Industry Experts

Posted on: September 9, 2005

Industry Experts are working artists and media professionals we've lined up to give you practical advice on building and showing a portfolio in your field. Whether you're putting together a final portfolio presentation or just trying to decide what you could possibly show, a session with an industry expert will prove helpful.

Questions for your industry expert:

• What does a portfolio in my field look like?
• What format(s) do I need to be able to show my work in? (web, pdf, print, reel, etc.)
• How long should my portfolio be? or how many pieces should be in it?
• Is what I have now good enough right now to find work?
• What parts of my portfolio need more work?
• How do I get my portfolio in front of people in my field?

Eligibility

Juniors, seniors, graduate students and alumni within six months of their date of graduation are eligible to meet with an industry expert. Students are limited to one appointment per semester and appointments are made on a case-by-case basis.

We find that most of the above questions can be answered by one of our staff members so start by visiting us during our walk-in hours. If we can't get you going then we'll pair you up with an industry professional who can.
