UAL art direction portfolio advice

Hi does anyone have any portfolio advice for the course Design for Art direction at UAL undergraduate please?
Im struggling so much for making a good looking, strong portfolio to get accepted at this uni but im so overwhelmed because I did only A level photography and I think im lacking some skills needed such as graphic design, branding, video etc does anyone know what should I add more than pics and some experimental photo manipulations that I have done?
Anyone who was accepted and what they had in their portfolios.
Thank you so much!!! 😩

Hiya! Not applying for art direction but I am applying for Film Practice, looking at the portfolio advice for that course id also maybe add some sketches/conceptual art as well just to show some range?/ this probably isn't much help sorry but good luck!!
