Foot Reel

How do I "undo" backlash on a baitcasting reel?

Just bought a cheap Shakespeare Axiom and a 6 1/2 foot med-heavy action casting rod from BassPro Shops. !4 lb test lineTrying to learn how to use a baitcaster...Extremely frustrating so far. The lure goes about 10 feet, before it tangles, plunging into the water...Any online instructions on how to use one of these things would help

I am sorry to say but you will just have to slowlt work the tangle out!
Now do not cast anymore until you adjust the spool tension to the weight of lure you are using and yes 4lb line on a baitcaster is very small line to use with a medium heavy rod action.

To set tension for lure- allow lure to free fall the lure should come to a slow stop well before hitting the floor(keep thumb on spool to prevent over run)set tension until the lure slowly drops from rod tip and stops with no spool over run at all!
Now out int he yard make some side cast to a target about 10 to 15 foot away using a sweeping action to the rod(do not try to throw"force cast" the lure)!
I have to say again 4lb line on a med/hvy rod is to light unless you are using a 1/2oz lure! I would step up to a heavier line with that rod action.The reel you have is a starter reel just basic and I would say with the rod it should have 10 to 14 lb line to use on it to be more forgiving to "learn" with!

Virginia Reel (Dance) $74.88 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles The Virginia reel is a folk dance that dates from the 17th century. Though the reel may have its origins in Scottish country dance and the Highland reel, and perhaps have an even earlier influence from an Irish dance called the Rinnce Fada, it is generally considered to be an English country dance. The dance was most popular in America from 18301890. The Virginia reel was a popular dance, and in each area there would be slight differences. This has given rise to a large number of dances called the Virginia reel. All of the versions have certain similarities, such as the reel figure. Described below is one version of the Virginia reel. The dancers line up in two lines of 57 couples, partners facing each other. Traditionally men would line up on one side, and women on the other, but that is not necessary. The lines have a head and a foot, with the head couple being the nearest the band or music source and the foot couple at the other end of the line. This formation is the same for any version of the Virginia reel.

How to Get an Amazing Demo Reel

AUGUST IS DEMO REEL Month!

Part I-   How to Get an Amazing Demo Reel

 

1-  Choose Roles That Show Your "Type" And Range. That means how would you be
cast in Primetime/Daytime TV and Films TODAY? Almost all TV series are written in a
consistent format which includes classic types: Interns/Doctors, Lawyers/Criminals,
Detectives/Investigators, Spies/CIA agents, Geeks/Ordinary people and Sexy women
doing something naughty or illegal. That's why we have series like; House, NCIS,
Raising the Bar, Law & Order, CSI, Criminal Minds, 24, Desperate Housewives,
Burn Notice, How I Met your Mother, 30 Rock, etc... OK, so you need to show
WHAT characters in WHICH of these shows you could play. If the clip you want to
put on your reel isn't in the genre of one of the above shows, exclude it. Simple.

2- Don't put "Heavily Dramatic" Scenes on your reel.  This is the biggest mistake
of beginners who want something "juicy" and "serious" to show they can act. Wrong.
Good acting is subtle. Did you ever notice that most student films include a lot of
screaming, heavy drama, crying, yelling obscenities and firing of guns? They think
it's cool. The real industry does not. Scenes that are clever, fast-paced, witty or
humorous, entertaining, intelligent and subtle are closer to the real thing. Go for
those.

3 - Don't Include the Horror, Alien Or Other Sci-Fi With Special Effects Scenes.
Exclude anything overly graphic, gratuitously violent and unwatchable. First time
indie directors love these scenes because it fulfills their agenda to produce a
sensational, money-making, low-budget first feature. It doesn't fulfill YOUR
agenda. No A-list Casting Director or top Agent wants a client whose tacky
demonstration of talent consists of being pursued across the Mall's parking lot
by a maniac wielding a chain saw. Get something better to represent you if
you want representation and any work at all!

4 - Don't Shoot Or Write Your Own Scenes Unless You Really Are A Professional
 Writer who's been writing for years. But then why would you need an actor's
 demo reel?  Find a company (see TAM below) that can produce, write, shoot and
 edit a scene or two for you. You deserve the best so go to professionals. And NEVER
 use a scene that's from a REAL series- it's illegal and you're breaking the copyright
 law! Besides, you'll never look as good as the original. Don't shoot yourself in the
 foot as well!

5- Get The Advice Of An Excellent Editor Who Has Worked On Major Primetime
TV series not just edited low budget indies. The style is different, the pacing, the
music, the LIGHTING and the length of scenes. Better yet, find a Career Coach to
advise you on choice of scenes/roles, wardrobe, image and style. The roles
you will be offered are exactly the ones you display on your reel. Get advice.

6- Make It Short, Fast Paced And FUN! - Show Off Your best traits, personality and
acting ability. Agents can tell in about 10 seconds if they want to work with you.
They don't need to see a long boring dramatic scene. On your website you could
post two or three (1-2 minute) complete "scenes" but if you have a good editor you
should create a "SIZZLE reel". It has about 6-8 (5-10 second) clips that come to a
total of one minute and is much like a fast paced, fun, intriguing trailer to a great
 movie. You can even include a clip from a commercial or music video. Agents, CD's,
 Film producers - EVERYONE in the Industry loves "SIZZLE reels"! So get one!

HAPPY AUGUST!
