Additional Portfolio Information

The portfolio is your opportunity to demonstrate your passion and potential. Applicants are not required to have studied or have experience in the area(s) of their choice. Rather, applicants must demonstrate an aptitude for creativity which will highlight their ability.

 

Works included in your portfolio do not necessarily need to be finished works - the aim is to tell your story and demonstrate your interests and approaches to art and design.

 

We welcome diverse works in any medium - physical or digital. Examples include drawing, models/prototypes, websites, magazines, books, animation, video, photography, games, interactive apps, computer graphics, sound works, documentation of audio-visual or performance work, etc. Consider including other documents that demonstrate your interest and ability to think creatively and analytically about creative production (i.e. blogs, essays, presentation, posters).

  • your interest in and engagement with art, design, society and culture

  • the calibre of your portfolio: skills and ideas

  • evidence of ambitious, independent creative practice and thinking
