My name is Chris Stone and I'm a freelance director based in Staffordshire.
I'm not an actor and I don't just run a showreel production company;
directing is my day job and it has been for over a decade.
From script writing to casting, shooting to editing, I have an in depth knowledge across all aspects of production.
I know what makes a strong scene,
I know how to work with actors
and, most importantly,
I know what casting directors and industry professionals want to see from you,
because I'm one of them.
Need a video to show off your acting skills? Want to capture one of your performances on film?Bespoke filmed showreel scenes are a great way to show off your acting talent if you've not yet had the opportunity to be cast in the starring roles you want. They can be the ideal showcase to demonstrate your skills to casting directors and are a useful way to get first-hand experience working in front of camera with a professional director. I can provide custom scripts for you, we will rehearse on the shoot day and your scene will be filmed on a cinema quality camera.

Your showreel is your own personal acting advert; an investment in it, is an investment in your career. I've edited many actors' showreels over the years and watched hundreds more, so I know exactly how to cut together your finest performances into a short, snappy, professional looking reel. And I don't just stick clips together, I go the extra mile. I'll re-edit scenes, tweak sound and enhance picture quality where needed, so you look the best you can be.
