
Justin and his team are AWESOME. They were super professional, efficient, and a talented crew who gave excellent suggestions and direction. The whole experience felt exactly like a real set, and the quality of the production was exceptional. My agent and manager LOVE the edit we did, and they are super picky about scenes I can put on my reel with the costar credits I have. Justin even took the time to refit the scene with us to add a few moments we wanted.Thank you to the legends at Jig Reels!!
They good work for how much you spend. Definitely good for a new actor.
I moved to LA right after drama school and I was missing certain materials that would help me elevate my career and Jig Reel Studios was perfect for me to step closer to my dream! I love how much they worked with me so I can get my vision of myself out there...from the script writing to my costume. I had a wonderful director and crew! Everyone was professional and I just signed with an agency about a month after doing my scenes! I would recommend this company if you’re looking for a start!
The staff at Jig Reels are amazing, super professional and talented! I was immensely satisfied with my demo reel and will definitely be going back to do another.
Jig Reels is an amazing studio for the individual that wants to take there career to the next level. Hands down I would reccomend them to anyone. In addition the mentoring program is the best thing because Justin is an industry elite. He gives you insight on what you should be focusing on to be a beast in the entertainment industry. Thanks Justin keep up the great work!!!!!
Jig Reel Studios is one of the most impressive companies I have ever had the pleasure of working with. Justin and his talented team worked with me from start to finish. In the consultation, I told them what I needed, and they delivered. The editors took the time to walk me through the editing process to make sure the final cut turned out perfect! This company is the perfect combination of professionalism, creativity, and fun. They are and fantastic group of individuals! I highly recommend JIG Reel Studios if you want professional results.
Best place to get your demo reel shot. I got 4 produced scenes and they turned out amazing. My agent referred me and boy it was worth it. They were super professional and always made time to work with me. I ended up booking a show on TNT because of the scenes. I even saw an increase of auditions and cant wait to work with them again. Thanks again JIG Reel Studios!
Had a great time with these guys. I shot 4 scenes with them. I only ended up using 3 of them in my reel, but I think it came out excellent!I look forward to working with these guys again!
Ive worked with JIG Reel on a couple different occasions. They. Are. Great. Very professional and helpful, always in a positive way!When I booked my scenes with them, I let them book my scene partners. You never know what youre going to get when you meet someone an hour before you shoot. All of my partners that JIG Reel picked for me were ALSO professional and on point. I trusted them, without a doubt, to make the right right choices and they did not let me down.
Was in need of a demo reel and a friend recommended JIG Reel Studios. Called them and scheduled a consultation. Justin was very attentive to everything I said. He gave me a few suggestions and then scheduled a shoot day. Everyone was so helpful and very professional when filming. I got two scenes done and it was a great investment. Im so happy with the outcome and would recommend them 100% to any actor out there looking for a demo reel.
Justin and his staff are extremely incredible and super talented. I was recommended to them by a friend and I must say it was well worth the recommendation. The whole process was very professional and the footage came out world class!!! I would definitely recommend them to others for all video production needs! Thank you again Justin and your staff!!! Job well done!
The people at JIG Reel are amazing to work with! They are all super professional and really care about creating a quality reel. Whether comedy or drama, the finished product is fantastic. And they create a fun and relaxing environment so that actors of all ranges can feel comfortable and confident! I highly recommend them!
Stellar. Ive researched reel production companies throughout the years in both LA and NYC and have never been happy with the overall production quality. When I found Jig Reel Studios it was an immediate yes. I could tell right away from their example footage they knew what they were doing. I bit the bullet and have no regrets. I recommend them to all! If you are just starting out or need to update your reel this is the company to hire. They are also a great group to work with - great writers, great directors, sound, crew, editors - everyone is a pleasure to work with and they provide you with a quality product. No more sketchy shoots on the weekend with friends or indie films with footage you may never see or cannot use. This company delivers - quality and quick turn around. True professionals.
I did three produced scenes with Jig Reel and they were very professional. I love working with them. They take care of you and your scenes. I am currently doing the Mentoring Program and i’ve been learning a lot. It helped me create an action plan to further my acting career.
I was extremely impressed with Jig Reel Studios and recommend them to any actor that is looking for a professional demo reel. Justin and his team are very talented and easy to work with, they focused on me and exceeded my expectations from start to finish. Justin is extremely knowledgeable about the industry and listened to my needs about how I wanted to present myself to casting, they even took the time to walk me through the editing process to make sure I was satisfied with the final product. I couldn’t be happier about my experience with Jig Reel Studios because they helped me push my career to the next level.Thank you Justin and his team!
