Portfolio plan

• What is your key piece of work? (The first thing that employers and universities will see when they open your portfolio)

• Do you have enough work to showcase a range of skills?

• Could you do a range of layouts and try out each so see what you think works best.

I want you to take some time and consider what you might include within your portfolio. I want a list of specifics included with your sketched out plan.

So rather than "I will create some 2D art".

You might write "I need more character design concepts as currently I am heavy on 2D environments. The ideas I have are a character in fantasy armour, this character will be an elf etc."
