Portfolio Pit Stop :: PWP #3

By Chris Oatley

DSC_0206-300x229We’re back with a special Paper Wings Podcast!

Chris & Lora were together in L.A. this week, so we decided to take a detour from our planned schedule and do a LIVE episode.

Instead of releasing Part 2 of our portfolio episode this week, we used Episode 3: PORTFOLIO PIT STOP to answer some of the many listener questions we received.

Listen in to hear our thoughts on:

Do the principles we discussed about animation portfolios apply when assembling a freelance illustration portfolio? Are “leave behinds” a good idea? How do you brand yourself online and make your portfolio stand out in the digital realm? What should you wear to an interview? What if I can’t attend comic conventions? And more!

We also take the opportunity to share our (mis)adventures on the California coast, and discuss our vision for Paper Wings– specifically the Paper Wings Talent Exchange Program!

And don’t forget to subscribe to the newsletter to receive details about a chance to win one of three Intuos4 Tablets from WACOM, the first Paper Wings Challenge sponsor! Newsletter subscribers will get the contest rules FIRST, before the next episode is released. So sign up today!
