Film reproduction BA portfolio advice

I am currently working towards my film production portfolio, could anyone advise me on how to structure it, and possibly send me a strong example?

I am looking at going to Bournemouth and Falmouth, so if anyone else is going there, I would love to get in touch :smile:

Are you putting together a showreel?
Most universities will have rules about the length of a showreel. The important thing for any showreel is to make it clear what YOU did on each snip of footage - if you just did the editing or scriptwriting or camera work or lighting etc etc then you need to be clear. Also less IS more with a showreel. If it's over 30 seconds then use chapters to make it clear to anyone viewing it that there's different work in there: https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/9884579?hl=en-GB