I needed to update my demo reel and JIG Reel Studios did such an incredible job! Justin and his staff are extremely professional and the quality of the footage is spectacular! The best part about working with JIG Reel Studios is their scenes are customized for you. The turn around time for the scenes was so fast. I highly recommend them!
Very impressed with my experience working with Jig Reel. I was in need of a demo reel and found them on Yelp. Scheduled a consultation and spoke to Justin about the type of demo reel I wanted. The shoot was great and the crew was so professional. Great group of people at JIG. I was so happy when I received my reel. Can’t thank them enough! Would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a high quality demo reel!!
If you have goals of making it in the entertainment industry and this is your PASSION, then Jig Reel Studios has the tools, crew and creative education to make you a better actor and perfecting your craft. Theyre professional every step of the way, you wont regret it and youll thank yourself in the future for working with Jig Reel. This is NOT for anyone who wants the easy way out in life or having FAME given to them...they will teach you how to stay relevant and how to become a working actor/actress in HOLLYWOOD.
As soon as I moved to Los Angeles I immediately started searching for a company that could help me with my reel. Out of every company that I researched, I decided to go with JIG Reel not only because of their level of professionalism but also because of how willing they were to work with the vision that I had. They were more than happy to work with me until I was completely satisfied with everything before my scene was filmed. Not only did it come out perfect but it also helped me to land representation and also book my first commercial. I’ve sent my footage out to numerous people around LA and am constantly hearing nothing but positive feedback. Thanks so much JIG Reel!! You guys ROCK!!!!:)
Ok, where to begin... first of all if you are looking for an efficient and reliable company to get your new reel done, look no further! Not only is Justin and his team amazing and professional, they are also great people and loads of fun to work with, which is really important to me as I wanted to feel relaxed and comfortable when filming my scenes. Justin is an absolute gem, he went above and beyond to ensure I was happy with my scenes and patiently allowed me to sit in on the editing process. On top of all this you would be happy to know that they work super fast! Which is great if you need your scenes done ASAP!As others have stated, there is a reason JIG Reel Studios has consistently scored 5 stars for their services. Highly recommended.Also, it is a shame that Kay S. felt the need to post a bogus review on such a great company, after working with Justin and his team, reading this review is beyond funny and holds no true substance what so ever.
Did the mentor program and had two scenes filmed with jig. They have helped me so much everyone is so nice and helpful. I couldnt thank them enough for everything theyve done!
I found JIG through a friend. The entire process from beginning to end was very professional and exceeded all expectations. My agents were very pleased and I have a great and quality reel to use for auditions. It was incredible to work with people who know what they are doing and to create the best reel for each person as an individual.
I wish I could give this company more than 5 stars. Justin and the staff at Jig Reel are absolute professionals and their work is incredible. Their mentoring program is awesome as well, and was instrumental in helping me find representation. If you’re looking for a company to produce your scenes, go to Jig Reel Studios!
Best demo reel business in L.A. I ordered 3 scenes from these guys and had an amazing experience. They were kind and even helped me after the shoot understand the business more. I got signed by Momentum and thanks to these guys!!
JIG Reel Studios shot and edited my top quality Demo Reel and it’s been a valuable tool for me. The crew was very professional and my shoot went very smooth. Jig Reel also brings Actors and Filmakers together making a great support group for me and I’ve become friends with the staff. They bring me back to Act opposite of other clients and that helps keep my skills sharp. Jig Reel is more than a Demo Reel company.
I was very impressed by my experience with Jig Reel Studios. They are extremely talented and reliable. If you’re looking to create or update your Demo Reel, this is the place to go. You won’t be disappointed!
For those aspiring actors that are serious about investing in their future...professionally produced, filmed, and edited demo reels are an invaluable tool that will provide your career with the desired next step. When I first started my journey and research regarding credible demo reel and scene production companies, one company name kept being mentioned JIG Reel Studios. I decided, after much contemplation, to proceed with the initial free consultation and spoke with Justin regarding my exact specifications. Justin assured me they could produce the quality product I desired.Needless to say, I proceeded with starting the process of filming not one...but two demo reels during the same booking. From the initial discussion with Justin, to speaking with the writer regarding my creative vision for the storylines of my demo reels, to reviewing the scripts produced by the writer, to the actual filming of the demo reels...I couldnt have asked for a more professional, friendly, and knowledgeable group of individuals.Book your appointment with JIG Reel Studios today and take your acting career to the next level. It will be one of the best marketing based decisions you will ever make.
