Portfolio

Hey everyone I know the blog has been kind of boring the past few weeks I just have been so busy that shows have been pushed aside. But since most of my readers are audio students at The Illinois Institute of Art i figured i would talk about what is talking up so much of my time and keeping me from all the shows. Portfolio review is this Wednesday the 27th and I am racing trying to get everything in order to present. My projects themselves are finished it is just the amount of paper work that is is required with everything that is the most time consuming. For those who don't know you need a total of ten projects for your portfolio at graduation time. Live to 2, MIDI, Radio Commercial, Synth, 8-16 track, 16-24 track, Live Sound, Sound Design, Business Plan, and a Senior Project. All these projects along with their proper paperwork need to be approved by your instructor before you are able to present at portfolio review. For those of you who are getting close to graduation do not slack on getting these projects finished. I like to think that i used my time well over the last two quarters and still I am here racing to get it all finished. So this all is just something for you to all keep in mind and hopefully no one has any problems getting their stuff done when its their turn to attend review. I will talk to you all next week and will be back talking about my experiences at shows again. Thanks for reading.

    I remember attending one of the portfolio reviews. They have each graduating student go up to the SSL console in Studio A to showcase and talk about their individual projects. The instructors in the room give you specific feedback on further improvements, changes, or a thumbs up for good work. It seems like it can be a bit nerve-wracking, but once you receive the good news that you have successful completed the audio program, I'm sure you will look back and feel proud of yourself.

    Thanks for that Zack, I definitely needed that reminder as to how soon I will be in your position and how much work I need to get done now.
