A reel is like a video resumé that people on the creative side of the industry use as a promotional tool. It showcases your skills by using clips from past work edited together in a video montage. Longer versions also include full scene clips from films and TV episodes or other work such as commercial or music videos, although these tend to be for people looking for something specific in a director, cinematographer (or DP), editor, actor etc. rather than just to get a general sense of their skill and style.

Here's a link to the montage (the first 3 minutes or so) and the clips (the rest of the video). Enjoy!
