Creative Portfolio
What to include in the digital version
• Include a title with your name
• Start with the material most relevant to your chosen degree path/job application – for example TV.
• For moving image you should include at least one clip from each project that you have undertaken. You can include more if you had different roles or created a greater variety of content. For example, if you were camera operator on Indie East, you would include a clip that showcases your camera work. If you were also part of a VT team, you should also include a clip from that.
• Clips should be approx. 10-20 seconds, although this can change depending on the nature of the clip – don’t cut someone off mid-sentence!
• Each clip should also include the following information:
o Name of the project: e.g. Indie East, music magazine show
o Your role: e.g. autocue camera operator
o TX date & broadcaster (if applicable): e.g. TX November 2016, Mustard TV
o Where exhibited (if applicable): e.g. Playhouse Art Exhibition, November 2016
o Clients/collaborators (if applicable): e.g. Epic Studios & Mustard TV
o Any other info that is relevant (e.g. competition entry)
• Balance the sound between each clip (transitions) and ensure that it is all playing at the same level.
• You can add soundtrack to clips with no sound if you like, but do not shove a soundtrack under everything. We need to be able to hear what you have captured.
• As the showreel progresses, move through the different types of projects you have created, such as TV, drama, promotional film, live events filming, photography, graphics, animation. You should prioritise this according to your degree/job selection. You do not have to include everything – maintain the level of quality.
• Audio only clips should be accompanied by a graphic/logo/some form of imagery that connects to the clip.
• For still images you can have them appear like a slideshow or you can be more adventurous, just make sure that the work is visible and properly showcased.
What to include in the hard copy
• Firstly, you can take your existing assessment portfolios as evidence of the full process. You may want to create a secondary portfolio that contains a bit of every project.
• Use a professional portfolio (for example, the zip case ones) and print your material on the correct quality paper, etc.
• Again, start with the most relevant area, for example, photography.
• At the top of each section give the title of and explain each project/exhibition/TX/etc.
• Explain the key research/ideas/collaborators
• Include full size images/relevant text – for example - copywriting
• For each project select 2/3/4 of the best images – be selective
• If you want to include stills from moving image, do so through PP (snapshot), rather than screenshot
• You can include extracts from scripts or other documents, if you would like, keep it to the point.