This is the best company that I have ever done business with Justin is literally the best every time I call him he’s so friendly and so eager to help I went there for my demo reel and it was the best decision I could’ve ever made thank you so much guys you guys are the best.
Not very professional at all, there seems to be a language barrier with Justin the owner. He was not clear how to translate English so that it was comprehensible. There was a lot of back and forth to get things completed and corrected. Communication about the filming area, availability of space for changing was reviewed at the last minute and changed on filming day, because the script that he employed someone to write didnt make sense. He discovered this at the last minute, and the script had to reworded moment before filming. The final product was not good and the director had to be told about the corrections to make with the editing & characters names. The film credit was not posted as promised in a timely fashion and was also not posted correctly. It was a complete waste of money and horrible experience. I would not use them or refer them to anyone.He tried to say I was racist on Yelp, because I addressed his comprehension problem. That was not the case, I have to reason to mean. He also said he is the one that does all of the editing as well as being the Owner, that means ALL the blames goes to him.This was a SAG short that was to be noted on IMDB, he told me it wasnt a movie. We discussed all the details prior to filming.His rebuttal only validates his lack of attention and professionalism, because he didnt understand anything we discussed.Dont waste your money or time!!!!
Professional and timely. Scenes came out beautifully and the chosen director was amazing to work with. My scenes have helped me to get a manager, an agent, and in many audition rooms for top CDs. I would recommend Jig Reel Studios to any actor and would hire them again.
Thank you Justin!Great crew and great company!You guys have been super helpful from the start and extremely friendly throughout!Astonishing reel! The best reel that ive received to date and the editors are super talented!Hats off to you and your company sir!
Jig Reel studios is the best place to get your reel done! They are professional, and they produce quality scenes that you can be proud of. Definitely recommend them!
I worked with JIG at the end of December and in the one month since, I have booked two jobs for Netflix- one of them solely off my reel. Not only was the crew absolutely wonderful to work with; but my director, Matias Ponce, was so helpful. Everything was very professional and I was so happy with the content I received back from them. My two scenes were added to my IMDb page and they came back very quickly.
Be AWARE!! False advertisement. They do not give you the IMDB credits as they say. Often under the wrong name or missing credits. The men are young and inexperienced. Not a legitimate business. Don’t waste thousands of dollars on a reel. These guys are ripping people off and taking advantage of people! No refunds. Fake good reviews.
Jig Reel Studios was very professional from the beginning of the process to the very end. Justin and his staff made sure that everything was in order before I arrived. Filming went smooth and it did not take us long to film each scene. Justin and his team are top notch and I will definitely work with them again!
I just started the mentoring program with Justin and I must say Im impressed. He is very knowledgable of the industry and really cares about his students success. I will be using all the services he offers and know I will be successful because of them. If you are still on the fence about it I suggest going to meet him and you will be happy with what he offers.
Best demo reel company in Los Angeles. Youll get high quality scenes and was worth every penny. Justin and his team were super professional and definitely working with them again.
Wow is all I can say just wow. If you’re looking for a supportive team to help you make your demo reel. LOOK NO FURTHER. I came all the way from Tampa florida. Jig Reel studios is the most professional out there. I filmed two scenes with them and I feel it wouldn’t have been done right if I went elsewhere. The director Matias Ponce is what a director should be. He pulled both me and the other actors into the scene so well it was powerful. I feel in the short few hours I was with him I became a better actor when I left! Thank you to Justin both manager and (camera) Greyson and all the amazing crew members. You’ve made my day!
Love these guys! I ordered 3 scenes and did the mentoring program. 5 weeks later I signed with Abrams Artist Agency. I highly recommend these guys and thank you so much guys!
Go see Justin. He is the man. Also he has a great group of people working with him.
They are the BEST ! My demo reels came out way better than I was expecting it. Special thanks to the owner Justin. He took hes time to make sure I understood everything, bc English is not my first language. The crew was beyond professional. I highly recommend them. Love JigReel .
JIG Reel has been a great experience! Everyone was extremely helpful and always willing to listen to my ideas and suggestions!
