yes...bear in mind the duration of your showreel.
most of ppl will close the showreel if there is nth surprising.
in my memory, my former tutor told me the first thing have to do is the Smooth cut in the whole animation.
will you try to do a rough animatic first?
you can preview your smooth video cut through animatic.
no matter how great your animation is, incorrect video cut will destory all cg segements in your animation.
just make the cut smooth 1st.
