A little reminder on Portfolios

I know we have spoken about them quite a lot but I think a recap is still useful.

A portfolio is a set of pieces of creative work intended to demonstrate a persons ability to a potential employer or university interviewer.

A portfolio should demonstrate:

  • The type of designer you are
  • The work you have done up until this point
  • Your potential to succeed  in the job or on the course
  • Your individuality
  • Your passion for the subject
It should highlight the best work you can produce and you should feel proud of it!

An option for you to consider is creating an online portfolio or going online to have a look at the quality of work that people are creating in education and industry.

So here are a few links:

 If you have any questions, need advice or would like to post a link to your own work please do so in a comment. It would be exciting to see if any of you already have an online portfolio.
