“Route Nine Showreels were absolutely brilliant, they were so friendly and reassuring to work with and made the whole day such an enjoyable experience. Having written my scenes myself, they fully understood my vision for the scenes and were completely open to our suggestions, whilst still adding extremely beneficial insight to make the scenes as brilliant as possible.

They were also extremely accommodating, even going as far as to organise a new location within a minute’s notice due to unforeseen weather conditions, ensuring there were as little delays to filming as possible.

They edited and delivered both scenes in excellent time, without allowing the quality of the edits to drop as a consequence, and the final scenes are better than anything I could’ve imagined.

I can’t recommend Route Nine Showreels enough, and I want to thank Teri and Michael (as well as everyone else involved on the day, including the dogs) for making the entire experience so enjoyable.”

“Seriously, there isn't enough great things that I can say about Route Nine Showreels! If you want to work with a company that GET not only you as an actor, but also YOU as a person, look no further.

Teri and Mike are supportive, collaborative, industry focussed and a hoot - helping you to create scenes that are intrinsically YOU, showcasing you in your very best and highly eye-catching light!

The encouraging, flexible, fun and safe space they create during planning sessions and on the day are unparallelled. I wouldn't want to go to anyone else for Showreels - actors, these are your people!”

“Route Nine are absolutely fantastic to work with.

They really go the extra mile on elements such as location and script and this, combined with helpful and specific direction creates not only a professional looking reel but a safe and fun space to act and explore.”

“I had such a brilliant experience working with Route Nine Showreels. Both Teri and Mike created such a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere when filming, that I felt I was able to deliver my best performance. It was such a creative and collaborative process, and the direction given really enhanced the scene and highlighted the comedic moments within it. I loved how they were willing to try lots of things out (including using a dog in the scene!)

The communication prior to filming was especially beneficial, and meant that we were all on the same page with what we were wanting to achieve on the day.

The end product was exactly what I imagined when writing, and I felt they both brought my vision to life perfectly. The quality of the showreel was amazing and I’ve had many comments on how professional it looks. Could not recommend them enough!”

“Route Nine Showreels were absolutely amazing to work with. They made me feel so comfortable and relaxed while filming, supporting my performance by talking through the scene and giving extremely helpful direction.

The final product was everything I could have hoped for, and I absolutely recommend.”

“I thoroughly enjoyed working with Teri and Mike at Route Nine. They make you feel incredibly comfortable whilst maintaining professionalism.

They’re great at giving you direction to create the greatest outcome for your scene, making it the best it can be. Would highly recommend!”

“The day itself we had a good laugh and managed to get some great work done at the same time; both Teri and Michael are very professional, and each brought something magic to the scene wether it was a filmmaking technique or just making sure us as the actors are comfortable to perform.”

“The importance was technical quality- eg. good lighting, sound, visuals- all of which I was very happy with.

And in terms of the scene, it was shot just how I envisioned it. Can always rely on Route Nine to do a cracking job :)”

“I felt like you not only understood my casting bracket, but also helped to make me feel more confident that I understood it too.

Teri has a great feel for comedy, and her direction, especially with that side of things, really helped the scene come together.

I was very satisfied with the final result - it’s so good that I’ve even been asked what TV programme it’s clipped from!”

“I felt as though my vision for the reels was perfectly adapted into two great quality scripts, communication prior to writing and shooting really helped this, and the final product was even better than I could have hoped for.

Teri’s direction allowed me and the other actors on set to find beautiful moments within the script that really helped bring the pieces to the next level. The team really made us feel comfortable while filming.

What could have been a stressful and long day in the wrong hands, was in fact a relaxed and well organised one, filled with plenty of anecdotes and jokes… As well as hard graft. Perfectly balanced to keep everyone smiling.”

“Route Nine are awesome! We were filming a slapstick/ farce and it was a collaborative and open process which I loved.

The team really took their time to make sure all the lighting, set and angles were the best they could be, so very attentive to detail which was really refreshing.

Now having got the scene back, I can honestly say the vision was completely fulfilled, also offering room for tweaking if we felt necessary as a team.

Route Nine allowed the imagery and words to come off the page and onto the screen which is a difficult job for the style of scene we went for.

Overall, I loved working with the team at Route Nine and will hopefully be using their expertise again!”

“I was blown away not just by their passion for what they do, but by the amount of collaboration it took to pull off the scene.

And they were an absolute joy to be around, great hospitality and good fun all around.

Northern Actors, you’d be stupid to not drop them a message! “

“I have been wanting to work specifically with Route Nine Showreels since the beginning of the year now, because the results of their work I have seen on their page had stood out to me, and I knew that they were the best company for me to have produce a good quality scene for my showreel.

And what a joy it was to collaborate with Mike and Teri on this scene. Both super friendly and easy to work with, whilst encouraging me to be open with exploring the scene, and the relationship between the two characters, in and around the script.

A really lovely experience throughout, and I cannot wait until I work with them both again! “
