My thought is put in thorough examples of story boarding so we can tell that you have a grasp of it. AND the amount should be no enough for us to gauge your ability. Hopefully you have at least what they are askjng for and more. Most students have films they're working on in school so that constitutes as original projects. You all need to show a beginning middle and end to the examples you show! <br />The number of gestures, character designs, and life drawings should be put in at your comfort level. But the boards you put in will matter most! <br /><br />Again- they specify numbers for people who may not know what to pit in- but if you all want to design your portfolios differently make sure you follow my advice here. You must have story board examples that are complete ideas.<br /><br />Good luck!Dave Pimentelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01296660254978195721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24963878.post-60718774907282808472011-03-06T18:09:05.431-08:002011-03-06T18:09:05.431-08:00Hello!I'd like to say you have great and aweso...Hello!I'd like to say you have great and awesone work on blog. I do have a concern about the program though. It asks for 10 -40 sketches of 2 or 3 original projects to put in the porfolio. Is there a format that applicants have to follow in presenting that section of work in the portfolio? for example 3 or 6 panels/sketches per page.<br />Id really appreciate your feedback on my question.Marilu Molinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12310001769141521810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24963878.post-22607681432179686812011-03-01T07:55:46.302-08:002011-03-01T07:55:46.302-08:00Kelipipo-
