In this Virtual demonstration, Art Educator Daylen Luchsinger and fourth year Emily Carr student Karl Hipol will demonstrate and discuss their approaches to completing required projects for University Application Portfolios. Based off of Emily Carr University’s portfolio criteria, Daylen and Karl will introduce the concept of using Process Based Project to develop one’s portfolio. They will elaborate on, and demonstrate their approaches to, using images to tell a personal story as well as ways of completing sketches and building maquettes for public sculpture ideas. This will be a wonderful opportunity to ask questions about portfolio applications for Art-focused Post-Secondary, gain some perspective from an Art student, and see examples of the caliber of projects these institutes are looking for from applicants.
