Thanks for the bump Bingo. I've actually just updated this reel to go on my DeEd 2.5 disc - I've made a few alterations and additions and used some higher quality sources for many sections.
Here's the new version, albeit in rather low quality (my grain filters played merry hell with the high compression rate needed by Vimeo):

I'd love to use more 'local' cinema continuity (as shown in your second link) but I haven't found such things outside of Youtube and 720p isn't very forgiving of lower quality sources. I made an exception for the Old Spice ad at 2:51 because I love it so, but even that I hope to upgrade at some point.
As always, any ideas for improvement are welcome!
