haha it was sort of funny though. As i know people that are struggling to find things to put in their portfolios and i'm just like... I have tooooooooooo much!!! Makes it hard to narrow down. I'm pretty sure I won't get an interview though. Although when I opened up the box I put my stuff in everything was moved around... like a lot.
No that's a good idea. I'd say 98% of the ones I saw where A1 portfolios and they will have put their work on it too. I have heard people have gotten in just with photographed work. So it will be okay, as long as you photographed it well.
I just tried to show I had conceptual ideas, although I didn't explain any of them... woops. I tried to show I had style and art was important to me as I'd practiced it everyday. It was difficult I suppose. I also tried to be varied at the same time. I didn't put any life drawing in though... I remember at the talk I had there they said "if you're not interested in doing it as a piece for yourself, don't put it in." So I left it out. So I just put it all the things I practice daily: Sculpture, illustration. I did 4 pages of photography... but I'm not sure they're too generic.

I think what I was trying to show was myself? does that make sense. Like the things I felt most related to me and what I could talk about.
I think what will have let me down is my bad presentation.... I mean it was pretty awful. haha
What about you?
