I need to make a portfolio for graphic design course?

Question

i have never really made a portfolio before and im not too sure what im going to put in it. there's a few bits of artwork that i have done that might be right for it. like a gig poster for my band. but apart from that im not sure. im guessing i should put stuff in that reflects my skills. what kind of work should i put in it?

Answer 1

Put in a bit of everything. Your lecturer will need to see the range of your skills, as it's a course and not a job it won't matter if every things not 'perfect', you're there to learn! but do try and use your best work of course =]. And make sure its neat and presentable, try putting your work into sections.
