I’m currently a college student taking a 1 year arts & design program to help me figure out what I would like to strictly focus on studying, Ive made up my mind and have applied to several schools for Graphic Design for september 2010. All the colleges require a portfolio with 10-15 of my best work
WHAT DO YOU RECOMMEND I PUT IN IT OR START CREATING? I need to startsoon, the portfolio is due in 2 months. help please, any suggestions or examples would be greatly appreciated.
I used to focus strictly on canvas and ink painting, but I really have a passion and interest for graphic design now.
Besides having some kind of logo design /photoshop work Is it acceptable to include still life pencil drawings, 1,2,3 point perspective sketches and abstract art work?
Logos of made up companies, corporate suites (letter heads, envelopes, business cards), package designs (cd’s), menus, drawings and sketches that shows a range of style. The site below is of a graphic design portfolio website.
