"A portfolio is a living and changing collection of records that reflect your accomplishments, skills, experiences, and attributes. It highlights and showcases samples of some of your best work, along with life experiences, values
And achievements. The personal information that you incorporate into your
portfolio can greatly reflect on your abilities as an individual as well as
Become a useful tool in marketing yourself to employers, corporations,
Colleges and universities. A portfolio does not take the place of a
resume, but
it can accentuate your abilities and what you can offer in the chosen
field."
this
is basically the definition of a portfolio it is used to show employers
or universities/ schools what kind of talents you possess in a certain
field, and how your creativity works! i do not have a portfolio myself
however i do not have the things required to make one, as i am studying
an art and design course i have nothing in the course that will help to
build a portfolio for music and singing/ performance, i'd have to study
performing arts and have videos and tracks of me singing/ performing, so
i thought creating a portfolio for art and design is pointless as i
have no interest in ding anything of the sort in the future.
reference:
this is a website of a performer i know, she used to be on tv as the 14
year old idol, her name is becki, but her stage name is beckii cruel,
she promotes her self via youtube, and going to different conventions, i
believe this is a way i would like to promote myself to become a famous
performer in the future, this is a print screen of her website, im not a
big fan of the lay out as it looks very simple and plain, as a
performer you want to show how creative and exciting you can be, this is
not a way i would go, i would add colour, and add small videos here and
there showing what i can do and little tasters of upcoming songs and
dances etc, i would say this is a professional portfolio to look up to
though as you cant find many people who wish to become a japanese idol
like i do, becki is just one of the few, and i do try to follow some of
the things she does so maybe i can make a better and more clear path for
myself!
this is another referance to another singer/ internet idol/ japanese
idol, this girl named kelsey/ kimono time is a little more known than
becki. she started off with dancing then began singing on youtube and at
conventions again like becki, however she has become famous in japan
like i would like too, she promotes herself with her website, as you can
see, she tells you all about her music, the events she is going too,
pictures also, youtube i say is her portfolio and her website is also
part of it, but its more to promote herself, i do like the way she has
done her website, it is alot more colourful, its beautiful and looks
professional for a performer, it has many different tabs that lead you
to the place you want to go, if i were to create a website i would use
this kind of style, adding a large picture of myself, my name and adding
a bunch of colour which looks good together and represents the type of
person you are, which i believe kelsey is very creative and bubbly like
her website.
the
portfolio websites i have found/ looked for are for those who wish to
become a singer/ idol in japan, these are the 2 i know of and the ones i
could easily find, i wish to display my portfolio like these either on a
colourful creative website, or even on youtube as i wish to sing and
dance, videos on youtube would be the best place to go.
