Good to see your keeping busy. Here are few things I would change:
A demo reel should be:
1) Open strongly (Best or most memorable work first) 2) The middle should include intersting work 3) Close with something to remember - Thats if the view hasn't swithed it off first (you only get about 10 seconds to grab people remember)
So,
1) Lose your title scene at the beginning. It slows your reel down before it starts. 2) Put your colourful sea characters at the beginning. 3) Put the buildings in the middle and make sure to include the textured version of the church first. 4) Finish on the fairytale characters. 5) Include you title card at the end 6) Lose the court case scene and room. You have better work already. 30 seconds of something good is better the 1 minute 30 seconds of additional padding. 7) Speed up each shot a little. Lingering too long on a shot can bore people and make then switch off.
