an you ignore it? You can’t. Layouts need to be SPECTACULAR. Maybe I need to do a separate post on layout tips, because I see more fails than I do successes. Go back to the sweatshirt analogy. Or the part about only being as good as your worst element. So think great graphics, a wellconsidered font, high quality imagery, consistency, white space, good quality paper, and a presentation style that is relevant to your work and yourself. This is a great time to get your graphic designer friends to help out. 7. 完美的展示。不要把最好的作品放在最后(面試官不一定會看完)。不要跟我爭論用“現(xiàn)實(shí)中的女性”做模特的問題。如果你寫作比較差,確保你寫的東西有人幫你看過。)確保你的錄像可以剪切,以防你需要一個20MB的視頻或者你需要刪除一些圖像。我曾經(jīng)見過Louise Wilson(中央圣馬丁藝術(shù)與設(shè)計學(xué)院MA的面試官)拒絕了一個申請者,因?yàn)槠渥髌房雌饋砗堋皭盒摹??! ?. Buy a good portfolio. And have a great digital version. A good portfolio is an indispensable tool for a fashion person. I suggest A4 or letter size (bigger makes you look studenty, although some schools will require this, see point 1. ) Choose something neutral (ie. black. No logos, no weird colours, no cheap binding, please.) Make sure it is very high quality and has sleeves where you can easily change the content, and how many pages are in the portfolio. Your portfolio will last you for years, which is why you want it to be neutral. Even though you might be obsessed with pink bows and lace now, you don’t want your portfolio to be pink and lacy, as you may end up being a menswear designer in five years. Expect to spend well into the three digits for a good portfolio and sleeves, but count this as an investment. I once saw Louise Wilson (course director on the MA at St. Martins) refuse an application because the portfolio looked “disgusting.” She didn’t even open it. But, I won’t deny she has a good point. What kind of person are you if you go to a job interview in a sweatsuit? The same type of person who puts their prized work into the portfolio equivalent of a sweatsuit. 3. 買一個好的作品集子(編者注:速寫本之類),要有很棒的電子版。(關(guān)于這一點(diǎn),確認(rèn)也要認(rèn)真閱讀學(xué)校的課程介紹。我曾經(jīng)幫助學(xué)生準(zhǔn)備作品集也評估過申請者的作品,所以我很高興可以給你一些建議?! i Alexandra, I’m wanted to know how should I prepare an entry portfolio for entering into a fashion course ?
