[music playing] i think it really just needsto show off the range of things which you think bestdescribes you as a person, you as a creative individual. we're looking for people whoare passionate about doing, who are really creative. tell us what you're about. and make sure thatyou're happy with it. it's best to use everything,have fun, experiment.
show as much as you canand a range of what you can, because then you're goingto look more desirable to them, be it fabric, be itphotos, painting, drawing. you obviously want toshow your best pieces because you want a place. but you should be showingthe process as well, the beginning of theproject, how you approached that, your creative process andhow you've advanced upon that. i think it's really importantto make them succinct,
just like a reallysimple statement that shows what you were thinkingwhen you were creating that. you know a lot of peoplecan have different opinions and reactions to art. and so it's important to showpeople what you were thinking, what you were intending. showing us things which maybedidn't work, as long as they understand why theydidn't work out and maybe have to improve it in the futureand that's absolutely fine.
creative failures arestill creative acts. this should read like a story. and it should progressthrough to your initial idea, your development. then it should getto the final piece. so it needs toshow you understand the running of things. i didn't necessarilyput it chronologically. i mean you could, butfor me, i preferred
to sort of mix up a little bit. really important to includein your portfolio, just a piece that really just makesa statement, is a wow piece. that's something that's goingto stay with the people that are looking at it. remember that one piece. art is all about beinginspired by other artists and what you see around you. it shows that you areinterested in you subjects,
you're branching out. and it's important to show, youknow, where that comes from. students will have all sortsof hobbies, interesting things, kind of adds something. will this be of interest? that can be really nice to seeand just give a bit of range to the portfolio as well. making a digital portfoliois going to look exactly like that when you present it.
you can get it out therereally easily over email. a lot of people canbe seeing it at once. it's much quicker and it'smuch more user friendly. a lot of people appreciatehaving that quality. if you come to uni,you're going to have to work with other people. ask friends, family. your art teaches,your graphics teaches. you're not cheating byasking someone for help.
they know you. they know how to make aportfolio work for you. everybody is completely unique. as long as you love what you'vebrought, they'll see that. we're looking for you. we're looking at how youthink, what you're about, what really enthusesyou, where you want to go with yourcareer, really gets across who you are as a person.
