For overseas design colleges, one needs to have an impeccable portfolio to get admissions as it is the basis on which they are judged. When students are in 12th grade they can apply abroad before their exam results are out with a projected score and letter of recommendation. Many universities ask for one of these scores – SAT, IELTS, TOEFL, or ACT. It varies from one university to another on which exam they want one to take. Among these, the most important aspect is the portfolio. A portfolio is a collection of a student’s best works that they have created in the past few years. It shows how an individual has developed an interest in design through sketches, drawings, etc. The portfolio reflects an individual’s passion and drives toward design. It should include works that represent their interests, skills, passion, willingness to explore and experiment, critical thinking, and design thinking.
In India, teenage students are unclear and unsure of the stream or profession they would wish to pursue till they reach 12th grade. As a result, many students end up in a fix on whether to choose Design as their professional field. Some students start working on their portfolios themselves and some don’t. Even students who have done work previously, need the help of experts to curate a complete, and striking portfolio that is unique and interesting depicting their personalities. And the students who haven’t, need to create an excellent portfolio in a very short amount of time. This is where Key Art N Design steps in. We guide and help students to create an A-grade portfolio showcasing the development of thought process, skill and creative abilities. We teach them to conquer their flaws and work on both their strengths and weaknesses in the design field. We turn our students into skilled creative thinkers who can shine and grow in the field of design.
Every portfolio is individualistic and reflects one’s life, culture, background. It is an illustration and visual representation of one’s life story presented to a university. We brainstorm and use different methodologies and give life to a thoroughly individualistic portfolio.
