Applicants invited to interview for animation, graphic design, and any architecture / landscape architecture / urban design courses will need to prepare a portfolio to bring to the interview day.
A portfolio is a body of work that conveys your creativity, imagination, skills, ideas and intelligence. This might be shown through sketches, drawings, photography, animation, craft, 3D work or text. Generally, your portfolio can contain physical, digital, interactive, or screen-based work (see below for details).
