Calarts Portfolio Questions
-
Hello everyone. I'm a little new here so please excuse if my questions sounds a little bit wierd.
So I'm planning to apply for Character Animation in Calarts this year but I had some questions regarding the porfolio:1.) I worked for a company where I did animation for an indie game called skullgirls that was released for xbox and ps3. Do you think it would be alright to put in a couple of works I did for the company, in the porfortlio? Or would that be called fanart still?
2.) In the portfolio requirements, it also said to have a completed sketchbook diary. What should be in the sketchbook diary? Mine consist of mostly scribbly gesture drawings and wherever i go to usually draw people. And some pages consists of sketches of pinups and original characters that I've created. THERE IS maybe one or two sketches of fanart in there, but would that be a big problem considering that 99% is original work?

1. If the animations are your original work and design and you have the rights, I would say it would be okay, but you may want to email admissions to make sure.
2. Your sketchbook sounds like the right idea. Observational quick sketches and any of your own ideas for characters/stories.
Good luck! I am a fellow applicant as well! :)
