Film

Filmmakers go into the world with a “reel” that showcases their best work and the professional direction that they want to take. You should, too. The default format for a reel is a DVD and you should seriously consider a website, as well.


VISUALIZE
Before you start your final portfolio hear what professionals have to say on the topic at PORTFOLIO TALK on iTunes U (Oasis login required), see what your colleagues are up to via WEB AGENT and CASE STUDIES and check out PORTFOLIO WIKI for terms and definitions.
