There is not one right way to make a portfolio
In fact, the very essence of a portfolio is that it is personal and reflects your story, your skills and your creative potential. Still, we have gathered 6 tips for how to make a good portfolio. Below you can find a portfolio example from each of the focus areas People, Planet, Play.
6 tips
- Show your range and how you are able to work with different materials, themes and techniques.
- Process is more important than perfection. Include some of your unfinished work to give us an idea of how you research, experiment and develop ideas.
- Create a strong narrative with a powerful beginning and ending that one remembers.
- Be determined. If you have a particular piece that you don’t quite know how to explain, leave it out. Your ability to select from and edit your own work is important.
- Put your vision and how you work into words; brief passages to guide us through your creative process.
- Show us what you want us to see, not what you think we want to see. Your personality, your individuality and your passion are your most valuable strengths.
