Portfolio And skills/mediums used



Methods and skills used to create my portfolio. MY portfolio is mainly based around illustrative design and I have also included photography and sketches/drawings. One of the main skills i am demonstrating is being able to apply design knowledge to create digital illustration work (using Adobe Illustrator) I am trying to show a general design knowledge and express my creativity and style while doing so. Some colleges have also asked for a written piece of work and i have submitted this to demonstrate my communication skills as well as my technical grammatical, spelling, and literature abilities

Resource Plan




Evaluation

My resource plan does go far to help me because it includes lots of linked information but crucially a wide range of locations available to me because, Taking a gap year and then going to university leaves me with a lot of options on places I could potentially live and work. Through this plan i wish to experience as many places, organisations and job roles I can. I know now from my plan that i can potential get a role as an intern which would mean i could benefit from a wide range of different jobs and experiences whilst developing industry relevant skills. Although my plan does focus on career opportunities after University, so because of this I will need to re visit this plan often to make sure it is suited to the current time frame and that specific jobs and website I have researched are still relevant.
I do also have a contingency plan which would include going to Univerisity to study graphic design at higher than degree level and take the educational route so I could become a tutor/teacher. This is something i have factored into my choice of course and university because i have looked into progression options after degree level and feel this would be a rewarding and enjoyable back up plan.
