          When

          Any time a product is being shown off.

          Context

          Fucking anything. Apple showing off its new iPhone features, a studio showing clips from its upcoming shows, and an actor showcasing their previous work.

          A short video normally no longer than 3 minutes designed to show off a product, usually in the form of a montage.

          It’s an old term so I can’t imagine how you could live your life and not hear the term.

            There’s no need to be a dick about it, just because you know a something doesn’t mean everyone else must also know it. I can guarantee there’s common terms you aren’t familiar with. Especially when you consider that this is marketing jargon with common alternate terms (eg demo reel).
