TESTIMONIALS
"I consider myself very fortunate to have picked Linda & James -Inquisitive Pictures - to produce my first showreel on returning to acting after a 20yr career break. They both guided me through the whole process from picking scenes through to arranging location and great actors to work with. On the day I felt totally taken care of and sensitively and professionally directed to draw the best performance out of each take, enabling me to leave any nerves behind and thoroughly enjoy just acting. I’m so pleased with the final edited reel and would not hesitate to recommend their services highly - you're in safe hands. Not all directors know how to handle actors - Linda & James most certainly do."
Deirdre Forrest - Actor
"What is brilliant is they took care of everything from finding the location to having an original script written to matching me with another actor, directing me and crafting a first class result. All I had to do was turn up and act. Since posting my reel on Spotlight I was able to get representation and a number of unsolicited approaches from casting directors, one of which lead to a small role in Tomb Raider working opposite Alicia Vikander. I don't think that would have happened without the showreel from Inquisitive Pictures."
Shekhar Varma - Actor
"James and Linda provided me with three high quality original scripts after discussing the kind of scenes and characters I wanted to play. On the day of filming they had absolutely everything sorted so I could focus exclusively on the acting. They helped me relax and gave excellent notes and all in all created the perfect environment, especially considering due to COVID. All in all they were fantastic to work with, and would highly recommend them to anyone else. "
Daniel Brindley - Actor
"I went along with two of my best friends for the shoot, and we had a blast working with Linda and James. They are so easy to work with and passionate about bringing the best performance from us. But first and foremost, they are great filmmakers, and they helped me create not just good showreel scenes but something I want to watch and enjoy. I can't recommend them highly enough."
Yuna Shin - Actor
"As soon as I arrived, Linda & James made me feel at ease and there was a supportive and relaxed atmosphere throughout the day which gave me the freedom and space to try different ideas with the help of their excellent direction! I was slightly concerned about filming during the COVID-19 pandemic but they instantly made me feel safe- the space we used was big enough for everyone to keep their distance, we each had our own area to relax in in-between scenes, hand sanitiser was provided and masks were worn at all times around us. I had an amazing time filming my showreel and couldn't be happier with the result!"
Amie Howes - Actor
"I am enormously grateful to Linda and James for the fantastic hard work and care they put into my showreel - especially in light of the interruption caused by coronavirus. The shoot day was great fun. Despite the COVID-adjusted filming, the atmosphere was safe, relaxed and creative. And thanks to their excellent cinematography and editing, there's no sense of socially distant filming - the end result looks and sounds amazing. Thank you!"
Karl Wilson - Actor
"James & Linda at Inquisitive were such a joy to work with. There are so many showreel companies on the market and choosing who to go with can be quite a minefield; Inquisitive are not the cheapest but they're worth every penny. They are consummate professionals - thorough and supportive at all stages of the process and focused on helping you achieve the best possible results. I can't recommend them highly enough."
Sarah Wanendeya - Actor
"I thoroughly enjoyed working with Linda and James. On the day of the shoot they took control and all I needed to do was act. Even though I've never met them before, in an instance they managed to create a relaxed and safe, yet professional, atmosphere. And as an extra I got a few useful industry tips."
Timo Teern - Actor
"The quality of the writing was of a very high standard, and Linda and James are friendly and professional - they also know how to direct actors, so you have the best chance of giving a strong performance on your reel. Fantastic!"
Tom Lynam - Actor
"Working with Linda & James was a treat. They are both incredibly professional which yields amazing results in their films. I felt extremely comfortable with their direction and visions for my showreel and, as a graduating drama school student, they both gave me some invaluable advice about the industry I am entering. I highly recommend this team!"
Seb Yates Cridland - Actor
"Shooting my showreel was an absolute dream! The team were incredibly professional and hardworking and the shoot day was great fun and such a memorable day - I felt they put everything they had into my showreel and I am so happy with the final product, the whole experience went above and beyond my expectations! I would definitely recommend Inquisitive Pictures to anyone looking to get a high quality showreel to be proud of to show off their talents!"
Sophie Fisher - Actor
"Undoubtedly one of the best showreels I have seen among the many professional actor showreels I have viewed over the years. Brilliant production quality, editing and sequencing portray the actor in the most diverse way possible, showing flexibility for very different types of role on stage and on screen."
