I am hoping to go to TAFE next year to do a diploma of photography. Part of the entry requirements is obviously having a portfolio - but I am not sure how to go about getting one - any help would be greatly apprectiated... This is a little bit of information I have got:
--------------------------------------------------------
Submission of a folio relating to Photography.
FOLIO SPECIFICATIONS
Folio Format
The work should be submitted flat (ie. not rolled) in a clear A4 size clear page folder. Work submitted in postal tubes will not be assessed.
Content
10-15 works of photographically based images, including 4-5 images on set themes.
Work may be in the format of:
- Black & White/Colour Prints
- Transparencies (Slides)
and/or
Digitally produced
Processing and Printing need not have been done by applicant.
Folio will be assessed on the following criteria:
Visual Communication
- Shape
- Space
- Form
- Appropriateness of media for fulfilling aims
Innovation and Experimentation
- Originality of concepts
- Development of personal imagery
- Evidence of risk taking and exploratory approaches to images, materials and media
Formal Elements
- Manipulation of formal elements
--------------------------------------------------------
I basically want to know things like
- what sort of photos should I include - any ideas on themes?
- what size should I have the photos printed at? (I was thinking 6x8 so it would neatly fit on a A4 page)
- how it should be presented? Will I need to include a written piece?
Please let me know if you have any advice on how to go about this - I need to have my portfolio submitted by september.
Thanks!
