I appreciated the Parting tip on which to prioritize and the clarification on combining these concepts. It may have been obvious to most but I tend to think literally. Mentioning a set amount of pages to build a portfolio off of also gives us a measurable goal to aim for. The advice on what not to include was something I never thought to ask but was just as valid as the recommended content. Learned a lot from this class and was given a clearer direction on what pieces I should focus on. Thanks a bunch guys :)

Very easy to follow, I can see what I am missing and what I can do better in presenting my portfolio. Great examples and Q&A at the end.

Very interesting and informative class. I am trying to develop my own portfolio and it gave some clear direction on what to include. I especially liked the idea of combining categories in one picture. Very informative and entertaining class. It kept my interest all the way to the end.

nice talk and list to consider to put on my portfolio. Lots of things I didn't think of before and now I get more ideas.

Thanks so much for putting this together. There were lots of great tips and examples. Anyone looking to polish their portfolio for this market should definitely watch this!

Excellent list and reasoning about what you need in your portfolio.

Hi guys, I just wanted to say I loved this class. Lots of food for thought for a person who has made art on and off all her life but is only getting back into it with serious and haughty aspirations to make a serious go of it. Thank you for all the imagery that made clear what the words were saying. Especially useful were the ‘20 pages’, how many to a page, combine the ideas into one image, leave clear or light coloured areas for text - all those handy practical tips. I’m concurrently reading ‘How to be an illustrator’ by Darrel Rees which has a terrific chapter on producing a portfolio. In tandem all of this information makes complete sense and given me lots of ideas as to the subject matter I can now start putting together. You guys are laid back yet incisive and varied enough with your opinions to have covered most bases. Thanks again and at some point, probably fairly soon, I’ll likely subscribe to get access to all the classes. I’m loving your podcasts and wishing they’d come out faster than they have been! Full of useful information. This reminds me to go and leave a review as requested :) Cheers from Australia, Tig Beswick

I have heard other illustrators cover this topic, but this video is the most comprehensive as far as all the things you want to make sure are in there to show agents. Thank you so much for putting this list together and showing great examples!

Well I just bought a domain for my website and was really thrilled to upload my illustration when I started this course...so now I deleted everything and started working on real quality illustrations. I won't make the website public until I have at least 10 pieces of good work to show. Even though it is a 1 hour course, it is really consistent and helpful. I really want to send my portfolio out to agents and art directors so I need to put my head to work based on what you guys said. Thanks again.

I thought this was concise and well explained! Very, very helpful! Thank you!

Thanks for the advice and insight into this topic! I find this information very valuable.

If your a little lost what you need to draw for your portfolio then this is definitely the video to watch. Will lists his areas that you need to cover in your portfolio clearly. Very helpful.

This list will give you a focus when you don't know what to illustrate for your portfolio. Will also shows us great portfolio examples. Thank you for this very informative course! -Miriam

Again, another great talk. I couldn't think of anything to add. Will covered it all.

If you stuck thinking what else can I include in my portfolio, how can I improve it - here are tons of answers. Great video.

As someone who is getting ready for the SCBWI fall conference and assembling my portfolio, this is timely and needed advice. The list is great and I've already started thinking about things that I don't have currently in my artwork. Thanks guys. Daniel Sorensen

I was overwhelmed when I seen the list, but watching the video I could see exactly why the list would be useful. The video was helpful and informative and I was able to review what I have for my portfolio and clear see what needs work and what by some happy reason I got some of them right. So in the end loved it and I have some direction. On to the next one.

Great information! Thanks so much.
