I started this a month or so ago and finally finished it, I don't really like it as much as I did but it has heavy meaning to it as I had created it after one of my friend's had a suicide attempt
I might touch it up in the future
This took about 3 hours and 50+ layers total (my poor tablet)
Why hello traveller! Welcome to my portfolio for Algonquin College's Animation program! I have been accepted after my 2nd attempt, and so now I upload my portfolio for future applicants to have a good reference for what the college accepts!
Unfortunately when I was applying, I could only find a handful of examples for this program, so now I will add myself to that collection.
Here is a link to the portfolio requirements:
Now we begin!
First up are gesture drawings! Warning for drawings of nude people, although there's nothing explicit.
2 minute
5 minute
Various times
Next are the long figure drawings!
The past 3 were actually drawn from lil' statues, so that's an option if you... happen to have nude statues? I dunno lol. I drew these in an art course.
Now my self portrait.
Page of hands and of feet
Try to really emphasize drawing with form in these.
Next are perspective drawings! It's recommended you have at least 2-3 examples for this.
I put these objects in just because I had em, they're not necessary. :)
Now for the fun part! Personals!
Finally we have the drawing aptitude test, and the Wendy action poses.
I'm not going to include my cover letter, but note that is a requirement as well.
Good luck to all those applying! If you happen to have little questions I'll try my best to answer them in my ask box, but I would always recommend going to the program coordinator for the most accurate information! They're info is at the bottom of the portfolio requirements pdf.
Another thing is it's a good idea to also apply to Algonquin's Foundations for Animation and Illustration program! (previously known as Pre-Animation) When I first got rejected I was accepted into Foundations and it really helped me strengthen my art to apply for animation! Also you don't even need a portfolio for it! It's just first come first served! :)
Capt ish and g outis are the two top dmg dealers (mostly) and my only lv 40 units so far so i think they should share a pipe and kiss (feat. the rest of my Leveled and Usable So Far units)
This year I applied for Sheridan's Bachelors of Animation in Oakville ! This is my second time applying (Last year i was rejected with an 82%) Ill update this post in late March with my scoresheet and wether i got in !
These are just snippets of the portfolio, you can see the full portfolio on my google slides
As an applicant its def been super helpful seeing past portfolios ! So i thought this might be able to help someone out in the future
